    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.

    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.

    Technically, the Right JoyCon actually has a heartbeat sensor thanks to the Camera that's built in

    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

    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.

    Instead of the finger reading, they should have gone for a Wireless chest pulse reading strap. Could be like a balance board.

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

    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.

    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.

    I remeber there was a video that had a joke about the Wii Vitality Sensor. I don't remember what it was called, but the joke went something like
    "Hey, what's the Wii Vitatlity Sensor supposed to do?"
    "It's supposed to make mad money bitch."

    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

    • @sinteleon
      @sinteleon 5 років тому

      @Otacon464 Yes, but even though the 3DS isn't VR, its' certainly more VR capable than the VB. (for instance, I still hold that Federation Squad is best played with free-aim permanently active. Also there's the VR demo game suite)

    • @sinteleon
      @sinteleon 5 років тому

      @Otacon464 I wouldn't say better than 3DS tbh, 3DS has some advantages over the VR kit method. Like better controls.
