At all? Why not, not considering price?



Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

First of all.. what you talking about is VR.. virtual reality..

This will hapen.. but wii u wiil offer it before ps4..

I have said it before.. Nintendo will make a headversion of the upad, and (like johnny lee's 2007 YT videos) it will do headtracking.. (you could call it analog if you want)

Wii u can send the picture to the head screen.. with motion + and gyro.. you can do perfect headtracking.. (like the e3 bird demo or the tokyo street demo) Nintendo will be first..

Yes, virtual reality.

There is no indication that Nintendo is planning on making that, but tech is available that will make this possible. There is also no reason to believe that either company will do something like this "first".

Perfect headtracking isn't a sure thing with the tech in the Wii U. If motion can not yield good enough results they will have to also implement a motion camera, which Nintendo has not yet done while both Sony and Microsoft have been using for quite some time, Sony especially with Microsoft more in depth recently.

I am only pointing out the possibility of having something rather spectacular using existing tech. Even if they only put sixaxis in a 3D viewer, marketed it as PlayStation and allowed developers to map controls with it for head movements in first person games aside from a simple dual analog controller, it would still be great.

Hum. I remember the VR machines they use to have in the malls in the mid 90s. Where you would where gloves and goggles and move around in a circle. I'm not sure that I would really want this, but if implemented in a cool way I would give it a try. Survival horror games would freak me out using this.

i don't know, i can see that maybe for slower single-player games but i don't really want to move my head as i do in the games with a stick playing games online, constantly moving the head as fast as you can to look in different direction all the freaking time to always know where or where not someone is? don't really want to kill my neck^^

i love the idea of a 360° camera on the head if it isn't heavy (but no clue as long as i never experienced that) but i don't want to move my head.

You wouldn't have to move your head all that much and really it wouldn't be much different then the amount you move your head in normal everyday activities...oh and the 3D viewer weighs 0.9 lbs

What is this 360 degree camera you speak of? What would a camera on the head accomplish?

It would be expensive, uncomfortable, unproductive to local multi-player, and a general pain in the ass.

Holodeck or bust.

When nintendo do this.. it will be on the upad tec.. but without buttons and touch.. It will be a "series" like GH, buzz and singstar.. but more cheap than the rockband set.. This will happend..

And a gamer headphone. whit a light screen in front issent that uncomfortable.. 

2  players (wii u supports two upad) can play same time.. (or online whit others). and people in the room can watch the play on the tv.. Thats pretty simple.. (and the price will be like 150-180$ for one headset and a presentation game)

Chark@ There are a lots of signs.. and as i said.. wii u is prepared.. can send the picture.. and do you saw the bird demo and street demo.. When you get wii u (if you do) try to hold the upad fixed in front of the head (in the bird/street demo or games that supports it).. and look around.. thats VR..

And it will happend,, but nintendo is playing it safe.. and are not making wii u a "vr consol" but wait a litle, and make it a choise insted (like wii-board) i'm sure.. but wait and see..
