Future Nintendo DS By Mario Troise

admin — Tue, 10 May 2011 09:19:35 +0000

For me, the future of gaming technology surpasses the realms of reality. Every designer is keen on offering his renditions of what the future of gaming may look like. The latest rendition of the future of the Nintendo DS by designer Mario Troise is sure to attract the attention of many a gamers. The designer’s vision of the future Nintendo DS consists of a console with some unbelievable features. Mario’s concept portable console consists of a single flexible touch screen. Offering a 3D experience like never before where the 3D graphics pop out of the screen, the mega resolution of this screen promises to change your gaming experience forever. What is more the console itself can be used in many different ways. The console can be used as a board game and played over a surface. Great for multi player games, players can also use both their hands to play.

Complete with motion sensors, cameras (one in front, one in back), GPS, light sensors, this console is what I wish the future of gaming technology to be like. What is more, the cameras recognize any gestures, faces and movement, creating a complete interaction with the games. The designer has envisioned for this futuristic console a fast processor and a system that allows multiple applications and games running at the same time.
A sleek concept, there are no changes in the mechanical buttons like the arrow and round buttons; it is truly a class apart. Besides a volume button on the side, this console includes a stylus for various drawing applications. And lastly it has an SD card slot for games and files.

Xbox Mini By Camille Jean

Designer Camille Jean is bound to send gamers into a tizzy with her Xbox Mini concept. Jean has answered the dreams of millions of fanboys with her mock-up that turns the popular Xbox console into a pocket-sized handheld.

Microsoft is currently the only member of the gaming big three (Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo) to not have a portable gaming system. The Xbox Mini is designed to fill that void with its unique yet practical design.

The Xbox Mini is a slider console, sliding left and right to close and open. The Xbox Mini features two joysticks and a d-pad, putting it well ahead of the PSP, which was harped on for having only one analog stick, and the Nintendo DS, which was ruthlessly criticized for having none. Overall, the Xbox Mini looks good with my only complaint being the Xbox logo that obscures the right part of the screen.

Interactive Reality Gaming Device

The mobile and easy to use device only supplies the necessary infrastructure, such as Interface, GPS, internet and communication, for collaborative reality games, but it doesn’t provides the required setting for the game, which usually causes fitness related problems among users. German designer Nico Klaeber in collaboration with Debbie Poon and Hanson Wong has developed a Gaming Device Concept dubbed the “Interactive Reality” that attracts teenagers towards a new kind of reality gaming to ensure a healthy lifestyle. Presenting an ergonomic design, the new gaming device moves young gamers, without communicating them, into an altogether different environment that apart from allowing a wonderful gaming experience also makes them aware about their health and fitness.

Sony PSi Game Gadget by Anh Nguyen

admin — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 22:20:48 +0000

Sony unveiled their motion control intentions at this year’s E3 game expo so designer Anh Nguyen must be riding the same wavelength because his PSi concept also features wand-like motion controllers. The console leaves a little something to be desired but the wands are very interesting. You can stack the wands for various games like tug-o-war or add weights if you insist on the video game fitness craze going on right now. If Anh wants to really impress, he better come up with renders showing the wands as light sabers and disrupters. PEW PEW!
