Nintendo Patented an "Illumination Device" for Gaming Use

It doesn't seem like a device that would forever change the way we see games, but the effects of light and colour should not be underestimated. Imagine how different colours could lend to the atmosphere of someone practising yoga on Wii Fit or facing an anxious moment in Resident Evil 4, for example. At the very least it would have blown the Wii's notification light out of the water.

:) Nintendo's plans are coming soon!

Chrischi19883783d ago

Seems like Ambilight from Phillips.

iplay1up23783d ago

Uggg, I saw Microsoft's Illumiroom, and no thank you.

SteamPowered3783d ago

Please be a lightsaber, Please be a lightsaber, Please be a lightsaber....

iplay1up23783d ago (Edited 3783d ago )

Where after READING this, would you even remotely think light saber? The article specifically says 'projection' like on something, walls or 'curtains'.....

SteamPowered3783d ago

This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or as random as a blaster. An elegant weapon... for a more civilized age.

wonderfulmonkeyman3783d ago (Edited 3783d ago )

Mood colors? Could make playing zombi U in the dark a whole lot more exciting....

DC7773783d ago

That's actually a pretty cool idea.

iplay1up23783d ago

Wow, if u think this is cool you should check out Microsoft illumiroom. I think BOTH are dumb....clearly this plan Nintendo HAD 4 years ago on Wii is not happening any time soon.

Madock3783d ago

That is the simpler yet more effective & affordable option of illuminating device
MS always go to blow things out of proportion while Nintendo goes for simplicity

Welp, Now Nintendo's Going After Sheet Music

It should come as no surprise that Nintendo is pretty protective regarding its IP. Going after emulators, ROM hacks, and reproductions is one thing, but it looks like the firm is starting to aim its sights on something rather surprising: sheet music.

Nintendo sure knows how to take the fun out of everything.

MeteorPanda3d ago

this reminds me of that nintendo facebook social media question where they asked people what their favourite nintendo song was and people posted yt links. EVERY SINGLE ONE WAS TAKEN DOWN

Knightofelemia3d ago

You want to kill a party fast just invite Nintendo. But we are talking about a company who took down pictures of a strategy guide that has never appeared in the west. You don't see Square taking down music or sheet music to Aerith's theme, Tifa's theme, June Mermaid. Memorable tunes stick with fans to great games. Nintendo games have fans that have been routed since the NES. People have Youtube vids showing how to play Zelda's lullaby on piano, violin or my favorite the harp. Nintendo taking down sheet music or those curious about a Japanese strategy guide makes Nintendo look like an asshole to those fans.

PRIMORDUS3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Torrent and Usenet is the way. Imagine if all these people just share game music, roms, fan remakes in that way instead of on a website. Nintendo would be so helpless and cannot do anything we all win LOL

gold_drake3d ago

its abit ridiculous at this point.

PRIMORDUS3d ago

Out of spite those people should now out put all that music in a torrent upload and share it (I will seed for them🤣) Then email Nintendo the link to it lol. Good luck taking down a torrent. Torrents and Usenet is the only way to get around anything Nintendo tries to take down because they can't. This is the way to preserve games and game music, without anyone telling you otherwise.

Could care less. I use consoles to play games not for social media.

Cacabunga10d ago

Social garbage should be abandoned altogether.. the world is stupid since these things got introduced

senorfartcushion10d ago

I would say YouTube was more to blame for this weird unrest we are seeing at the minute. That platform has given license to some of the stupidest people to build advice channels for kids growing through their formative learning years. It's no wonder there are so many incels around.

z2g10d ago

The world was stupid before that. Social media just let you see it.

z2g10d ago

It’s for posting content like game captures, not responding to your boo’s pool pictures.

But F twitter anyway

CrashMania11d ago

And nothing of value was lost, that site is a cesspit.

purple10111d ago (Edited 11d ago )

correction, was a cesspit,

now more of just a swamp / everglades / marshland

gold_drake11d ago

not sure who actually used it in the first placd

Vithar10d ago

Good, Twitter is getting worst than 4chan

Great news it shows that Nintendo intends to continue developing ports of AAA games to its next gen platform

H932d ago

Buying studios from embracer now is a great deal, they must be dirt cheap at this point, Nintendo is a opportunist, they wait until someone fall so they get their best deal

OtterX32d ago

That is some serious brain gymnastics you have going on there. 🤔

H932d ago

I didn't do any gymnastics I can assure you, honestly I don't know why you think that, not hating I seriously don't see why you think that

ZeekQuattro32d ago

Yeah I don't know where that came from. It's rare for Nintendo to flat out aquire studios. Guess they were trying to be edgy but why flex on this studio. 🤣

Kneetos31d ago

At least they are safer from layoffs with Nintendo then any other company

banger8832d ago

I hope someone buys Piranha Bytes, their future isn't looking good right now. I love their RPGs, they're janky as f***, but they have heart and soul.

Relientk7732d ago

Nintendo saw the Mortal Kombat 1 Switch port and were like, "Yeah, these guys are worth acquiring."

You can't make this crap up lol

Profchaos32d ago

Mortal Kombat 1 was never going to port well I'm sure they told wb it wasn't going to work but wb wants that sweet sweet 140 million install base

In the end wb approved the project cleared the milestones and allowed the product to release

SonOfOsiris32d ago

Yeah this guys ported MK11 which is great, Hogwarts Legacy which is great, and MK1 is now ok, play it every day
