"The cooperation between Sony and Daqian is over!" This was the first reaction of all the reporters when they saw the news.
Although Daqian and Sony had never announced anything, everyone knew that Daqian and Sony had been staying out of each other's business. Daqian and Sony were in the handheld market, and Daqian and Sony were in the PC market. They shared all the game resources, and all the games could be downloaded freely from both platforms. Their cooperation was as good as one company.
Almost all the reporters and media had forgotten that Da Qian was the one who represented Nintendo to cause trouble for Sony during the PS1.
Just when all the reporters thought that Sony and Daqian would continue their cooperation, Sony suddenly attacked Daqian.
Many reporters sighed. The gaming industry was in turmoil. Daqian and Microsoft had just finished their fight, and the world's number one internet company had become a second-tier company. Now, they are going to fight with Sony. Why were all the companies in the gaming industry so inharmonious?
Well, the reason was simple. Daqian and Boss Jia had been developing the industry, and this world's gaming industry had a higher output than the other world.
In the other world, 2001, the global gaming industry's annual output was less than 80 billion USD.
However, in Mr. Jia's hands, the global gaming industry had exceeded 120 billion USD in 2001, and it was still increasing.
Based on this number alone, the gaming industry had already become the 18th industry in the world. Ahead of it were petroleum, chemical, finance, telecommunications, automotive, and other traditional industries that were very strong.
The gaming industry was still growing, and in 2001, the online gaming industry was rising rapidly, becoming the new star of the market.
According to many people's predictions, by the year 2020, the global gaming industry's total value would likely exceed three hundred billion USD. By then, whoever could control the biggest slice of the pie would be the king of the new era!
Because of this, Sony was getting greedy for Daqian's handheld market, and it was reasonable for them to intervene. After all, it was all about money.
After a while, Ryōki Ken began to explain the data of his PSP, such as the resolution of the display, the computing speed of the graphics card, and so on. He didn't say much about the specifics. Anyway, all the data was ahead of the Daqian's Qianji.
Or rather, the word 'in the lead' was too restrained. It would be rude to directly say that he had crushed them.
Just like how the Qian Ji Palmtop had crushed the GB Palmtop many years ago, the PSP was also crushing the Qian Ji Palmtop.
In the end, Ryogi Ken also ridiculed the Daqian's Qianji Changshou for many years without any improvements and changes, and it had already lost its initiative.
"Looks like the handheld industry is really going to change."
"That's true. Thousand Trickery Transformation's table manners are indeed ugly. There hasn't been any improvements to its skills!" The reporters in the audience also ridiculed Ryogi Ken. They were also gamers, and they had realized that with the introduction of all kinds of new games, the Qianji Changshou's performance could not keep up with the new games. They were already unhappy with the Qianji Changshou.
Ryogi Ken nodded in satisfaction after hearing the complaints from the audience. He then pretended to be mysterious and said: "Everyone, actually, this time, we will be using an unprecedented super function on the PSP!"
"Super function!" This sentence immediately attracted a lot of media attention. After a long time, Ryomiki Ken revealed that the screen of the PSP this time was actually a touchscreen, so the entire PSP actually supported the touchscreen function. This also meant that the PSP could bring the touchscreen gaming experience into the entire PSP handheld.
When this news was announced, the audience was excited again.
Although touchscreens were not considered high-tech, and touchscreens were already used in some devices in the early 1990s. But Sony's use of touchscreens on the PSP was still shocking.
This was because the touchscreen technologies in the past were usually limited to a large screen, and it must be at least 13 inches in size. Also, the initial touchscreens were not capacitive, but infrared touchscreens.
Infrared touchscreens were easier to implement, and the cost was lower. But the shortcomings were obvious. The screen must be big enough to install infrared components.
Secondly, the screen must have a high resolution. More accurately, the screen must have a low resolution. Once the screen's resolution was high, it would be easy to make mistakes, leaks, slow reactions, etc.
All in all, the touchscreen technologies in use now were not suitable for gaming consoles.
Ryogi Ken said that Sony was using the latest resistive touchscreen technology. It uses a small screen and is sensitive to touch!
Anyway, Yoshiaki Ken was bragging about his resistive touch screen. Then, Yoshiaki Ken demonstrated the process of using the touch screen … He first took out a small plastic pen from the side of the PSP, then slightly swiped on the screen, and a straight line immediately appeared on the screen.
After that, it didn't take long for Ryomiken to use a pen to write the word "game" on the screen, which made all the audience gasp in amazement. This technology was really too powerful!
Everyone was impressed by Sony's technology. Although they were overtaken by Daqian in a short period of time, it seems that Sony will be the winner this time.
At the same time, the reporters were curious about the PSP's lineup. After all, Qian Ji Bian was the dominant player in the handheld market. If any game company dares to develop a game for the PSP, they will offend Daqian Qian Ji Bian.
What kind of game lineup can Sony get?
The audience continued to watch Ryogi Ken's performance, and Ryogi Ken started to introduce the PSP's lineup.
The first six games were: < Demon Warrior Chronicles: Tower of Chaos >, < Sparrow Fighting Club >, < Volkswagen Golf >, < Ridge Racer >, < Lumines- Battle of Sound and Light >, < Armored Core Formula Frontline >.
These games were not surprising because the developers of these games were all Sony's core players. They had participated in the PS1's launch and were considered Sony's core players.
These were the first six games to be released for the PSP. But in this world, after defeating Nintendo and plotting against Daqian, Sony received additional support. For example, < Super Mecha Wars >, < Soccer >, etc., games were also released for the PSP. Ryogi Ken announced a total of eight games.
This had already made the media very surprised. They directly said that PSP had a strong starting lineup.
However, after a while, Ryōki Ken smiled and said, "Actually, this is only part of the starting lineup. For the next part of the game, I will invite a good friend of mine to replace me in publishing!"
"What?!" The reporters were stunned by Ryogi Ken's words. How can Ryogi Ken let someone else announce the next games? That person must be someone who is on the same level as Ryogi Ken.
But who is this person?
It can't be Iwata Satoru!
