Do all Australians share your (lack of) reason, or is it just you?

Think of Bruno, Sacha Baron Cohen's gay Australian reporter. Clearly Australians are crazy.

You know i'm beginning to suspect that Rol isn't actually from Australia.  But yes, Australians are crazy.

 

That is nonsense, of course Rol is Australian. Where else can he possibly come from....Austria? Who lives over there? It is the middle of nowhere...=P



Explanation of sig:

I am a Pakistani.....my name is Dan....how hard is that? (Don't ask about the 101...apparantely there are more of me out there....)

Seriously, why play using your body when you can play with one finger?



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

This would awesome hooked up to the Grinder. The more stressed you get the more monsters on screen. Ditto for Silent Hill being that its a perfect match with the psychological profile.



“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.

It's gonna change gaming by doing nothing. I can't imaging any possibility after reading the OP.

Sometimes, with Nintendo, you just have to sit back and watch.



"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."

Satoru Iwata, Nintendo President. Only slightly paraphrased.

I see what you did there.

Get it because you just put it on your finger and watch... AND Nintendo's unorthodox methods you can never really make a prediction, so you have to sit back and watch.

Sega For Life - Gaming Died When Sega Died ... Sega <3

The nintendo before - ' wii release ' <3
Sega before ' Software Only ' <3

Anti M$ (Therefore anti 360) - im making it official ... Go play your meaningless FPS Games ...

So...did I miss something here? I didn't watch the Nintendo conference, but isn't the vitality sensor a little gizmo you put on your finger, and it monitors your heart rate and blood oxygen content? If I am correct, than I think the OP is completely accurate. I mean think of it. NATAL only has voice and facial recognition, Wii now has vitals recognition. I mean, how cool would it be to sign in just by putting a clippy on your finger. And imagine, the Wii would be able to scale back the difficulty of the new Mario game if your pulse went up (obviously denoting stress). I think the 360 should implement something like this for online play. It could then sense when you were getting stressed from having to listen to that idiot who insists on singing along to a crappy song, and it could automatically mute the bastard!

Don't forget your helmet there, Master Chief!

I just think you don't get it.

I'd love if the vitality sensor is a red herring. Something Nintendo has come up with to see if MS and Sony will follow suit, in the meanwhile they have no interest in it and are busy developing other technologies while people wonder what the hell the vitality sensor is actually for.
