If any of you guys remember a month back in my first tread I posted this https://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=350930
I asked what sort of steps NEC and Hudson Soft could make to successfully enter the video game market. Originally I proposed the idea for the ARM2 chip to be used on NEC console as well as a cd drive as standard!
However just recently I found out about this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMS34010 and more importantly this http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/vivid24!
This is crazy and apparently they even offered Sega and Nintendo to uses these chips for use on their consoles! Even crazier is the TMS 34082 microprocessor yes microprocessor was capable of 40 MFLOPS each and it could be stack by 4x. That's a ps1 right there in 1989 to boot!
I'm just think of all of the what if this causes, say for example were to follow my original arcade first then later console root while teaming up with say Capcom, Midway, and Namco. Namco would love it for its 3d capabilities and definitely show it off while Capcome and Midway just have to be themselves to be awesome!
