Nintendo has quietly been working on the QOL (Quality Of Life) platform which will be not about video games, but about health. Tonight the first part of Nintendo’s Quality Of Life platform was revealed, and it’s dealing with sleep patterns. Teaming up with ResMed, the device will monitor your sleeping habits and send that data to a cloud.

While QOL is a separate entity for Nintendo, it will be interesting to see if this venture will be successful for the company.

My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Well, this basically confirms that this is a small, experimental step and not a giant pillar. I'm totally fine with this...

Look at my newest post, looks like it does more than that. But it's hard to tell, not understanding Japanesse.

We should have translation soon.

I am a sucker for fitness games, I have them all. so, God willing I will buy this crappy thing as well. If we are around in 2016...

– QOL device is non-wearable, non-contact, non-operating (no controls), non-waiting, and non-installation efforts
– First QoL device monitors your sleep
– QoL device seems to send data monitored while you sleep to the cloud to be analyzed
– Teaming up with American company “resmed”
– Basically you put it next to your bed and sleep
– The device collects data and then presents a score along with ways to improve sleep and tiredness
– Things like dietary advice, exercise, etc.
– Separate services to be provided in order to improve QOL and be measured by the sleep sensor in a feedback loop
– QOL servers to connect with gaming devices, QOL servers, and smart devices to expand the definition of a platform
– “QOL Improvement” device(s?) will be compatible with Nintendo consoles and smart “devices”
– This begins starting in 2016

You buy a pillow, sheets, blankets, then go to sleep.

Yeah, maybe you buy this thing and go to sleep.  Who knows with Nintendo.
