As we told you yesterday, the legendary Game Designer Yu Suzuki responded last March to an interview made for the book sega hard historia, a book devoted to the history of the machines of Sonic's house. At the very end of the interview, when asked if he has a message for Sega fans, the designer of titles like Outrun, Virtua Fighter or Space Harrier benefits to launching them ( Translated and relayed by the Phantomriverstone website):
Let's all hear our voices in Sega to create hardware again.
Virtua Sega
In parallel with this comment, the director evokes in the bonus part of the interview the domains via which Sega could return to the hardware if he wished. Obviously, Yu Suzuki does not think of consoles in the traditional sense of the term:
Nowadays, we have bluetooth wireless headphones. We are now in an era in which they can be produced easily and we will soon see things like augmented reality glasses. Virtual reality helmets will also become lighter as technology behind batteries has grown greatly. From there, the important thing for players will no longer really be powerful configurations but devices used for inputs and outputs like increases in reality. This is where we will see most changes. By wearing glasses, you can feel things and see using augmented reality. Changes to things like appliances for inputs and sensors will change the experience experienced by the player. Rather than talking about a multiplication by 5 of the calculation speed, these are the inputs and outputs that will become more important. The (game) experience will change drastically to focus on the focus On what happens before your eyes. If they borrowed the path of such ideas, I'm sure SEGA would be able to do a lot of interesting things in the future.
The return to Sega Hardware is currently only a sweet dream. Come in a busy area by giants like Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft, moreover at a time when consumption habits and business models change radically, would be a huge challenge for the current Haruki Satomi firm.
And if new Sega machine there was, it is not guaranteed that the Japanese group would choose to follow the advice of its famous collaborator. As a reminder, Yu Suzuki no longer works for Sega. He is now boss of his own studio, YS Net, and continues to collaborate with Sega as a consultant.
What do you think of these statements by Yu Suzuki? Do you believe there is a chance that Sega proposes a new machine one day? If so, what would you like it to offer? Do you think the slopes evoked by Yu Suzuki are the right? Tell us everything in the comments below.
