Can it run Tetris?

A somewhat more realistic business plan would be to launch a Dendy (NES Clone) retro console. For many millenials in russia and neighbouring countries, this was their first console experience.

It's not cutting edge but having an "10 years old" console would mean having a PS4 equivalent. Not bad for a first try.

I highly doubt the non-cloud console initiative is anywhere close to PS3, let alone PS4. I could be wrong though.

I was pointing to a 10 years gap in technology. I don't know the current level of the Russian CPUs and GPUs.

[–] Alphane_Moon 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

The gap between russian fab capabilities and GPU/CPU design and latest "western" products seems to be way more than 10 years. Perhaps 20 years, if not 30 years. And that's assuming that what they have can scale and isn't mostly a PR move. From my understanding, even some of the Chinese achievements (e.g. 7nm nodes, so about ~5 year behind current tech) are not really viable without government backing.

So you're saying that they're making a tamagochi, more or less ?

We'll see... if this ever exists.
