    A early type of the "Vitality sensor" was released way back for the N64 with the game "Tetris 64". Known as the "Bio Sensor". I think the reason it failed is because you basical have to clip it onto your finger, and it presses onto your finger nail, the longer your finger nails the more it will ache. Sort of like biting the tip of your fingers lightly, then trying to bend them. They work pretty good, but it's a bit like taking a clothespin and attaching it to your finger to play a game...

    I think you forgot to mention about how the vitality censor did give a bit of a chance to live on as the Switch’s IR camera on the joy-con for a surprising function for RingFit Adventure. By covering the camera with the thumb it measures the pulse after a hard workout during Adventure Mode. Whether it is to-the-numbers accurate is beyond me but I noticed how it would produce numbers that indeed reflect my body’s level of exercise I would produce at the time and tell me how hard I am working out.

    that vitality sensor is actually pretty interesting to bad it couldn't be made to work

      They eventually did... With the IR scanner of the Joy-con. Heart pulse rate detection currently used by Ring-Fit Trainer only, but still.

    They should integrate the vitality sensor with a survival horror game. When your hartbeat goes above a certain point the monsters could sence you.

    There was also a keyboard peripheral for the SNES by TranDirect Holding together with Nintendo of America to be used for online banking but ultimately was never released.

    Don’t know if it belongs here since it’s gonna be release. Pokémon Sleep looked like it was based on a cancelled project that Iwata was working on before he died. There was a report that the following president, Kimishima had cancelled a product that’ll track your records of sleeping. It just made me think that Pokémon Co. revive that project as it’s own.

    I must say the majority of these I had no idea about!!! Sad they didn't come to light - by this time some of those ideas might be halfway decently developed ideas!
    On the plus side however there is some hope still as hardware is advancing (Zen 2 architecture, advancements in direct x 12 with it's multi GPU implementation & such) add to that VR being better than ever (although still somewhat in it's infancy) perhaps in another decade and a half or so we might just see reworked versions of some of these idea rolling out!

    The vitality sensor somewhat came back. in Ring Fit Adventure, you can use the IR Camera on the Joy-Con to check your heart rate.

    Fun fact: The Switch can measure your heart rate by holding your thumb over the IR camera on the right joy-con. This however is only utilized in Ring Fit Adventure but is fairly accurate

  • @patricknguyen7530
    @patricknguyen7530 4 года назад

    Here’s a peripheral that Nintendo hinted for the Switch but as of now hasn’t come out, it’s the Switch reveal video, people were playing Mario Kart on a car stand for Switch, unless something changes, Nintendo has never revealed the car stand for Switch

    What if there was a wii horror game that used the vitality sensor? It could have an on-screen heart rate monitor and adjust gameplay elements according to your bpm.
