2561【Game console】
With the strong recommendation of Tianxia Technology, Sony and Sega have successively decided to refer to the genius operating system in the development of the new generation of hosts.
Nintendo still has its own concerns about using the genius operating system, and ultimately chooses to develop its own operating system.
Sony and Sega chose the genius operating system of World Technology because they saw the future blueprint drawn for them in summer.
If the game console uses the genius operating system, the game console will no longer be just a console that can play games. It can also access the network through wide belts, browse the web, watch videos, enjoy music, and even chat and interact with friends...
In this way, the entertainment function of the game console is stronger and becomes the core component of home entertainment. This is exactly the final idea of game companies such as Sony, Sega, and Nintendo.
If you do not use mainstream operating systems, but develop your own operating system, it will take time, effort and money. Even if you can develop it, the link with the outside world will not be smooth.
First of all, web browsers were still high-end technology in the 1990s. The web browser developed by Netscape Company was sold at the time at the time for as high as $19, and it was still used by a large number of users.
It was not until Tianxia Technology and Microsoft launched free web browsers in their operating systems that Netscape's browser lost its market.
It was not easy for Nintendo to develop its own web browser at that time.
...
Secondly, video and audio have different formats, and each format has its own unique decoder. Among them, the genius operating system has the highest support for video and audio.
Because this system is free and open source, many video and audio manufacturers develop devices and software on the genius operating system.
In addition, many computer geniuses around the world are willing to develop smoother, more energy-saving and better picture players for the genius operating system, which also makes the genius operating system the best support for audio and video.
Indos-player player, the audio and video formats supported by indos are relatively limited. If you want to play audio and video in other formats, you must install the corresponding decoder. These decoders are not all free.
The free decoders are provided by the open source community. When it comes to open source software, most of them are related to the genius operating system. Therefore, indos is always not as good as the genius operating system in terms of video and audio support.
For example, the famous ffmpeg was developed on the Linux system in his previous life and was a free and open source software.
Nintendo develops its own operating system, so its support for video and audio formats will definitely be worse. In this way, many formats of video and audio cannot be watched, which will make players less happy.
If Sony and Sega use the genius operating system, they can get the best video and audio format support. At that time, players will have a large amount of audio and video resources to enjoy.
...
Three things, online video technology, is not something that Nintendo can develop casually.
Nowadays, the Internet speeds around the world are very low. Under this situation, how to ensure smooth online video and clear voice calls is a very big problem.
The p2p technology currently being developed by Genius Laboratory can solve this problem.
It treats each game host as a node server. In this way, tens of millions of game hosts are equivalent to tens of millions of node servers.
With so many servers connected together, their bandwidth, computing power and storage space are extremely large, comparable to the world's most advanced supercomputers.
In this way, whether you are watching videos online, listening to music or chatting with videos, it will be much faster and more effective.
...
Because of so many advantages, Sony and Sega finally decided to use the genius operating system in the new generation of game consoles.
However, in order to avoid cross-platform migration of games, they also proposed to transform the genius operating system.
In this way, games on Sony consoles cannot be ported to Sega's console, nor can they be ported to computers with genius systems installed, effectively preventing the occurrence of stolen saka.
Xia Tian also supported this and specially sent experts to communicate with them. By the way, he would charge a technical service fee. After all, experts were not sent in vain, and Tianxia Technology's patented technology was not given for free.
...
The reason why Nintendo chose to develop its own system was mainly because he was worried that Sony's Ps incident would happen again.
The last time, it was confused and chose to cooperate with Sony to develop a new host, but Sony secretly learned the host development technology.
This time, when they cooperated with Tianxia Technology to develop an operating system for a new console, many of the secrets will also be seen by Tianxia Technology. Based on their cooperation experience, they are likely to launch their own game consoles. In this way, Nintendo will have another competitor.
As the saying goes, walking together is like an enemy country, Nintendo naturally does not want multiple people to come and grab food. Moreover, the strength of Tianxia Technology in the gaming industry also makes it very afraid.
Game companies such as Square, ea, Ximu, and Maxis are now under the leadership of Tianxia Technology. If it wants to develop new consoles, it will not worry about not having games released.
However, it just doesn't know how to develop a game console yet. Once it figures out the development process of the game console, I believe it will be launched soon.
The financial strength and R&D strength of Tianxia Technology are very good. Once you understand the development process, it is not difficult to copy it. Therefore, Nintendo must not give it this opportunity.
In fact, if Xia Tian knew that Nintendo was worried about this, he would be willing to sign a guarantee letter with it to ensure that Tianxia Technology would never develop game consoles.
Because developing a game console, in his opinion, it is really not a good deal.
The investment in developing game consoles is very large. Microsoft spent 100 million US dollars to improve the controller of xbox-one. Moreover, game consoles are not profitable, they have to make money by selling games and taking commissions from them.
If the console sales are not high and no one buys the game, then you will definitely lose money.
Back then, Sega almost went bankrupt because of the failure of multiple consoles. In the end, he did not dare to develop game consoles, but became a game developer honestly.
Compared to developing game consoles, Xia Tian is more interested in developing mobile phones and enhancing the game performance of mobile phones.
You should know that as one of the world's largest game companies, Nintendo's profit for a whole year was only 6.3 billion yuan, which is the best level in history.
The mobile game "King C Glory" of Tencent Xun creates nearly 10 billion yuan in profits for the company in a year. That is to say, the profits created by a mobile game are much more profitable than those consoles and games of Nintendo.
