GBA To Control Robotic Gaming Bugs?

Posted by simoniker on from the wonderborg-reborn? dept.

Mitch Randall writes "The new type of gaming coming of is NOT a video game, but robotic gaming - it's the next step beyond video games, where the characters in play are real, articulated robots. I've been working on robotic gaming technology which has been picked up by a major toy company, and is due for release next year. In addition, the system will be optionally controlled by a Nintendo GameBoy SP. We are assembling GameBoy developers to coordinate the release with several game cartridges." Plenty of hype here, but some some interesting ideas involving a sonic positioning system, too.

    Last week Nintendo announced that in the spring they will show a totally new type of gaming, that will surprise alot of people. Many thought it would be the GC2, or a new GBA.

    Want to bet this is it?
