Source?

A bit is one binary information

On or off

1 or 0

A series of electric on or off signals can be used to represent the color red, or a certain sound.

This how computers work

A crank by definition is revolutionary.

I mean if no other consoles are coming out I guess it is most anticipated by default

Top kek its not even in color

Gen 2 of this thing will be Crank COLOR and immediately make this thing obsolete.

Boy, everyones an idiot but me.

I'm sure the PS5, Switch XL/mini, and even Stadia are more anticipated than this overpriced toy.

But that screen has 2 colours and an off screen (I didn't count it as a colour cause it's just the screen off)? There's black, grey and the background.

no, you just need on or off for each pixel as the bare minimum

Yes, a bit has TWO states (0/1), so it can represent TWO colours (background/foreground).

a bit means that is either 1 or 0, which means the image can be black or white which makes the 1-bit display technically correct.

No, it just has a really well paid marketing team. In reality this will be a novelty toy that'll be forgotten instantly and everyone will go back to playing shitty mobile games.

But a bit turns a pixel either on or off, so it's black or nothing. But there is clearly another state, a grey.

What if the background is just the color of the material the screen is made of?
Or perhaps it's cutting edge cellophane technology. Like in really old arcade cabinets.

Is this like one of those tetris handhelds but with a crank?

those are pixels. they are tiny units that make up the image. when you combine a lot of blacks and whites you make up a grey image.

I agree.

1 bit could turn the screen green and purple

It can make the number 1 and the number 0.
It's actually quite enthralling, have you ever played on and off? if you press the button the light comes on and if you press it again the light goes out. It received mixed reviews but it's really underrated, I mean it is probably one of the only games ever made that have been able to encapsulate the creator's view 100%, some people criticized the gameplay itself for being over simplistic but for what it set out to accomplish I believe that it did perfectly not failing in any way. There's no fluff that they wasted time on, 100% of development went into perfecting the main mechanic, no forced multiplayer or on disc dlc for them to split their efforts with, all efforts went into making On and Off the best it could be.

"bits" in a console never refered to graphics, they refered first and foremost to the data bus width of the CPU. Your modern computer is 64 bits and your screen is 32 bits.

I'm more angry that people who play video games as a hobby don't know shit about computers. How have we phased out knowledge of the byte?

Well big news, no.

Actually allow me to correct, it's 24 bits only, 8 bits per color, the extra 8 bits are used for transparency, but you don't actually see that, the entire colorspace of your modern 2019 display fits in 24 bits.

Which is why it never refered to graphics.

This is a jewish scheme to sell tiny cranks for $100.

I didn't realized that 1-bit also change the brightness of the screen

Don't you feel like a fool?

What other colour is it meant to piss?

look up on wikipedia how a tv works.

How about my nokia monochrome phone?

Good one

How dumb are you. You don't need computation for off. 0 sets the default color, what ever you want, then 1 lets you change that color. 1 bit is like saying you can do one color change. Off is just off and doesn't need to be computed.

Is this the Juicero of video games?

Why not just make it white light and black light?

Because he's talking out of his ass. Ignore him

Inputs are handled completely differently. A signal is sent and queued up, then a program goes through all of them. Button pressed and button released are different signals that are sent. And if you want to check if a button is currently pressed it's either 1 or 0. Maybe for TAS speedruns where inputs are pre-programmed, whether A is pressed is stored in each frame.

Meanwhile an image is a file with data. You can't represent an image with a background without identifying which pixels are one color and which pixels are the background color. This is a 2-color image and thus can be represented with a 1-bit palette.

No
In more pressing matters my company has been trying to get data on this machine since it was announced and those fags haven't even responded yet.
Don't they want the money?
If they don't respond soon then we will never work with them. I don't even think they have a finished product yet right now.

That's not how modern LCD controllers work, they address all dots on the display no matter what, there's no "no computation" state, they all get their value set at every single frame. Otherwise it leads to a well-known problem of black pixels progressively getting lighter the more black pixels are present.

???

Bits became a marketing gimmick, because no one knew it wasn't a powerlevel metric. What those consoles did was add all the processors (usually 2) to get that number. The SNES indeed used a 8-bit processor, and the 68000 (used in the Genesis) indeed was 32-bit, although the external bus was limited to 16-bit.

I think it was the Atari Jaguar that added two 32-bit processors and said it was 64-bit.

Not quite, data bus is 32 bits, but arithmetic unit is 16. It's more commonly used as a 16 bit CPU because of this, and I'm quite certain the Genesis was used in 16 bits mode exclusively except for DMA instructions, which are limited.

You don't need a university degree to know that a byte is 8-bits and can represent 2^8 values as a result. Just some curiosity on what the fuck these "bytes" are that your computer and manufacturers seem to think are a relevant number to display.

CS is one of the most open fields in academia. You literally can find all the information you want online. Sure a degree is a good way to go if you want intricate knowledge and credentials (and even then some "CS" courses don't even go into low level programming so you're going to need to supplement with learning on your own) but learning bits and pieces here and there just requires some curiosity and wikipedia as a jumping off point.

>I claimed you needed an university degree to understand how a computer works
jesus christ. no, you don't. the only people who understand how modern computers fully function are in the industry working at intel and such, not doing theoretical stuff at university. and those people don't even understand literally everything. They might understand the whole cpu, maybe, but definitely not the whole CPU and how an operating system works from the ground up.

if you want to learn how a simpler computer works, you can literally learn programming, find the manuals for old CPUs online (like the intel 8080), and write an emulator. You can do this in high school all from your computer.

Also if you build your own computer, understanding why some components are better than others (and why these components are necessary in the first place) is just being an informed consumer. Why do computer components even put technical stats on the product page on Amazon or newegg if you need a university degree to understand any of them in the first place?

Those things were fucking kino

That's where the nougat comes out user.

They use really cheap screens, the ones with built in RGB and that are solderless are a bit expensive though($65-100).
Its way cheaper to either buy an already modded GBC or get one where you have to solder.

awesome stuff even your mom could figure out

indians know how to copy and paste that is all they do. programing good games takes a certain level of innovation and problem solving. of course they are used by big studios to copy and paste 10 million lines of code to place quest-locations in boring ass open world maps.

You should have studied Computer Engineering instead. CPUs have optimized subsystems for certain operations; a common one is usually the arthimetic logic unit or ALU. The circuits in an ALC instead of being general purpose, are optimized for the basic math operations, add one register to another, multiply one register by another, and some modern ones even have things like division as its own operation, instead of iterative substraction. He's saying that the ALU in the Motorola 68000 only took in 16bit inputs, so even if the main CPU could handle 32 bit operations, its math operations needed to be 16 bit, so rather than work around this with complex coding, most people just stuck to limiting themselves to 16 bit operations.

"8-bit" doesn't refer to the display.

depends on if you are referring to the graphics or the processor bus width.

What the fuck, why do people need to pretend it's revolutionary? I personally like the idea of making a small physical thing that comes with a bunch of weird experimental games specifically made for its hardware, and might buy it out of curiosity. Hell, if they open it up I might even make a simple game for it.
It won't ever be a mainstream, serious product though. Why the fuck does it need to be? Nothing is going to be shaken by this fucking thing.

I didn't want to study that shit either, I don't care about this shit and I haven't worked a single day in the field.

so the color encoder? doesn't change anything though, it's a handheld with a single screen.

There are other ways to market something than just proclaiming it's the best thing ever. You could, for example, market it as a fun gimmick device for enthusiasts. It would sell to those. There is no point in comparing it to the mainstream industry.

They don't really need it. Maybe for marketing. All the crank allows for on a device is fractional values. Like 0.1. A button gives 2 values. 0 or 1, press or no press. (Or 0.5 press if you're a speedrunning faggot) An analog stick ona a console and more recently the triggers have analog values so they can be used. If a game needs a input for analog, devs or sony or microsoft or whoever might just use that instead.

this is just the language of "innovation", user. you know, the best part of capitalism. if a new product doesn't offer something new (experience/feature) it's difficult to sell/justify. Communists do not have a monopoly on revolutions, remember the revolutionary war of american history? why do you need to politicize this? have some introspection

why is that?

i mean you dont have to watch it all user...

Emulator when?

It's not though, the NHS has deep roots in traditional British liberalism and Civics.

Looks neat.

you can't emulate a crank

Do you really think Disgaea would sell better if it was marketed as a direct competitor to Call of Duty? Not every audience is the same.

I think it might not be terrible, but it will certainly bomb. there's no justifying that price for a niche product with so few game. it's basically more of a conversation piece.

Mouse control? Joypad? You would probably have to adjust for whatever resistance the crank has but its doable.

I'm left handed so I dont even know where to begin on how uncomfortable this thing looks. I imagine its comparable to playing Kid Icarus Uprising without the benefit of having fun.

The GBA and the GBA SP launched at $99.99. It had hundreds of games, including many with fun gimmick shit like Boktai or Wario Ware Twisted. This thing is $150 and has a total of 12 or 15 games and a dumb useless gimmick not being taken advantage of as none of the games are fishing.
You can have actual fun with emulation.

You mean a group heavily infested with young idealistic left wing socialists?
What the unknowlegable fail to understand is that Marx predicted that capitalism succeeds to the point in which it wil give way to socialism in which will eventually give way to communism.

The smarter socialists realise for socialism to ever stand a chance, capitalism must succeed and run it's theoretical "full course". Thus you have the seemingly hypocritical hypercapitalists holding left wing values, that is common in California.

The problem is these people don't seem to consider that Marx could have been wrong.

He most certainly did. It helps if you even have a basic understanding of economics. His prediction summed up in a very basic sense

>"Lower stage" communism (Commonly referred to as socialism today) is born from this. In which products are created as per use-value, enforced by public ownership or worker co-ops.
>This eventually transfers into higher-stage (true communism) when there becomes a super-abundance/post scarcity and there is no longer a need for a state.

There's a reason why these left wing people are constaly called progressives and why a lot of left wing people seem to celebrate and highlight "late-stage"capitalism.

Molyneux started the studio 22Cans, which had the states purpose of developing exactly 22 games
The first was Curiosity -- What's Inside the Cube?, a global co-op game where all players chip away at the same cube.
At the very center was a special secret prize that only the player who first uncovers it would receive. Molyneux described the prize was "life-changingly amazing by any definition."

After about 8 months, Bryan Henderson opened the cube. His prize? He got to be the "god" in 22Cans next game, Godus, which entitled him to a small percentage of the game's revenue.
Godus, a god game following in the footsteps of Populous, released in early access later that year in September 2013. As of 2015, Henderson had still received no contact from 22Cans and had received no revenue. Molyneux in his infinite wisdom claims there was a single man who was assigned to contact Henderson, who had left the company, and somehow nobody else had been assigned the task.
Godus continues to be updated on iOS and Android, however the PC release has not been worked on since 2014.

In 2016, 22Cans released Godus Wars and The Trail: Frontier Challenge.
They are currently working on Legacy.
