Well we were all pretty much shocked when Nintendo announced the Wii with it's motion control things but Nintendo wants to take it one step further according to this article out of the Telegraph NewsPaper.

The development came as the video games maker Nintendo disclosed that it wanted to build on the success of the motion-sensitive technology used in the best-selling console, the Wii, by developing games that can be controlled by thought.

So if Nintendo get this thought thing to work on their next new console will you a buy?

Mmmmm.... a thought based game? Man. The amount of sandwiches I would get it to make.........

I think there gets to a point where Nintendo steps out of the game-developing field, and into the world domination field. They've just crossed the line....

Well I mean if you look at the Wii Remote, I mean that wasn't GROUND BREAKING at the time, just produced in a way that was usable my consumers. Basic mind powered devices exist now, though they are SERIOUSLY basic still

Lol,Nintendo had done enough in motion-sensitive games.That is their success when making out wii motion plug after they learn from games fans.The problem is not what they thought,but consumers'.If they can meet consumers' demand,and lead them to new concept of games at the same time.That is what they should consider.

awww... I was hoping the next step would be holodecks. Can't someone please show Miyamoto some episodes of ST:TNG?

But seriously, there are already a few companies out there developing thought control devices. They are very rudimentary so far, but if anyone could take the basic idea and make it mainstream, it would be Nintendo....

I would buy this. It be awesome as! Would bring new definition to multi tasking, you could be smashing up Bowser as Mario, playing DS AND maybe eating!

But with this, you would obvious have to concentrate on the game, like what if you start to think of stuff that arent game related? Would that mean your character would kill himself?

Will I buy hmm?

Using the brain for multitasking would be fantastic.
But god knows how much will it cost.
Hopefully they can have it cheap like they have always have!

I wouldn't want to control by thought, but imagine a shooter where your respiratory and heart rate where measured and they had affects on the gameplay, such as adrenaline rushes or your ability to keep your aim under pressure.

-EDIT-
LOL just had a hilarious thought. Youtube search 'angry halo' or something similar. Now imagine how pissed they would get XD
