In this week's Gaming Fun Fact, we discuss the history of gaming handhelds. Many people think that the original Game Boy kicked off the handheld gaming scene, but it started much earlier back with the Microvision in 1979. Sporting a 16 x 16 pixel screen and cartridge-based games, the Microvision pre-dated the Game Boy by ~11 years. Hot off the presses, Geoff Keighley and his team delivered the Summer Game Fest 2024 presentation filled to the brim with game reveals, trailers, and more for the entire 2 hour presentation. Some of the games shown off included: Alan Wake II DLC, Lego Horizon Adventures, Quidditch Champions, and more!
TCW Podcast Episode 199 - The History of Handheld Games Part 2 Continuing in front of a live streaming audience, part two of our exploration into the history of handheld games delves into the pivotal role of LCDs. We kick off with the Microvision and trace the progression through the iconic Game & Watch, credited with saving Nintendo during challenging times and inspiring emulation by companies like Tiger Electronics. Citing the advancements in LCD technology, we culminate with a detailed examination of the enigmatic origins of the Game Boy, dispelling common misconceptions and unraveling a more intricate narrative. The episode concludes just before the release of the Game Boy, leaving listeners on the edge of their seats with a journey through the previously opaque yet fascinating world of handheld gaming history.

Sergio Ávila, analista de IG España, asegura que se está produciendo cierta rotación sectorial en las Bolsas que está beneficiando al Ibex 35". "Compañías energéticas, materiales básicos, industriales y financieras se están viendo beneficiadas en la última semana en detrimento de la tecnología, el consumo defensivo, la salud y sector de las telecomunicaciones, y eso beneficia al Ibex", ha explicado Ávila durante el consultorio de Bolsa de Capital Intereconomía. En cuanto a sectores señala que la caída de algunos valores tecnológicos como Amazon "no es proecupante, y en España destaca el buen comportamiento del metalúrgico y el textil con Inditex a la cabeza. En cuanto a valores que están fuertes ahora mismo destaca a ACS, Amadeus, Ferrovial, Endesa e Iberdrola dentro de la Bolsa española. Además ha analizado el aspecto técnico de otras compañías como Línea Directa, Grifols, IAG, Repsol, Merlin Properties, Tesla, Alibaba, Lufthansa, Hermes, Alphabet, Microsoft, Fuelcel, GameStop, TUI, Sacyr y Microvision.

Ez volt az a felvétel, ahol nem kellett kínkeserveren összekaparnunk a témákat, hiszen az élet - vagyis inkább a Microsoft - biztosított jó alapanyagot.

La questione riguarda il contratto di cloud computing JEDI da 10 miliardi di dollari con il Dipartimento della Difesa ottenuto da Microsoft.

Today I speak about Microvision stock and the fact that it went up 166% in just one week. I added Microvision to my portfolio many months ago and it's turned into a wonderful investment.

Tech is everywhere! But in the 80’s we looked at it with a little wonder, a little excitement, and a lot of neon. We look at the technology our heroes used to save the day and the toys that helped us grow. Technology in our favorite TV shows and the tech toys that kept us entertained and edumacated. In the NEWS The Princess Bride is coming to a board game near you A Knight Rider movie is in the works! TRON 3 gets a new director The last Blockbuster Video is available for a sleepover! Pack those PJs Space Camp may just be around for a bit longer! TechnoRetro Cereal - Junior Spoonster Jay brings us news of a new type of breakfast; Mac and Cheese...wait, that can’t be right. Mac and Cheese?!?!?! Would you indulge in this traditional kiddie meal as a morning feast? Let us know. And you’ve gotta check out the Teachable Machine Lucky Charms Marshmallow extractor. It’s sure to change your late night snacking habits. Saturday Mornings - Retro TV with Tech-Centered Stories We loved our TV heroes! In the 80’s those heroes often got to use cool new tech to save the day. Automan was a hero straight out of TRON. He is a complex computer construct that partners up with a police computer expert. And he’s got a sweet glowy car! Max Headroom was a one of a kind piece of technology that helped shape the 80’s without ever leaving a TV screen (or having a body). The Street Hawk was a super fast, super cool motorcycle. And Airwolf saved the day from the sky while Stringfellow Hawke piloted the powerful helicopter. Finally, Michael Knight was a faithful partner to KITT, the computer powered super car whose legacy lives on to this day. How cool were they? And how much did they influence the future? Toys in the Attic - Tech Toys Was there anything more exciting for a kid to get a toy that needed batteries? Electronic toys became more accessible to kids in the 80’s. They kept us entertained and helped us learn. The Little Professor calculator was where Shua learned his numbers and the Speak and Spell built his words. Most kids enjoyed their Mattel Electronic sports games, even though it was really just a few little red LED lights. But blinking lights could be fun, and be the basis of games like Merlin and Simon. The Microvision was the granddaddy of the handheld games we love today. And if you like games of fantasy, Dark Tower and Dungeons & Dragons Computer Labyrinth Game sparked our imagination.
From the earliest days of hand held electronic games, and arcade hits like Sinistar, through the golden era of Lucasarts adventures to the cutting edge tech of games as therapeutic tools, Noah Falstein was there, pushing boundries and showing the world what gaming really could do.

Over the past few years, the cost of projection technology has come down significantly. That has been paired with the size of the technology getting smaller. On Black Friday 2019, we saw pico projectors being offered for less than $100. However, these devices don't provide a lot of value for most consumers. That's because the way we interact with our computing technology has changed, as well.Most people expect the screens in their life to be touch. Nearly all laptops, definitely all phones and tablets, and even a lot of desktop (all-in-one) computers offer touch input. Projection screens, however, still require external input - that is until now. MicroVision has developed the Interactive Projection Engine - a very small hardware array that allows developers to produce devices with touch-enabled projection.The demo device we got to see allowed for nearly any standard video input and computing output to connect to a device. We saw the projector connected to a phone with impressive touch recognition capabilities. But, the possibilities are endless, especially when connected to a computer. Even in our portable broadcast studio, this projector would make traveling easier, because it would eliminate the need for monitors.Imagine being a business traveler, maybe you're a salesperson. You don't know what your client might have in a conference room. You don't want to pack a full projector, but the pico projectors tend to be too dim. This technology, however, is laser-powered, making it possible to use it in standard lighting. We even saw it on our wall in the studio with our lighting and the light of the convention center.The demo device is available for developers through an application. The company is working with manufacturers to produce commercial products based on the technology.
