Nintendo shows off “a new experience” by debuting a new accessory for the Switch



The Nintendo Direct wasn’t all that Nintendo had to show this week, as a surprise trailer has gone up on their channel, showing off something unexpected. A belt-like object is featured in the video, being used in a variety of ways, such as a bow, a steering wheel, and on one’s leg as a fitness tracker. The product seems to have a focus on multiplayer gatherings and parties, with players needing one of the belt-like devices and a Joy-Con strapped in to make use of it. More information and details are scheduled to be revealed on September 12th.

all these people complaining. you could..oh I don't know.. IGNORE IT IF YOU DON"T LIKE IT? people lack common sense these days. Just hate on things and ignorant to everything. I don't care for this thing at the moment,but if I see what it can do and is supported (doubtful) then I'll likely get one. Not going to condemn something different,because that's childish.

Nintendo says yes you are the only one as we make stuff to last for years unless Yr dog gets hold of it
I've legitimately never had a Nintendo product break on me before (except a set of joy-cons that started drifting), and still have the same GBA SP I did when I was a kid.

I was being more rhetorical than anything.

They hav not even shown what it does properly yet
It collects dust if you ask me.

i kinda dont care, i talk from my perspective, and my preference and perspective isnt this dust collector but actual games and gameplay inovations and experimenting. Nintendo always had bunch of accessories that i never use or see anyone using in long terms. Only usefull ones for me is charging cradle for wiiu gamepad and such, they actually do something without just collecting dust and being clunky, and i i not forget them in a month or so. Well, anyway, as i i sa, i would like more focus on games...

But they show product, whatever wouldn't be a first time they advertise dust collector, but whatever.

...but what got ME to write is "dalas, tokyo, france... etc" i mean it looks so stupid and unnessesary to tell that. First i thought its something online or it HAS some importanc for a product that they say that...but...
I just dont like it.

Well here you go, my first impression. Bad.
I mean accessory alone getting so much atention and a commercial is bad by it self let alone execution imo.

Its not that i dont see, its that i think its just a dust collector. I much more prefer game focus and long term fun we casual short term burst of fun for...family?? Ever since that became mainstream, family fun, real games and gameplay lost their way. There are many ways to have fun with family, and nintendo isnt the only way ..but its i way, but im talking from a perspective of a gamer who wants good games and more inovative games and less accessories and dust collectors.

But anyway, let them sell dustcollectors to people who buy them, i dont care personally, they have money to make them...in fact they have so much money they just dont know what to do anymore!

Anyway,i was commenting on "tokyo, dalas, new york..." part, it feels stupid somehow xD
awailable worldwide at the end would be better imo, if thats the reason.

Ony gimmick i aproove is wiimote, its actually pretty good and compact. its not clunky, and you play games naturally with it.

emphasis on a "not clunky* part.

But somehow i feel youre not interested in my opinion, but..here i said it anyway.

I cant cant r point my finger and be positive when whole gaming i dustry feels nothing like it used to be, and gamers also. They all got sucked up in what companies give them they dont even know what they want, but want what they give them and what others say its good.

Gaming is no longer simple.
Joypad, game, tv = great times

So yeah, its a dust collector. Fuck family fun i say! Go outside with your family. You dont need to spent 300$ to have fun with your loved ones!

The thing is that this is a new IP.
Nintendo is going to show the real game on 9/12.
The accessory is only part of the complete experience.

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.

    nvm it does support mine

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
