In a recent interview, a-e Interactive recently spoke to Jen-Hsun Huang, CEO of Nvidia, a leading developer of graphics chips. Although the Wii’s graphical hardware is being provided by rival company ATI Technologies, there have been some interesting comments made on the upcoming generation of video gaming along with positive press for Nintendo’s Wii.
When it came down to whether Nvidia chose the right console to support in the upcoming battle, Huang noted “You can't build chips for all the game consoles. That's not possible. They would all like a slightly different style from the others. Difference is important. The same chip company would have difficulty designing chips for the different styles. It's also so high stakes that you need to focus. No one has enough extraneous resources around to build chips for all the game consoles.”
Previously Nvidia worked with Microsoft, providing the GPU for their first generation machine, Xbox. With the company’s second effort, Xbox360, Nvidia “could not afford to build the graphics for the 360. I know I couldn't afford it. I would love to build it. I just can't afford it." Nvidia are now set to provide graphics resources for Sony’s third home console, and when questioned on the use of Blu-Ray for the company’s optical storage, there was “no sense for the PlayStation 3 to use DVDs. To postpone it by a few months so they could include Blu-Ray was a master stroke. When that comes out, it's going to look so much more advanced than last-generation game consoles. I think that was a wonderful call on their part... If I'm going to buy a next-generation game console, I'm going to buy a console with next-generation media. It's going to last 10 years.”
When leaving the Xbox and PS3 discussion, Huang talked about his views on Nintendo’s approach – leaving the traditional leap into the latest graphical technology.
“Nintendo's perspective has always been different. The platforms that are being built now are not just game consoles. You use it for all kinds of other kinds of applications. In the case of Nintendo, they wanted to build a game console. They built a wonderful game device. Their focus is games and enjoyment. They will be myopically focused on that. I think that is terrific. Their perspective is different from the other two.”
Stay tuned for future updates on the impending console battle.
