Has anyone else heard of this?Apparently they are going to be "readily"availableto the masses next week for 199.99 euro.

My friend Zac's brother was saying that its really hard to use(and this guy has a 3D system for games going in his bedroom)

First we're bending spoons with our minds, and now we're moving our mouse with it?

This thing is probably never going to sell.

I would believe that. You know, if it was true. Or possible. And if it did exist, it would be for MUCH more than 199.99 euro.

Hrm, if this were to be successful, then reaction time would be greatly improved! Speed of your thoughts sounds very neat.

I've already got a thing that lets me do it. I call it "My Hand"

Ugh, games are meant as an escapism from the world, this seems like it'll just cause more stress.

199.99 euros guarantees I won't be getting it for a long, long time.

Woah, they stole my idea. I thought of this idea when I was like 10 years old, I didn't think it was actually possible.

Now for a mind-controlled mouse, keyboard and the internet.

Think dirty, people. You could accidentally do something wrong too, lol (possibly) for those of you who think too much.

Plus, if you tend to get stressed, would that affect the mouse?

I don't think your reaction is going to be improved, I mean you're already doing that with your hand, you're already reacting, here you just don't have a mouse. It would be neat, and 200 euros is like 400 us dollars?

I'd laugh if 10 years down the line the next Smash game is mind-reading compatible but we all still prefer the Gamecube controller.

Heheh, thank you thank you, I'm here all week.:bee:
She is a beauty of a controller alright, last generation FTW! I'm interested to see where controllers go in the future though, although anything mind-read-y/motion-sensor-y would need to be ridiculously precise to replace the humble control pad.

I love how the guys hand was moving in the video. And he had a mouse conveniently placed in it too.
