The first suite of games (6) looks similar to Wii Play or Wii Sports and altogether it looks to be about 12 games in total, including: sack-race, hulahoop, long-jump, football, and ski-jump.
I haven't seen any studies done on this device yet but I would imagine it would be in the LPA to MPA zones.
Features:
- triaxial accelerometer (STMicroelectronics LIS3LV02DL)
- magnetometer (Aichi Steel AMI302)
- pressure sensor (STMicroelectronics LPS001DL)
This is the only device besides the KiloWatt and Sqweeze (formerly of IA Labs) that features a pressure-sensitive controller, although on completely different scales. This one I believe is the first hand-held pressure sensitive controller and I am excited to see its components be refined and further developed into other controllers, interfaces and gameplay.
Will you Throw it! Swing it! Squeeze it! to better health?
Sounds interesting. I see a game costs about 12,90 Euro. Are Euro listed using comma instead of dot or is it like 1290 Euro? If it is 1290 Euro, that's a lot of $$!
ReplyDeleteAt 1290 Euro, they'd be uber-rich!
ReplyDeleteI think 12,90 EUR is for 12 games but with the controller and "console" you get the original 6 games.
