I lol-ed at jumping up and down on the pipe - you could just see the frustration when you realised you forgot 'down'

Really though, how does it feel? Is there any frustration? Do you feel you have the same level of control with mario as you do with a pad?

At first there is quite a bit of frustration, when you overload your mind and everything just triggers at once, but once you get down to relaxing its a lot easier and starts feeling a little more natural.

I feel I have nowhere near the amount of control as I do with a pad to be honest, but I find it a lot more fun because hell I have always wanted to play something with just my mind, there's an odd sort of sastisfaction.

that looks like it would give you one hell of a headache.

also, since you mapped jump to 'muscle', its quite a lot less impressive :lol

I actually find it sort of relaxing, it takes a hell of a lot of practise though.

I did map jump to a brainwave also but hell controlling moving left, running and jumping all at the same time kind of got a bit too much for me to handle at such early stages!

Remember I had only been using this for a very short while when I took this video, people say it can take weeks to gain proper control.

I think I'm starting to think Iwata might be right with the Wii Vitality Sensor...

Label, your Mario playing was awesome, have you tried Mario Kart with this thing? Can you?

I'm not sure I really get it, if you were to play Mario Kart, would you have to constantly think like "go,go,go,fastfasterFASTER!! Left, left, left, right, right, right, DROP THE BANANAS!!"

Or would it be much more relaxed than that? Either way, I love the idea of paying mario and drinking tea at the same time. :lol

Haha Cheers!

I actually tried Mario kart for a little bit after this post, and well it worked.. I just really sucked at it, I came like 7th, I might try again later and take a video.

I will explain how I made it work though, I thought forward the whole time to well of course go forward (this was the same thought I used for Mario, to run right), I then played around with different patterns of thinking until the cart turned left, then the same for the right (which I bound to Alpha 2 and Beta 1), I then remembered these thoughts and then thought them each time I needed to turn. To shoot my weapon I just thought the same thought as go forward just a lot stronger (as I bound weapon to the same Alpha wave).

I hope that makes some kind of sense, also I have no idea if that is how you go about operating this hardware but it kinda works for me. :lol

edit: After reading this post back to myself, it sound like I am freaking nuts!

Not seen this sort of thing mapped to existing games before, nice work!

So basically you could use this in a FPS to just think about shooting and you are faster than before clicking the mouse button? awesome!

It's too expensive to buy it for testing purposes though

This will be mine.

I wonder if something like this improves concentrations skills outside of video games

omfg, I totally want this. If this turns out to be the future and it can be controlled just as well as when I play CoD with a mouse then shit, I'm staying gaming after all!
