Miyamoto: Zelda could use Vitality Sensor

Nintendo guru Shigeru Miyamoto has hinted that the Vitality Sensor could be integrated into the next Zelda game.

Speaking to NowGamer, he said: Whenever we are going to use any new device, it is possible to expand the appeal to those who are new to the videogaming world.

At the same time, however, it is also fun to think of ways in which we might apply the new technology to existing forms of gameplay – just like the way we are working on the new Legend of Zelda together with Wii MotionPlus.

So maybe you might like to ask me to incorporate the Vitality Sensor into Zelda so that as you become more scared, the enemies become even tougher.”

The Vitality Sensor was unveiled at last year’s E3, but no software has been confirmed for the device. More details are expected to be announced at this year’s event.
