Forums - Nintendo Discussion - MUST SEE IT - AMAZING DS-i CAMERA USE !

I swear, NO ONE READS REPLIES. AT ALL. I go "Yeah, the camera tracks your head blah blah blah?"

And we get Megaman, the PERSON I REPLIED TO, going "Hold on guys, I think this might use headtracking?"

And then 5 other people after him either asking how the camera is used or going "Hold on guys, I think this might use headtracking?" Everyone of them completely ignores everyone else. It's almost beautiful in a twisted way.

What's particularly sad is there's only like ~25 posts right now and, already, everything's falling apart.


@hsrob: You couldn't do that with motion sensing.  Accelerometers could certainly get its orientation relative to down, but it has no idea where your face is.  It wouldn't be able to tell the difference between upside down normally and upside down when you're upside down (maybe over the edge of your bed) as well.

calm down man. The thing i was wondering was whether facial recognition software, in the machine or in the game itself, actually helps it adjust the way the image is bent around.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

You mean you couldn't tell from when I said "The camera judges the angle you're viewing the image from"?  Seriously, just admit you ignored all subsequent replies and posted that out of ignorance.

Edit: I'll stop here.  I don't want to derail this thread.



Wow, what? Man, this is awesome! O_O And on a DS!
I had no idea they could do stuff like this with sich limited hardware. Geez, that's really amazing... This game's pretty limited, but still incredible, I can't even begin to imagine what Nintendo could do with stuff like that if they really put their mind to it. Just wow.

nice concept but why can't they make something like this...

 

 

I think they can if they want to use special cards (if dont believe me take a look at ghostwire trailer from the media summit)
