I will point out that as interesting as this is, patents are not always an accurate clue to what a company is planning. Heck, Nintendo's patented a lot of things over the last few years or so, For example: http://www.nintendolife.com/tags/Patents http://www.nintendolife.com/tags/Patents That said, based on my experiences with their 'gimmick' controls in the past, I wouldn't want something like this used for the NX default control scheme. Quite a few examples were just buggy as all heck.
