i really just want to play games

Chapter 349 The prototype of the new mainframe war
Generally speaking, there were no accidents recently, and everything was running smoothly under Chen Tiancai's plan.

The only thing worth mentioning is that An Qinghuan has recently become obsessed with the low-light development machine, not only started to make some weird paintings on it, but also designed her own small games to play.

Chen Tiancai naturally went to accompany her when he had time, but after getting to know An Qinghuan's lively and playful side, seeing her squatting at home for two months made Chen Tiancai feel a kind of love in her. new traits.

The new year is approaching, and the biggest news in the past few months is the official release of the old Ren's next-generation console.

Regarding this console, although Chen Tiancai had already seen its true appearance, after getting the retail version, he still felt that Lao Ren had not changed and was still the same manufacturer that only wanted to make good games.

Nothing more than that. Lao Ren’s new console still looks pretty good. Even because of the advancement of technology in recent years, it no longer has the strong toy feel of the original. But in terms of quality control, Chen Tiancai still feels that there are some points that should be complained about. .

But this is also a common fault of Lao Ren. Without these minor faults, Chen Tiancai would not be used to it.

But generally speaking, the old Ren's new host is quite durable, which is one of the few advantages of the old Ren's host.

Take the first NS that Chen Tiancai bought as an example. After playing for five or six years, he finally switched to the latest battery life version.

There is no problem with the machine itself, and even the supporting JOY-CON in Chen Tiancai's hand did not have the problem of the handle floating.

This is not because Chen Tiancai is lucky, but that he spends most of his time in console mode, and the operating devices he uses are all PRO controllers.

"However, now that we have entered the VR era, Old Ren is really a genius." Chen Tiancai touched the display device on the outermost layer of the new console, and felt that Lao Ren was really a genius in splitting the structure of the console.

Of course, the new host continues the successful design of NS, that is, the detachable handle screen, but this time the old console seems to be addicted to playing spin-offs, and directly treats the screen as a peripheral, which can be removed by players.

The original method of using the host mode is no longer to have another box, but to directly pull out the screen, buckle it on the machine in reverse, and then connect the cable to enter the host mode.

The size of this console is also much larger than that of the NS. To Chen Tiancai's naked eyes, it is almost 30.00% larger than the original NS.

However, due to the narrow bezel design, the screen looks almost the same as an eight-inch tablet. Even because of the unprecedented use of an OLED screen, the display effect and picture detail of this new console are much better than the PS5 played with an ordinary monitor. .

However, due to its size, the overall picture performance of the new console is still not as good as that of a console as large as the PS5. However, after testing by Anthem Technology, the picture of Lao Ren's new console is only slightly worse than the PS5.

In terms of other technologies, the old man did not let go, and ray chasing and the latest graphics technology also came into play.

And because of these improvements, it can be said that the screen of this new host has not lost too much in the era of PS5.

But the most amazing thing about the new console is not in these aspects, but after adjusting the console to console mode and combining the supporting equipment in the new console, the new console will instantly enter VR mode.

Yes, it is strange to plug the host screen backwards, but after seeing the two small holes on the back of the host and the matching VR combination equipment, you will feel that Lao Ren's imagination is definitely richer than your imagination.

VR has also made some progress in the past two years. Whether it is technology or content, it has also gained a lot of support. Especially after the birth of several epoch-making VR games, this industry that was originally abandoned has regained its new life.

"It's a pity." After Chen Tiancai tried the VR mode of the old Renxin console, he felt that although the current VR development is still very good, compared to the low-light console, it is still like a child's toy.

Once the Micro-Light console is released, it will certainly have a huge impact on VR. After all, the same experience is provided by the Micro-Light console, which is even better. You can play the Micro-Light console for about the same price and add more than 1000 yuan to it, and players will also use it. Money chooses who is the future.

However, the low-light host certainly cannot replace VR all at once.

After all, after so many years of development, VR has also accumulated a large number of users and content. In three to two years, before the official popularization of low-light hosts, this market can still be maintained.

Moreover, the low-light host will not have a great impact on the new host of the old Ren, because the old Ren has always promoted the sales of the host with his own unique games, and even from the perspective of more and more magical shapes and functions, the old Ren Ren also uses uniqueness to open up his own market.

Therefore, in the past few console generations, Laoren's console has never participated in competition with consoles such as PS5, and has also followed a differentiated route.

No matter how powerful the Weiguang console is, its usage scenario is still in the living room, and it is not as portable as the previous generations of consoles.

That is to say, in the future, when the Vivolight host is born, the two parties that will be most affected may be Suo Dafa and Microsoft.

The console business is not the main business for Microsoft, and their market share has always been the same. Maybe they have been looking forward to disruptive products like the Micro-Light console, which can make the water in the console market even more muddy.

For Suo Dafa, this is of course an extremely huge challenge, because comparing its own products with the Vivolight host, it is obviously not a one-dimensional thing, and their position will usher in the biggest challenger since the birth of PS.

However, the timing of the release of the low-light host is very clever, because at this time the PS5 has been on sale for more than four years, and the total sales volume has exceeded 6000 million. It is not difficult for sales to exceed 8000 million.

This sales volume is already very saturated for the console market, and it also shows that Suo Dafa has once occupied a large share of this generation of game consoles.

With such a huge user base, coupled with the content advantages they have accumulated for five or six years, to be honest, in Chen Tiancai's opinion, if a player is out of budget, he will definitely be more inclined to choose PS5.

This is a very simple and normal behavior, which Chen Tiancai can easily predict as an old player.

There is no other reason, that is, which console I bought, I can play those wonderful masterpieces.

In terms of content, the new Shimmer host is indeed a weak point. At that time, there will be at most three to five content produced by Zange Network itself.
