A story that I feel like "HD vibration" in the "Nintedo Switch" that I understand in various ways, and I am expecting something yet.

At the "Nintendo Switch Presentation & Experience Session" held last weekend, the details of the main body and dedicated software are "Nintedo Switch" (hereinafter "Nintendo Switch").Did you check the content of the presentation, the specifications of the main unit, the title lineup, etc.

In the interview of "Nintendo Switch Presentation & Experience Session", I tried some titles, but at the beginning of the presentation, the words of Shinya Takahashi, the director, explained the philosophy of Nintendo Switch.It was.

That word is

"The family computer had two controllers."

"In Game Boy, we have decided to take video games out."

"In the Super Nintendo, in addition to the A / B buttons, the X / Y buttons and L / R buttons were added to make the game more enjoyable."

"Nintendo 64 has developed a vibration pack that vibrates the controller for the first time in the world with an analog input."

"In the Game Cube, I put on a portable handle. From this time, I suggested that I brought a stationary game console for home use, but it seems a little too early."

"In Nintendo DS, the screen was a touch screen."

"With Wii Remote Control (Wii), motion control is now possible."

"Wii U Gamepad (Wii U) has made games away from the TV."

"Nintendo Switch has inherited the DNA of entertainment and packs all of these. More fun and smiling. Nintendo is always pursuing entertainment, and the new proposal delivered in 2017 is the Nintendo Switch.That's. "

something like.

When I heard this, I felt like "Oh, I see!"Until then, I was able to understand the Nintendo Switch, which had been pretty hot.

There are two controllers on the left and right, it is a hardware that can be taken out, the buttons and analog sticks are fully prepared, the screen is a touch screen, and the motion control is provided.

If you own Wii U, you probably once thought, "I wish I could play the game anywhere, just with Wii U Gamepad, but that's the finished form that cleared it.That's because it became a hardware.

It is convinced that such "points that were good among the Nintendo hardware so far" were aged and this form was as smart as possible.

After all, what surprised me was the controller "Joy-Con".In that size, there is a "motion control" that can be operated like a Wii remote control, there is an "NFC leader writer" that can read and write data such as amiibo, and a "motion IR camera" that can read the shape and distance of objects.There is an "HD vibration" that can express the number of ice you put in and various feel that water is poured into the cup.

The most interesting feeling is "HD vibration".

What I tried at the experience session was "The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild", "Arms", and "1-2-Switch" (only Gunman "played for time.It's a shame that I couldn't experience this "HD vibration" in the title.

If you think about it in various ways, the direction of "HD vibration" is interesting.In the first place, because of the name "HD vibration", I wonder what it is at first.The vibration function starts with the "vibration pack" released as a peripheral device for Nintendo 64 in 1997, and is now in mostly installed in the most stationary game aircraft controllers, but it has a major evolution.There is no.

It is such a vibration function, but it does not just tremble, but evolves into an area of expressing the touch by vibration, which is exactly the HD of the vibration function.I guess HD vibration is such a name.

「振動によって触感を表現する」というのは、まだ未知の領域というか、実体験している人が少ないものだと思うのですが、僕が体験したものだと、iPhone 7のホームボタンなんかがそれですよね。iPhone 7のホームボタンは、ボタンではなく感圧式のセンサーであり物理的には一切動かないのですが、指で押すようにすると「パコッ」という押し込んだときのクリック感が伝わってくるsomething like.これも振動による錯覚なのですが、不思議な触感があるんです。

Actually, the HD vibration of Nintendo Switch has not yet been experienced, so it is not clear how much expressive power is ... but the phrase "expression of vibration" itself has not been so much.However, it seems that the higher the expressiveness, the more the development and possibilities are felt.It is a technology that seems to be compatible with the VR (virtual reality) area.

振動の表現力で触感を再現するという「HD振動」。新しい可能性を感じさせます

I personally think that the two controllers are naturally equipped as standard is very important.Playing together is important and strong.And it's also important to be "carried hard" in the sense that you don't miss the opportunity to play with someone.

While holding down both points, the title lineup is "1-2-Switch", "Super Bonbaman R", "Puyo Puyo Tetris S", and there are titles with a sense of standard.But I think it feels good.Even if you want to play with someone, if it's a complicated game, you'll end up without being able to enjoy it well.Especially when you are an adult, that is the case.

"1-2-Switch" is already an intuitive ultimate title, and if you know "Bomberman" and "Puyo Puyo Tetris", you can understand it immediately.I think it will be the hard and software that you want to bring aggressively when people gather.

本体と同日発売のソフトは8本。直感的な「1-2-Switch」、定番感のある「スーパーボンバーマンR」、「ぷよぷよ テトリス Ｓ」といった、誰かと一緒に遊ぶのに適しているタイトルがあるのがポイントですね

Conversely, considering the direction of “enjoying and using alone”, I am personally concerned that it can be used as a “tablet terminal”.

It has been newly reported that the screen is a capacity -capacity touch screen, and it is a place to associate because it is that shape anyway.I don't think it's not just a game but also a tablet terminal, playing videos, reading videos, reading e -books, and that doesn't work for smartphone apps.

Unfortunately, there seems to be no SIM card slot, so it seems that there is no direction that it can be used as a tablet outside and used as a tablet.

There is a feeling that it is not surprisingly how to use the touch screen and what is around the functions other than the game.I would like to expect a development like "Actually ...".

By the way, I personally understood various things, and it was a Nintendo Switch that has been highly expected because I can see the usage scene, but reservations have been started on January 21 at stores and online shopping sites, and at Mynintendo Store.The reservation starts on January 23 (the payment method at the My Nintendo Store is only for payment by credit card).If you want to get it quickly, do your best to make a reservation.

Oh, Sega Games, please transplant "Ichini Tantes and Bonanza Brothers."You can play together.

I want to do "spy vs spy".

こういう画面分割タイプのゲームも、コントローラー2つ標準装備＆持ち運び可能なニンテンドースイッチなら、一緒に遊ぶチャンスが多くなりそう。セガゲームスさん「ボナンザブラザーズ」遊びたいので、よろしくお願いします！

Then, this time.see you next week.
