Nintendo Wii and DS games could soon feature an intriguing vo﷽ice-recognition system that can read and analyse your speech.
Analysed text can be displayed as text on other players' consoles during multiplayer games with t▨he tone of your voice altering the colour, size and font of the text, according to a US patent held by Nintendo.
As you speak, the system picks up on your voꦿice pattern - shout "I WIN!" and it will appear in big red capital letters; whisper and it'll be much smaller and in a more subdued colour. The patent, issued in February, has surfaced after an IGN forumite claimed♋ to know of Nintendo's plans to use a system called 'voice-to-text communication' in its games.
It's unclear whether the😼se plans are priꦛmarily for Wii games, but the forum poster also claims that "some peripherals for DS will be compatible with Wii and vice versa," suggesting good compatibility between the two consoles.
We'll be c🍸hasing up Nintendo for an ওofficial response but until they respond why not .
