Extreme Reality launches motion control iPad development contest

Extreme Reality is running a contest known as iPad Challenge 2013 that tasks developers with adding full-body motion control to a new or existing iPad game, with prizes of up to $10,000, the company announced today.

Israel-based Extreme Reality makes software that allows developers to implement full-body motion tracking similar to that offered by Microsoft's Kinect, but with a single camera instead of multiple cameras.

Entrants into Extreme Reality's iPad Challenge 2013 will receive the company's software development kit for free, with which they'll have until Oct. 15 to submit their motion-enabled iPad game to Extreme Reality. A panel featuring the following four individuals will begin judging the games Oct. 25: Trip Hawkins, founder of EA; Jeff Pulver, founder of voice-over-IP company Vonage; David Nixon, content director for the Casual Games Association; and Matt Turetsky, chief operating officer at Doodle Jump developer Lima Sky.

The developers of the first-, second- and third-place games will receive prizes of $10,000, $6,000 and $3,000, respectively. The grand prize winner will also score a meeting with Hawkins, who joined Extreme Reality's board of directors last fall. And the Extreme Reality community, including fellow entrants, will select a People's Choice Award winner, who will receive a MacBook Air.

"The Extreme iPad Challenge is the perfect way to showcase the talent of indie developers while also incorporating the Extreme Motion technology on iOS," said Hawkins in a press release announcing the contest.

Nintendo sold more than 268M consoles, 385M handhelds in 30 years

Since the launch of the Famicom in 1983, Nintendo has sold 268.97 million home consoles and 385.15 million handheld units, according to the company's most recent annual report.

The report also states the company has sold 2.195 billion software units for its console hardware and 1.907 billion for its handhelds to date.

These numbers include all SKUs for each of Nintendo's gaming hardware — the Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo 64, GameCube, Wii and Wii U and the handhelds Game Boy, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS. The reported software numbers also include downloadable games and games bundled with hardware.

Earlier this spring, Nintendo posted a $366 million operating loss for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013. In a message accompanying the most recent financial report, president Satoru Iwata said he expected Nintendo to regain its footing by the end of this fiscal year.

"Nintendo posted an operating loss for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013," reads Iwata's statement. "However, we strive to regain 'Nintendo-like' profits for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014 by providing many people with fascinating games and services. We continue to make brand-new and unique proposals, and make efforts for the growth of the home entertainment industry with a mission that is to pleasantly surprise people and put smiles on the faces of everyone Nintendo touches."

Last week, Nintendo reported a return to positive results for the quarter ending June 30, 2013. However, the Wii U has continued to have poor sales worldwide and a "negative impact" on profits.

Nintendo's Disappointing Wii U Sales May Be Due To Acts Of God

The artcile is not saying that because Japanese people got hit with an Earthquake and they didn’t have money to buy stuff their sales stunk …The article is [...]


Nintendo ‘s latest video game console may be having a hard time hitting its stride thanks to acts of God. Specifically, the 2011 Japanese earthquake which brought the entire nation to a standstill could have impacted the Wii U’s launch for the worse.

“We launched the Nintendo 3DS on February 2011 and sales were strong,” Nintendo said recently. “Two weeks later we were hit by the Great East Japan Earthquake and that stopped the momentum. In August of the same year we lowered the price from the initial 25,000 Yen to 15,000 Yen, and enhanced software development at the same time, to enrich the game line-up.


How Do You Solve A Problem Like Nintendo?


Nintendo 3DS Number One Selling Video Game System For Second Month In A Row

“That paid off and we regained momentum in Japan, but due to that we could not spare many developers for the Wii U (released in November 2012), and that led to the slow start of the console.”

There’s no doubt that the Great East Japan Earthquake, or Tohoku Earthquake as it is also called, was devastating to the Japanese economy.

The magnitude 9.0 quake was so powerful it pushed Japan over two meters and shifted the world’s axis somewhere between 10 and 25 centimeters.

It also left over 4 million people without power and close to 2 million more without water.

Over 15,000 people died and many thousands more were injured in the disaster. Somewhere close to 300,000 buildings were destroyed.

The costs are hard to pinpoint, but many estimates have concluded that the recovery could end up clocking in at over $300 US billion, making it the costliest natural disaster in history.

This is one of those things we don’t consider enough when thinking about the health of the Japanese tech sector, and especially when we discuss the less-than-stellar launch line-up of the Wii U.

Of course, it’s not the only reason the console is struggling.

Nintendo took a risk on second-screen gaming, making its touch controller an integral piece of the device. That risk may still pay off as the 3DS certainly has, but at the moment the new console is having a hard time finding traction with gamers.

Questi co ste edizioni Day One ci stan marciando sopra che è un amore

Ma tralasciando le iniziative che di per se ci stanno...la cosa comica è che da un lato vedi la concorrenza che fa sold out di pre-order su amazon.de e dall'altro una compagnia che crea bundle dal dubbio interesse .

Assassin's Creed 4 sarà giocabile su PS Vita

Parlando con i ragazzi di Eurogamer, il produttore associato di Assassin's Creed 4, Sylvain Trottier, ha affermato che nonostante non sia in programma il rilascio di una versione PS Vita del gioco, i giocatori saranno comunque in grado di giocare il nuovo capitolo della serie sulla console portatile sfruttando la funzionalità Remote Play prevista nella nuova console Sony. L'unica preoccupazione del team però è quella relativa ai controlli, a riguardo Trottier ha infatti detto che "dobbiamo assicurarci che i controlli siano buoni su Vita, in quanto mancano un paio di pulsanti".

Call of Duty Ghosts: secondo Mark Rubin sarà più concentrato sull'aspetto "emozionale"

Mark Rubin, parlando a GI International, ha detto: "Con Call of Duty Ghosts vogliamo concentrarci ulteriormente sull'emotività del giocatore. Il cane, ad esempio, ha colpito positivamente il pubblico, e leggendo i vari commenti su Twitter dopo la presentazione del gioco è parso chiaro fin da subito che le persone si sono sentite legate al compagno a quattro zampe. Uno dei fan ha scritto "se fate morire il cane non giocherò più a nessun altro Call of Duty". Stiamo davvero cercando di concentrarci sulla storia dei due fratelli, per coinvolgere il giocatore al massimo. Il merito è soprattutto di Stephen Gaghan, che si sta impegnando molto in questo senso".

Articolo interessante :

In quello originale scritto in tedesco (se non erro ) si parla anche della posibilità di usare la One in verticale...

Si rumoreggia che durante la GC verrà annunciato un nuovo gioco One di spessore (qualcuno parla di Fable MMO).

L'interfaccia me gusta ma ritengo (come fu per psvita) che i primi mesi di ps4 saranno un disastro per il sistema operativo .

Ken Levine feels PC and next-gen systems are “very much similar beasts”

niente sul fronte sony? immagino che abbia qualcosa di succoso ancora da annunciare

Secondo me Sony si limiterà ad attaccare ancora sul fronte hardware (dove è palesemente in vantaggio) con bundle/prezzi succosi etc.

Xbox One & Xbox 360 cross-gen games have separate achievements
