Hardware Ideas for Wii U controller uses

[Veho]

I kinda wish that N made it with a capacitive touchscreen instead of a resistive one so then there could be multi touch input, although it is not nearly as accurate.

Resistive touchscreens can have multitouch but the software usually picks the point where you're pressing the hardest and disregards the other points where it detects pressure. The DS has multitouch capability but not many games take advantage of it.

There capacitive screens with pinpoint accuracy and stylus support. But they're expensive. You can look top WACOM and the Galaxy Note for examples.

Err, very original.

Well i had to use images of the 3ds app as theres no images on the net of a wii u music app... Anyway the 3ds doesnt stream music from a harddrive, Nor is it used as a wireless speaker, So i struggle to see where your going with that.

So a music player would work fine?

Without any need to be within range of the console.

Well yeah. if you fancy dragging the music player into the bathroom while you have a bath. then sure why not.

Because a tablet is much better?

Well im sorry but wasnt this thread created to share ideas for possible uses for the controller? Im not going to argue whether my idea is original or not, Im just going to point out that you have brought absolutely nothing to this thread.

I can't look at my Wii U tablet and the television at the same time. The battles would be impossible.

You couldn't look at both DS screens either. You just switched between them very quickly.

I'm not that coordinated and my neck is stiff. Plus, the two DS screens are in the same space all the time. The Wii U tablet and the television do not have that guarantee.

I just hope the controller itself is rechargeable, and doesn't require any AA batteries...

It's rechargeable. That was already confirmed.

I'm not too well caught up on the news regarding the Wii U. Regardless, thank you.

I didn't think it would be that hard,but for the best case scenario, it would probably come with a stand to keep it in place for people who can't do it on they're own.

I wounder if some company will make a mouse to connect to the control for pc fans?

Minigames while games are loading new environments, or when there isn't a skip option during cutscenes.

Hehe, a controller using a backlit LCD panel with force feedback, motion controls and extremely advanced wireless capabilities would have difficulty running off 1.5 volts.
