Is is possible this 'haptic technology' is being confused with the HD rumble in the joycons? They didn't announce it because Nintendo are so cool they leave important announcements out.

gizmo1990 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 It's a confusing press release. I'm pretty sure it's just software? So not haptic as we'd all expect it to be, ie hardware, actually feeling some resistance etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They barely mentioned it was a touch screen, probably to stop people getting confused or more likely muppets on here and Gaf going DOOM AND GLOOM because they never play handheld games and now its a 2 pillar system and blah blah blah shoot me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnard Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Can rumble work like the Q-sound directional sound driver that was used in the nineties. Could they balance the delicate rumble between the joycons to give the illusion the buzz comes from a certain area on the screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise it's wait for later in the year when the game (mario) the kids want is out. Id be crazy to part with the wii u wouldn't I? All because I sold both the PS4 and Xbox one s within 2 weeks of buying them. I was going to make a crack about you being whipped, but tbh after reading that last part I'm totally on her side.

The cynic in me remembers that Immersion has patents on everything to do with force feedback and Nintendo might have had to licence this just because they attached force feedback pads to a tablet. Whether they intend to use it or not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to potentially meeting up with Spainkiller for some games, finally, as well as any others offa here. I don't do pubs as any spare time I get away from the wife is spent consuming as much cannabis as possible. Coffeeshop play should be socially acceptable as long as we sit in a corner and keep the noise down. I'd never dream of bringing one out in a Burnley pub, though. That's asking for it.

Christ on a bike. lol I know, we have had 4 Xbox ones so far, the PS4 was purely just to try out (I don't like the os or the controller) so I don't count that lol. so I can see her point, but on the flip side this is a Nintendo console so it won't be going anywhere (and the kids loved watching the released trailers on Friday) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dataDave Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I've never played it before. I'm always cautious of indie games. The only one that has really struck a chord with me so far is World of Goo. Miami is great, of course, but WoG is the only one I could mistake for a mainstream studio release.

SpagMasterSwift Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 The biggest 'switch' so far for me is from thinking of this as a home console you can take out and about to a handheld console you can play on a TV screen. That first ad is to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can tell they have '+' on one side and '-' on the other, and the signs are there to help slide it on the right way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That first ad is to blame. I see it as a games machine. I'm never thinking of handheld/home margins, most likely thanks to the quality that can be found on the 3DS. Handheld gaming is always a nice little step into current generation releases based on previous generations hardware, it'll be a shame to lose that aspect, but fuck it; it'll save me some cash.
