The game console has a deep memory for the post-80s generation. I believe that every peer has a deep memory of the game years when he was a child. From the earliest black and white handheld game console, he can play snake, Tetris, tank war, motorcycle and other simple games composed of black and white pixels; Later, the rise of the Little Overlord game machine led the trend of a generation. Both the visual effect and the fun were greatly enhanced. The King of Fist, Mindoro, Super Mary, Tank Wars and other games are very popular today. In order to buy a box of cassettes in those days, even snacks were given up!

Later, the large-scale game consoles developed by Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo became popular all over the world. Although the ban was lifted only 14 years ago in China, it could not stop a large number of game lovers from crazy chasing. However, the high price made most student parties flinch. With the continuous progress of science and technology, although computer and mobile games have become more popular and popular, it is still better to play games on a large screen, so this is a great opportunity for domestic manufacturers. Under this condition, domestic manufacturers have recently launched a large number of game console products, Now the author will introduce a new Tidu Mini Station home smart game console jointly launched by Tidu Technology and Tencent!

1、 Brand Story

Tidu Technology is no stranger to external equipment enthusiasts. Founded on November 5, 2014 by the game giant SKY, Tidu Technology is an Internet manufacturing company focusing on user experience and research and development of smart game electronic consumer goods. "Born for e-sports" is the cultural concept of Tidu Technology. After its establishment, Tidu launched e-sports mouse, mechanical keyboard A large number of highly praised game peripheral products, such as the Blackcrystal game console, and the Tidu Mini Station household intelligent game console released in the autumn of 2016, combined with the powerful hardware design and manufacturing of Tidu and Tencent's popular games and platforms, brought us many new surprises.

2、 Unpacking accessories

The titanium mini station home smart game console consists of two independent packages: a game console and a smart game controller. The model of the console is TGB-1000, and the model of the wireless controller is TGC-1000. The appearance design of the two types of packaging boxes is very distinctive, both of them adopt black and red main colors, full of scientific style, and the front is printed with beautiful photos of the host and handle, which is very cool.

The main technical features and detailed product information of the product are printed on the back of the package.

The logo of Tidu Technology is printed on the upper left corner of the packaging box of the two products. The author likes this design style very much, which is grand and mysterious. There is a label next to the machine trial, and I would like to thank the machine trial and titanium technology for this trial opportunity. Thank you very much!

Unpack! Take off the outer package. The pure red inner box of the titanium large screen game console is very delicate, similar to the design of a high-end watch. The middle is sealed with a seal. Do not sign for the damaged label. The seal is very firm, but it is hard to tear it apart~

Open the lid and you can see the black Tidu brand thank you card, which is printed with the official WeChat QR code of Tidu Technology.

The host and all accessories, instructions, power cables and HDMI cables are placed in the accessory box below the host.

The power supply and high-definition output line of the Tidu E-sports host are very good, and the length is enough for most use scenarios. The two sides of the high-definition line head are also carefully protected with plastic covers.

The wireless handle is packaged in a similar way to the game console. The battery, handle cable and handle are embedded in a white plastic box. There is also a simple user guide indicating the main function keys and operation methods.

3、 Appearance details

The appearance design of the Tidu Mini Station household intelligent game console is very excellent, with a sense of science fiction. Especially, it is even more cool after being plugged in. This design won the 2016 German IF Design Award, which is shown in detail below.

The black cube is similar to the energy cube in Transformers. At the same time, it adopts a hollow design, which has the advantage of avoiding the interference of dual WIFI antennas. The hidden cooling holes on the top and bottom can pack the stable operation of the system without destroying the overall aesthetic feeling, and avoid overheating after a long game.

After the power supply is connected, the hollowed out interior effect is more cool. There are four blue light bands like breathing lights flashing from top to bottom, left to right, and the effect is very dreamy. This scene reminds me of the four-dimensional space in interstellar travel, and I have to say that this design is simply fantastic!

The surface of the body of the TiDu large screen game console is made of plastic material with frosting process, and there are TiDu brand logo and Mini Station logo on the left and right sides respectively. At the same time, the product is exquisite, and it can be seen that it is made by heart, but the surface design is easy to be contaminated with dust.

There is a touch button on the top of the host. Long press for three seconds and the system will enter the sleep mode. Short press again to wake the system.

The four corners of the bottom are equipped with anti slip pads. In addition, the host itself is of high quality, which is very stable on the desktop. The middle is printed with product model, input, service phone and other information.

There are four interfaces on the back of the game console, which are network cable interface, HDMI interface, USB3.0 interface and power interface in turn. The hole below the HDMI is the system reset key. However, there are two major shortcomings in the interface. First, there is only one USB interface. After inserting the handle connector, you can no longer connect other USB devices. Second, there is no USB card slot. As a product integrating games, TV and movies, this is a pity.

The handle attached to the game machine is also of solid workmanship. The surface is made of skin friendly material, which feels good. The grip is made of anti-skid treatment, so there is no need to worry about sweating. The handle supports wireless 2.4G transmission and wired transmission, and supports Windows and Android 4.2 or above system versions. It has three modes: Android handle mode, Windows handle mode, and mouse mode, which are highly practical.

In terms of keys, there are left and right rocker, direction key, return key, home key, menu key and ABXY function key on the front, and LT, LB, RT and RB keys on the back, as well as data cable interface. The key feedback, sensitivity and comfort of the handle are quite satisfactory, and the game experience is very good.

The upper end of the bottom is the battery compartment. The handle is powered by two AA batteries. When the power is low, an alarm will be given. At the same time, the handle supports the sleep power saving function.

The wireless receiver is cleverly hidden below the bottom, which is not only convenient to carry, but also can protect the receiver from loss, killing two birds with one stone.

IV Configuring the system

The titanium mini station home intelligent game console is equipped with a quad core main frequency of 1.8GHz, With the ARM Cortex-17 architecture processor, the GPU uses Mali-T764, 2G storage, 16G body storage, and supports H.265 and 4K decoding. The overall configuration is like an enhanced version of the TV box. In terms of performance, most of the games running the Android system are under no pressure, but the 16G rom is a bit stretched for a game console, and it will be full if it can't fit many large games.

The connection of the game console is very simple. Plug in the power and connect the HDMI to the TV. As for the handle, directly plug the signal receiver into the USB socket of the host.

Since the titanium degree large screen game console is not equipped with a remote control, all operations need to be carried out through the mobile phone APP or game handle. Before use, download the dedicated Mini Station APP, and the game console can be managed and operated through the mobile phone. Even though the remote control is also a somatosensory controller, it supports the simultaneous access of up to eight mobile phones.

After installation, select the game console to be connected, enter the password of the game console on the screen, and finally connect to the wireless network. The APP connection is complete!

After connection, the mobile phone directly operates the game console and games as a virtual remote control and handle. There is a return key on the left side of the interface, which is similar to the laptop touchpad during operation. You can slide up, down, left, right, click to open, and there are settings and menu options on the right side. You can select video output parameters, volume, network connection, system management, etc.

The boot screen of the system is very cool. With the powerful music, Tidu Technology LOGO flashes quickly, just like the Iron Man movie is about to start!

The operation interface of the Tidu Mini Station home intelligent game console is simple and easy to operate. It has three layers: upper, middle and lower. After entering the system, the main interface is the installed games and applications. You can select and open them by sliding left and right. The visual effect is very good, so that users can quickly find the games they want to open.

Slide down to have game boutique recommendation and the latest system message reminder.

If you slide up, you will enter the application market of the system, providing a large number of game masterpieces for users to select.

The game market adopts the up and down selection mode. There are eleven categories in total. The top is installed games and downloading games.

In the Tidu game market, there are massive games for users, such as action adventure, flight shooting, sports racing, multiplayer games, casual chess and card games. Players of any age and preference can find their own games. Tidu is suitable for the most popular games on Android platforms, such as King Glory, Swordsman World, National Gun King, Wild Racing 8, Dungeon Hunter, NOVA3, etc. The Tiantian series, National series and other games produced by Tencent as a co producer are almost all inclusive.

In addition to games, Tidu has not yet provided users with video playback, file management, live TV and other audio and video software for QQ music. With them, Tidu Game Machine can also be used to watch movies, live TV, music, etc. Tidu Mini Station is not only a large screen game machine, but also a comprehensive player integrating home audio and video entertainment.

Not only the massive applications in the app store, but also the Tidu game console supports the installation of third-party applications. The downloaded TV software package can be installed through a USB flash drive to comprehensively expand its functions and playability. In order to please the Goddess, the author downloaded the Tencent game that the Goddess likes to play, and also downloaded TV live broadcast software such as TV Cat and HDP live broadcast.

5、 Practical experience

The titanium degree large screen game console supports dual control of mobile phone handles, and diversified interaction modes can greatly improve the actual game experience. It is easy for two people to fight and many people to fight.

The handle of the Tidu game machine has been developed with the participation of professional players and highly adapted to a large number of game masterpieces such as dungeon hunters and national raids, which makes the skills release accurate and the game operation comfortable, avoids the blocking and other situations that are easy to occur during the virtual key operation, and effectively improves the game operation level, so that it is easy to abuse the opponent.

The author downloaded the favorite racing game on the mobile phone, Crazy Racing 8. The software is 31M in size and the data package is 1.4G. However, the download speed is very fast, and the installation is completed soon. The projection screen on the mobile phone can be turned on or off. When it is turned off, the system is called expert blind operation mode.

The Wild Racing 8 has been perfectly adapted to the Tidu game console. Before the game starts, there will be a key prompt for the handle, which is very detailed. Users can quickly start according to the prompt. In actual operation, this large game runs very smoothly, with almost no frame drop and stuck phenomenon, and the operation is also very sensitive.

As a very popular racing game on the Android platform, Rapids has also been perfectly adapted, but the effect of moving the pictures to the big TV is not the same now, and you can't stop playing when you start. And when seeing the games that the Goddess likes to play on the big TV, such as Everyday Cool Run, the controller is firmly occupied, ha ha.

While Street Fighter 97 and other games support multi player operation. Mobile phones and handles can be operated at the same time. Childhood memories are still fresh in my mind. I played several games with my classmates without saying a word. I felt so happy. This game supports online battle and one click release of big moves. However, there is a charge. Pay attention when playing this game.

The HD TV live online also runs smoothly. This is the goddess's favorite.

The author also tested several 1080p and 4K high-definition videos such as the Crazy Animal City, which can be played smoothly. The hard decoding ability of the Tidu game console is very powerful. As the saying goes, there is everything in one console, and the TV box at home with the Tidu game console can be thrown away.

6、 Summary and evaluation

After a period of experience, the performance of the Tidu Mini Station home intelligent game console is remarkable. The breath lamp with a sci-fi appearance is very beautiful and amazing. The workmanship is solid, whether it is the host, the handle or even the accessories. The game experience is very good, A large number of well adapted hot games and humanized control experience can bring good game experience to players.

The perfect support for live TV, music, and high-definition video makes the Tidu game console a home multimedia entertainment terminal. However, there are some problems with the Tidu large screen game console. For example, the 16GB memory space is really small for the game console, while the host does not have a memory card interface, and there is only one USB interface, which will cause some damage to the user experience. However, compared with the price of only 699 yuan, this large screen game console that can make Goddesses love it is a good choice for game lovers.
