New Video Game Controlled By Kissing
unassimilatible writes "Artist Hye Yeon Nam has put her video game where her mouth is — literally — with the creation of a new bowling game that's controlled only by passionate (and awkward) French kissing. The Kiss Controller, as it's called, has two components: a headset that functions as a sensor receiver and a magnet that provides the sensor input, Time reports. Could this be the first example of technology that Slashdotters will be unable to use, as they likely won't be able to get a controller?"
They could just form pairs.
The next day, my alarm goes off
And I won in my pants
Open my window and a breeze rolls in
And I won in my pants
When Bruce Willis was dead at the end of Sixth Sense
I won in my pants
I just ate a grape
And I won in my pants
I am waiting for the girls virtual joystick stick controller that has shake weight action.
Got Code?
You might as well put it on the surface of 704 Interamnia for all the good it will do me.
Okay, it's only with fixodent. Still seems silly.
Then again, Twister seemed silly – until I had someone to play Naked Twister with.
Lower.... Lower... Lower... Lowerrrrr....
This seems like the type of devices they use for speech analysis in relation to tongue position. I wonder if this can be adapted for language coaching, or perhaps for field measurements of languages used in remote areas.
A revolution in portable gaming.
I can think of somewhere else where you'd get a much better range of motion!!
No, she's just trolling all the desperate lonely guys out there. Looks like it worked.

This actually might be the first piece of technology we might not be able to use, as the controllers sure mus-- oh. I get it, very funny timothy.
Does swallowing the magnet void the warranty?
really Hot Geek Girl invents kissing game Stuff the bowling thats Hot.
I'm sure that's what will get most use of this controller. I foresee the 'adult' game producers lining up to do something with this.
The controller uses Fixodent? Wasn't that proved to be harmful? Not to mention not very sexy... Interesting idea though.
Public kissing is still pretty taboo here, but they really like to run stories about Koreans doing interesting things, especially abroad, I wonder how this will get covered here.
Can't get a controller....speak for yourself I have a great controller!
vindicate my stereotyping of Slashdotters in my submission. I am now quite convinced that we are dealing with living, breathing virgins.

For many in the audience, this does not adhere to the KISS model (Keep It Simple, Stupid).
Use my userscript to add story images to Slashdot. There's no going back.
After years of not being able to participate in all night Halo matches or play WoW because I have too many projects around the house, it finally pays off to be a /.er with a wife.
we were just playing a bowling game......

getting the controller is a bitch.

A prostitute? Not at all, officer. I just invited her to the back seat of my car for some bowling!
The fact that you responded in such an emotional, humorless manner to an obvious joke, suggests that you are, in fact, one of those borderline Asperger's sexless geeks.

Several people here are probably building their own controllers for this right now. And I don't mean building traps to catch people with. I mean sex robots. Or hell, even hooking up. Slashdot has a forum, right? "LFM for Kissing Game", the greatest matchmaking service for nerds since alcohol.
There is no -1 Disagree.
She knew her son and his best mate were WAY to close. But still, nobody should have to see two naked slashdotters humping. NOBODY!
MMO Quests are like orgasms:
You may solo them, I prefer them in a group.
Video games are what you do when you don't have a girl to kiss.
Fufme; way ahead of its time.

OMG, look how the game's progress bar gets longer and longer....
no pun intended lol
"magnet to his/ her tongue with Fixodent" Certainly nothing bad could come of that... Like kids swallowing the magnets. Very bad idea.
“Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.”
Thus the key to being a good bowler is to have a dog of a girlfriend
Will the headset fit my dog?
I've abandoned my search for truth; now I'm just looking for some useful delusions.
She had me at "Video game controlled by kissing" and then immediately lost me at "bowling". Could anything be unsexier than bowling??!
