SEGA revives the war of consoles with a remake of what they do and Nintendon’t

by

The console war ended. We are in an increasingly global segment with PlayStation publishing in Xbox, Xbox being one of the great Publisher of PlayStation and Sega publishing games in Nintendo for decades. Currently, who continues with that war is The Japanese soldier who continued fighting in World War II Untilly enter the Cold warbut Sega wanted to pull nostalgia to embrace his past more thug. Watch this video: This is the launch trailer for ‘Sonic Racing: Crossworlds‘A game of karts in the pure style of’ Mario Kart ‘, but with characters from the’ Sonic ‘saga and the Sega universe. It is not necessary to pay too much attention to realize that the game that appears on a flat TV (but with a few years behind it) is’Mario Kart World‘, the title of Nintendo Switch 2. Sega, just in case, it makes it clear by making allusions at the speed at which the races go in the Nintendo game, the open world or La Vaca, protagonist of one of the most iconic circuits of ‘Mario Kart’. It is a thug trailer that ends with a Fulano, squeaking something that may not understand the first, but that cry is the SEGA WAR GRITO IN THE ADVERTISING OF THE 90. And, therefore, this trailer is a genius. Sega is that Japanese soldier who continued fighting Currently, as I said, the ‘console war’ of a school patio is somewhat surpassed by the companies themselves. ‘Gears of War‘is the icon, next to’Halo‘, from Xbox, and just arrived at PlayStation 5. ‘2‘It is one of the Sony games that has best worked for them in recent years and also It has just landed in Xbox. The two companies have published on PC for years and paints that this collaboration will go from here on. Sega is one Publisher multiplatform from the disaster of Dreamcast and His relationship with Nintendo has been good all these years. But, for his new ‘Sonic Racing’, and in the middle of remakes and sell nostalgia (Nintendo with that Virtual Boy Replica freshly announced), The Japanese company has made a remake of one of its most iconic videos. Take an eye on this video: Exact: that of ‘Sonic Racing: Crossworlds’ is a remake almost 1: 1 of the SEGA video of the 90s to make fun that the Super Nintendo did not have the ‘blast processing’ and, therefore, could not show graphics as fast as the mega drive (or Sega Genesis in other markets). What was the ‘Blast Processing’? Marketing, pure and hard. It was not a chip or anything like that and was part of that all “Genesis Does What Nintendon ‘” campaign, a great word game that comes to say that the Genesis/Mega Drive does what Nintendo can’t. Advertising throughout this arch It was very aggressive Among the companies, but Sega took the palm with mythical campaigns such as the ‘Nintendon’t’, the ‘Blast Processing’, the announcement of the price of mega drive 50 dollars cheaper than the Super Nintendo or this mythical of the Game Gear against the game boy that still seems tremendously beast: The history of advertising among these companies is so mythical that it has inspired stories of all kinds, a great book called ‘Console Wars‘And pieces that will remain for memory thanks to both games and the ads themselves. It was the most splendid era in commercial creativity And a competition between companies that disappeared When the first playstation arrived. This hooligan communication has been seen since then (such as Sony mocking how to give games in Xbox A few E3 has already), but this new ad of Sega is nice, it is effective and a missile to nostalgia.

Who will manufacture the consoles now

by

Do you remember those non-tan-lejanos times in which the video game scene was a real field planted with pots, each with its characteristics, its catalogs and its peculiarities? Only in the 1990s there were 32 different consoles in the market… And that without counting the laptops! But the times have changed, and that park diminishes dangerously to approach a point where we possibly only have a console with our own hardware before us. To content. The news that has made the most veteran fans to get the beards have come directly from Sony’s senior vice president: Sadahiko Hayakawa states that are gradually changing their video game business of a hardware -centered model “to a model that expands the community and increases interaction.” Hayawaka says that all Sony is reorienting “creation” rather than the device factory, since games, music and cinema have ended up adding 60% of the company’s total benefits. The manager has mentioned the recent purchase from Bandai Namco As an example of this reorientation in the search, for example, of profitable IPS. It has been seeing. Sony has been launching signs that point by steps in this direction for a while. The clearest, the launch of ‘2’ Helldivers in Xbox Series X and S A year after his arrival exclusively to PS5 and that of ‘Lego Horizon Adventures’ on Switch. The purchase of Bandai Namco also points in that direction: franchises such as ‘Dragon Ball’ are too juicy (and universal) and to limit the potential millionaire bemnefits with an exclusivity. It is sought. Another sign of this change is the Rumors linked to a work offer in PlayStation About the games will be carried at PC in just six months after their departure in PlayStation. If so, titles such as ‘Death Stranding 2’ would be in PlayStation before the end of the year. Finally, there has been job offers In search of multiplatform development directors and accounts management in which, literally, “design and execute a global commercial roadmap that expands the PlayStation Studios titles beyond the limits of the hardware of the company itself.” Xbox was first. Sony and Microsoft are going to par, and Microsoft has taken much more determined steps in that direction: Xbox emblematic games such as’ Gears of War ‘,’ Forza Horizon 5 ‘E’ Indian With excellent sales results (Seven of the twenty best -selling games in PlayStation They are Xbox properties). Have expressly spoken of give up permanent exclusivities. And his slogan “Play wherever you want “ It could not be clearer: Xbox’s future intention is to sell a platform, not a machine. Nintendo to yours. The only one that remains unperturbed to events is Nintendo, and has achieved it with a strategy that they explain GREATED OUR COMPANIONS OF LIFEXTRA: Game prices do not change. It doesn’t matter if you buy the new ‘Mario Kart’ the departure day or a year later, they will cost the same. Punishment for late? It may be, but above all, a prize for those who arrive first, who are going to play longer for the same price. And so, the sales of the games from day one have multiplied, which has strengthened the company’s bases and has strengthened it in the economic. Nintendo can allow you to be the only one in the patio, you do not need to beg for other systems. The million dollar question. Obviously it is … Who will manufacture the consoles now? And the answer is evident: nobody. The future is from the cloudand in that sense Xbox is betting all its chips. As they claim, Game Pass is leaving profitablerather than selling games in boxes, and one of the most powerful aspects of the subscription is to be able to run its titles on any screen. If PlayStation also launches something like that (not necessarily with its own platform, but generating material for others), we can be before the death sentence not only of the physical format, but directly from traditional consoles. A confusing future. Nothing screams more “transition stage” than this was that we have had to live. From Microsoft literally disintegrating all the possibilities that we see a new box called “Xbox” to Nintendo remaining faithful to its screens, its franchises and its prices, through a Sony that enters a phase of change confessed, it is difficult to predict what the future will bring us. It is clear that there will be more screens than ever. What is not clear is what they will be plugged in. In Xataka | PlayStation 6: All the information we know (or we think) so far

He installed Windows 95 in a PS2 and confirmed why it is one of Sony’s most indomitable consoles

by

Someone set out to take a PS2 to the limit: to operate a desk operating system In the legendary Sony console. He got it, although not precisely in the way many could imagine. And he didn’t stop there. He also tried to operate a game as mythical as ‘Doom’. The idea sounds simple: take an ancient operating system and make it work on a console two decades ago. However, chow our 3D games colleagues collectjust look a little more closely to understand why that combination, in reality, is almost impossible. The experiment that led an operating system to a console limit The PlayStation 2 was market in 2000 with a custom -designed architecture for video games. Its processor, the Emotion Engineruns about 300 MHz and works with a set of instructions different from that used by the personal computers of the time. Next to him, Windows 95 —Caszado in 1995 – was created to function in X86 processorsas the Intel 386 or 486 classics. Since the PlayStation 2 could not directly execute Windows 95, a good idea was to simulate a compatible computer within the console itself. And that is exactly what he did The YouTube channel Metrabyte. Did not turn to a native installer – because it does not exist – but to the standard installation of Windows 95 within Bochsan X86 architecture emulator. To put it, the youtuber loaded a version of Bochs adapted for the console, connected a USB keyboardand started the process. At first he used a USB memory to advance with the installation of Windows 95. But he soon found an obvious bottleneck: the USB port of the PS2 barely reaches 1.5 MB/s. To avoid this, he ended up choosing a more handmade solution: moving the files to an old IDE hard drive – rescued from an IMAC and mounted on an external housing – that connected to the console. Windows 95 was not designed to execute from an environment emulated on a console, much less from such limited storage units. Each step required a lot of time. The process lasted a good part of the night. The author himself calculates that around 10 amalthough he admits not knowing exactly how long it took. But the system finally started. Windows 95 was on the screen. With your colors, your desk, your starting bar. He even managed to open Paint. The keyboard worked, although USB mouse was not recognized. The fluidity was minimal. And when he tried to execute ‘Doom’, one of his original ideas, the system simply could not with him.

I have already tried the ‘mouse’ mode of Nintendo Switch 2. Open a door so far closed on consoles

by

In 2017, the First Nintendo Switch He arrived to revolutionize the way of playing. He did it with his concept of hybrid console, but also thanks to some controls that have established themselves as more versatile controls. It was something they had to maintain with Nintendo Switch 2and with the first trailer of the console, we saw that they could have given a twist to the controls. As? Turning the joy-with a mouse. Like those of a lifelong computer. This is not a tremendously new. In fact, Lenovo Legion Goa Consolidated PC That he drinks a lot of Nintendo Switch, he already had a way to turn his right command into a mouse thanks to an optical sensor. With Windows as an operating system, compatibility was total, but the doubt was to what extent the Nintendo Switch 2 mouse mode would be useful. After playing a few hours with the joy-with mouse, I have to tell you that they work really well and makes sense for certain gamesbut for Shooters, which are perhaps ideals for a mouse, it doesn’t convince me so much. And it will also depend a lot on the endurance of your hands. Turning the Joy-Con Nintendo Switch 2 is not a machine to do experiments. The 152 million switch soldand going up, they are a reflection that the company has achieved a product that people liked. They don’t need something groundbreaking As switch or Wii in your day, but a continuous console. But within that line, it is interesting to see that they have tried to take a step further apart from with power improvement. In the First Nintendo Switch 2 impressions After a day trying it I have already told that I like that the joy-with are larger, because it is easier to control games like ‘Doom‘ either ‘Wolfenstein‘With the sticks and fit better in the palm of the hand. And apart from size, a change comes with optical technology. In the area that joins the Joy-Con with the console, Nintendo has added an optical sensor that basically converts each command into a mouse. There are games that will be controlled with the two Joy-Con in this way, but I think the best uses will be those that convert Switch 2 into a kind of desktop PC. Image | Xataka And you don’t have to make strange configurations or anything to go from the wireless joy-with the joy-with mouse: the screen decouplas, you put it in a “vertical” position, supporting that sensor on a surface, and if you have previously configured it when configuring the console, a pointer appears automatically on the screen. Image | Xataka And ready, it’s like a mouse, with triggers serving as choice buttons. In the console box comes an addition that is an coupling for that area. The joy-with works as a mouse without it, but in this way you have a somewhat more slippery base, you protect the song of the joy-with of any element that is on the table and it may be suggestion, but I think it slides better. Good Gimmick technological or something useful? Let’s see it And the sensations playing with the Switch 2 mouse Launching, there are several games who take advantage of this mouse function. One is ‘Welcomo Tour’ that “minigame” (of 10 euros) that serves to know the entrails and characteristics of the console. There are some mini -games that allow us to explore that control mode and it is curious, but it does not happen. ‘Civilization VII‘It is also compatible With this way, but I could not try it. The one I have played (in any of its modes) is’Cyberpunk 2077‘. When we first executed it, the game tells us that it allows us to play in several ways. It is one of the most generous in this regard because it takes advantage of the accelerometer of the Joy-Con, in the mouse mode and the touch screen (well by CD Projakt there), and it really is the one that allows me to imagine what it will be like to play ‘Metroid Prime 4‘In this way. By default, the game control is through the ‘normal’ command, but in the configuration section, we can select that mouse mode. There are several configurations that we can do to play more comfortable in this regard and I have to say one thing: the sensor that Nintendo has placed in the Joy-with seems very good to me. Image | Xataka On a completely, flat surface, the answer is great, but on the couch, it works very well when sliding on the furniture fabric. With fine cloth shorts it is not going so well because the fabric wrinkles, but in jeans they are also quite precise. That is, if you play in the living room, you don’t have to look for a table or a flat surface: the control is necessary in another type of surface. The left joy-with (because I am right-handed, but having a sensor in both, left-handed ones can also play perfectly) serves to move the character and point, while the right controls the trigger of the weapon, ABXY buttons still have their predetermined actions And the right stick is a scroll bar. And, as I say, you play well: something straight at the beginning because the triggers are very sensitive and you can throw a grenade easily, it happened to me, but you get used to easy. Now, there is an ergonomics problem. In a conventional mouse (in a good one), the manufacturer has bothered to study anatomy to launch a device that can adapt to many arches differently. My partner John Tones already commented After trying switch a few weeks ago. Image | Xataka That does not happen in this case and the 20 minutes was already fatigued. In addition, as they continue to ask you to press buttons of that command for actions such as jumping, selecting or speaking, You always have the arched thumb of moreforcing a position that, … Read more

He is sending thousands of consoles from Vietnam to the US, according to Bloomberg

by

The temporal truce in reciprocal tariffs, announced a few days ago by Donald Trumphas unleashed a counterreloj career among great technological to adjust their movements. Among them, Nintendo. The Japanese company decided to postpone the reservations of its expected Nintendo Switch 2 in the United States and did not hesitate to publicly attribute it to the context of commercial war. From China to Vietnam: the movement that Nintendo had already foreseen. Although much of its production was focused on China, Nintendo began in 2019 to move part of its manufacture to Vietnam. At that time, they assured that it was not a maneuver for tariff reasons, but a strategy to diversify its supply chain. Over time, the decision has made even more sense. Today, one third of the new units Nintendo Switch 2 They will leave factories in Vietnam. The manufacturer in charge, hosiden – the equivalent to Foxconn, who works with Apple, in the Nintendo ecosystem – is now under pressure to accelerate the production rate and make the most of the current tariff window. The weight of tariffs: 145%, 46% or 10%. If all production followed in China, shipments to the United States would be subjected to a 145%tariff, a devastating blow for the company. Vietnam, on the other hand, faced a 46% taxwhich has been temporarily reduced to 10% due to the temporary suspension announced by Washington. According to BloombergNintendo is rushing to introduce as many consoles as possible in US territory while this reduced tariff is in force. In February alone, Hosiden sent more units from Vietnam than in the previous six months. The logic is simple: filling the stores now costs much less than paying higher rates. A clock run and many pending negotiations. The suspension of the tariffs was established in 90 days. It is the margin that the United States and Vietnam have to negotiate, although Washington is also in conversations with many other countries. In parallel, Vietnam and the United States They have already opened a channel to explore a “reciprocal” commercial agreement. Meanwhile, 10% remains in force. And if there are no advances, the risk of returning to 46% is on the table.
