Rebirth 1984: Starting with the development of Hanka

Wang Jizhi smiled, looked around at everyone, and continued: "Next, I want to focus on introducing the 'Tomahawk'. "

"First of all, "Tomahawk" is a 16-bit home game console, using the Kirin 2 processor designed by Wujiang Group! Its computing speed reaches 8 MIPS. In other words, "Tomahawk" can process eight million machine language instructions per second! The CPU's high-speed operation cache is 4KB. "

"Secondly, "Tomahawk" has a special integrated graphics card, but our company calls it GPU, that is: graphics processor! Its maximum color number is: 16 colors (777-bit true color), and the display resolution is: 216x24 to 256x224 pixels! "

Many people in the audience were a little confused after listening to it, and they didn't know how serious it was... Anyway, the more people don't understand what you say, the more awesome you appear.

But people in the industry are very aware of the power of these data, and they can't help but look shocked.

Wang Jizhi paused deliberately at this time, coughed twice to attract everyone's attention, and then said loudly: "Everyone, what I am going to say next is the biggest feature of the "Tomahawk". It is different from other brands of home game consoles in that it no longer has an interface for game cartridges, but is replaced by a CD-ROM drive, that is, an optical drive. Game cartridges only have a storage capacity of tens of MB, while CD-ROMs have a storage capacity of about 600MB. This allows Wujiang Game Company to produce large-scale games more calmly and conveniently! "

Wang Jizhi paused, smiled slightly, and asked: "Which game do you think is more well-made, a game with a size of tens of MB or a game with a size of 500 to 600 MB?"

Generally speaking, of course, games that are several hundred MB are more well-made.

People think so in their subconscious minds. After all, a game of several hundred MB takes a long time to produce, so of course it needs to be more sophisticated.

At this time, every guest at the press conference was shocked.

You know, in the era of 8-bit game consoles, the size of game software was usually only tens of KB, or a few MB. Games exceeding ten MB were considered relatively large games.

However, when the "Tomahawk" game console came out, it directly gave you hundreds of MB of games. Are you shocked?

Regardless of whether the game is fun or not, people will subconsciously think that a game with such a large capacity must be awesome and fun!

The audience suddenly became noisy.

Players who watched the live broadcast couldn't help but feel excited, and were full of expectations for the new game that Wujiang will release soon!

Of course, some people are happy and some are worried.

Competitors such as Nintendo and Sega were almost crying in the toilet.

This is no longer normal competition. It’s entirely our own company’s products that are being beaten by Wujiang’s “Tomahawk”!

"How...how is this possible???" Pu Yamauchi's face was full of decadence.

Not to mention that Wujiang Group was the first to release a 16-bit home game console before Nintendo, I never expected that the design of "Tomahawk" would be so advanced and bold, and it would even use CD-ROM technology.

However, Nintendo's 16-bit game console SFC (Super Famicom) is still stuck in the era of game cartridges, and the size of games is only a few dozen MB at most.

"It's over. SFC died before it started. It can't compete with the "Tomahawk" game console! ! ! "Yamauchi Pu shouted, heartbroken and heartbroken.

Right now, if sfc is released, it will definitely disappoint countless players.

If Nintendo wants to regain its dominance of home game consoles, it must also develop a game console with an optical drive!

However, this is basically a redesign of a console.

Without a year or two, Nintendo would have no way to launch a product.

After such a long time, the day lily has become completely cold.

Wujiang Game Company’s “Tomahawk” home game console has already occupied the market...

At this moment, Hiroshi Yamauchi felt desperate, with white hair and a late hero.

As he likes to read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he can't help but think of a sentence: If Yu is born, how can Liang be born.

At this time, he couldn't help but feel something: "If Nintendo is born, how can it be without borders?!"

"Puff".

The person fainted and high blood pressure came up, causing Hiroshi Yamauchi to feel dizzy and black-eyed, and fell to the ground.

This scene shocked everyone...

……

All the executives of Sega gathered together to watch the live broadcast of the press conference of Borderless Games.

Everyone's expressions were very serious and melancholy.

Borderless "Tomahawk" beats Sega MD. If this ax blows, Sega MD will probably say "goodbye" to the market.

"Don't panic, everyone. Wujiang Group uses the latest optical drive technology, but as far as I know, the speed of the optical drive is very slow, only 150KB/S. The speed we use with game cartridges is much faster than it. The advantage is mine!" At this time! , an engineer suddenly shouted excitedly.

When everyone heard this, they immediately reacted.

"That's right, the speed is only 150KB/S. It's hard to change a large map. If you start playing games, it will definitely not be smooth!"

"Yes, Ichiro Ono is right, we still have an advantage!"

Everyone comforted themselves at this time.

Back at the press conference, Wang Jizhi signaled everyone to be quiet, and then introduced: "At present, the speed of optical drives is generally only 150KB/S. If it is used to read large games, the speed is a little slow. However, after our developers Our improvements have now increased the speed of the optical drive to a quadruple speed optical drive!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Sega office suddenly became silent. Everyone looked at each other in embarrassment, and a heavy atmosphere filled the room...

"I didn't expect Wujiang Group to be so powerful and improve the optical drive by 4 times. As far as I know, even the inventors of CD, Philips and Sony, the optical drives they developed only have a speed of 150KB/S." Ichiro Ono said in a low voice. , defend yourself.

At this moment, senior executives of Sony and Philips were also watching Wujiang's press conference. They never expected that Wujiang Group would be ahead of them and develop a four-times speed optical drive, and they all found it incredible.

The inventor of this technology is not as powerful as outsiders, which is embarrassing.

Wang Jizhi approached the big screen behind him, pointed at the photo, and introduced: "Look, there is the CD drive in the center. Open the cover upwards. There is a round button on the right side of the drive cover. Press it to open the drive cover. There are two circular buttons, one large and one small, on the left side of the optical drive cover. The large button is the power button, which is responsible for turning the machine on and off. The small button is the hot reset button. In front of it are the sockets for the two handles, and there are memory slots above each handle. The card socket. Directly behind are the sockets for the AV cable and power cord. Depending on the model, the sockets for the AV cable also increase or decrease."

"Oh, by the way, our "Tomahawk" home game console can also be used as a music CD player, it can play music CDs. Like most CD players, "Tomahawk" can play CD songs randomly, play songs in order, repeat a single song or repeat the entire CD, which is very powerful..."

Good guy, as soon as these words came out, it brought a big surprise to everyone. Now not only gamers want to buy the "Tomahawk" game console, but even music lovers want to buy the "Tomahawk" game console.

In fact, if Wujiang Group wants to, it can also let "Tomahawk" play VCD videos. It only needs to install an MPEG-1 decoder on the "Tomahawk" motherboard.
