324 GBA Game

In the KiShin Research building, Shin was in the office of the Director of Research.

The Director of Research was a chubby man with a mustache, and Shin is providing the explanation for the electronic product or iPod in his mind to the man.

Shin also put down the design of the iPod in front of the director, although the design didn't really include the board layout and board design, but the outward design, such as buttons and the screen, and the size of the device and the hardware design, such as the headphone jack and other ports. Although there's not yet a board layout and board design, Shin wrote the electrical components required for the device to fully function...

The chubby director seriously listened to his young boss and also took a look at the design of the iPod.

The director was gradually fascinated as he heard the explanation from the young boss, and at the same time, he heard from his young boss that he wanted the research to fully explore it and produce a prototype of it.

As for the funds? The director knew that the budget was never a problem for his boss or his company, KiShin...

"This is gonna revolutionize the technology of the media player!" The director, Morishita Isamu, exclaimed. Although he usually flattered the young boss, Shinro Suzuki, most of the time when the young boss is in the KiShin Research building, this time, he was really genuinely impressed by such an electronic product...

Shin nodded and said, "The Gameboy Advance is already finished, and after its testing, it may already be ready for mass production, so the researchers will have more time now to research on this media player device..."

Morishita Isamu nodded and said with a flattering smile, "Researching such a device requires effort and time, but with the design and required electronic components provided by the boss, we'll be able to research the device more conveniently."

Shin didn't really care about the flattery of the director and just nodded, then said, "Then do your best in researching this product. If we can finish researching it in a year or so, then we'll end the domination of other companies in media player technologies."

Morishita Isamu just nodded flatteringly. If KiShin could indeed produce a media player device with the design the young boss had presented, then there's no doubt that KiShin would truly dominate the media player products of other electronics companies.

Several Japanese electronic companies were actually profiting from the media player device or music player, and that's a CD music player, such as the DiskMan of Suzuki, Marathon of Tora (Marathon was the name of Tora CD player), and a few others...

After Shin finished arranging for the research of the iPod at KiShin Research, he went to the KiShin Rules Headquarters and entered his office. There, Shin did what he usually does as the Chairman of a multi-billion-dollar company—monitoring performance and risk. This involves overseeing the financial performance of the company and its subsidiaries, identifying and mitigating potential risks...

And also ensuring ethical conduct, such as upholding the company's ethical standards and corporate social responsibility policies, advocating for the company's interests, and more.

After that, Shin took a break and retrieved the Gameboy Advance from his pocket.

His Gameboy Advance was custom-designed, with the famous KiShin IPs from video games or animes painted on both the bottom and top shells.

Then, he inserted a game cartridge without the designed cover.

Shin turned on the Gameboy Advance, and the screen lit up with vibrant colors. The logo of Gameboy Advance and KiShin appeared before finally revealing the video game title.

"Golden Sun™" appeared, and afterward, Shin could choose whether to name his character or not.

There was an in-game default name, but Shin inputted his name, "Shin," for the character and then selected OK.

After that, the video game finally started with an exclamation text calling "Shin," the in-game character's name, and the scene changed to a bed with another character.

Shin quietly observed the performance of the Gameboy Advance so far, and, quite noticeably, from the beginning, he saw no problems. Instead, he felt like he was playing a Gameboy Advance SP in his previous life.

The video game cartridge that he inserted into the Gameboy Advance was one of his favorite games from his previous life, "Golden Sun."

Shin recalled being a high school student when he played that Gameboy Advance video game in his previous life. He remembered being deeply engrossed in playing the RPG game.

"Golden Sun" for Gameboy Advance was actually one of the reasons why Shin decided to work in the video game industry after finishing university. To pursue this career path, Shin in his previous life chose a course that would help him secure a job in the video game industry. Despite his parents' objections, Shin chose to be independent at that time. Math (Shin's name in his previous life) and his parents had different ideals; Math wanted to become a game developer, but his parents wanted him to become an engineer. This was because his family, including his father and siblings, were engineers with majors in different categories.

Well, his family in his previous life was somewhat fixated on the engineering profession. This was mainly because his father was Indian, and his mother was Southeast Asian; they believed that only by becoming an engineer could their children achieve success in life.

Thinking about it brought a smile to Shin's face. He remembered in his previous life working in a few companies before becoming an independent video game developer in 2014. Despite receiving support from gamers for his video game, it wasn't enough to sustain his living. As a result, he applied for positions in companies.

"Well, the Gameboy Advance is functioning quite well... I guess it's about time the company needs to expedite the process of putting it into mass production as soon as possible," Shin muttered as he closed the Gameboy Advance. After that, he checked his watch and saw that it was already 5 pm. He went home, and the moment he stepped into the living room, he saw his son, Shinichi, watching Pokémon.

The moment the boy saw him, Shinichi immediately went to hug him. When Shin surprised the boy with the Gameboy Advance, Shinichi jumped in happiness.

Upon seeing Shin giving their son a Gameboy Advance, Mira reprimanded Shin for spoiling the boy. However, Shin just coaxed Mira with a subtle gesture—well, that's probably enough. Shin needs privacy...
