- Not to be confused with the previous trademark thread created by this fucking asshole:

- patent was submitted by Fumihiko Inoue (known to file patents on behalf of Nintendo by the gaming community)

- stealthy patent application is stealthy

- Abstract:

An example system includes a housing having at least one surface provided with a display, a linear image sensor located, facing outside the housing, at a side part or a corner part of the housing when the surface provided with the display is viewed as a front surface, and an information processing unit performing information processing based on an image obtained by the linear image sensor.

- analysis from Gamingbolt:

So what did the actual filing reveal? The most interesting thing is the linear image sensor located, facing outside the housing. It appears that this kind of feature would allow for syncing with a handheld device. The technology included in this patent would also seemingly allow for Amiibo integration easier than it can be done with the Wii U or the 3DS. Check out the images below and see if anything stands out to you when it comes to this latest Nintendo NX filing.
