Nueva patente de nintendo..alucinaciones?

Cito literalmente la noticia de Slashdot:

Nintendo Patents Insanity
Posted by CmdrTaco on Tuesday August 30, @07:05PM from the please-tell-me-this-is-a-joke dept.

theodp writes "Nintendo scored a patent Tuesday for a Sanity system for video game, which covers causing a game character to hallucinate - e.g., see bleeding walls and hear maniacal laughter - as its sanity decreases in response to encountering a creature or gruesome situation."


Y este es el enlace a la patente

¿Alucinaciones? ¿Tendrá algo que ver con los champiñones del Mario? What the fuck?

pd: de que fecha es esa noticia? has jugado a eternal darkness?
Si no me equivoco, precisamente eso (mas o menos) es lo que sucede en el juego Fahrenheit (aún no ha salido a la venta).

La verdad es que me parece una estupidez. Es como si patentasen el hecho de que un personaje de videojuego puede saltar o sonarse los mocos.

A video game and game system incorporating a game character's sanity level that is affected by occurrences in the game such as encountering a game creature or gruesome situation. A character's sanity level is modified by an amount determined based on a character reaction to the occurrence such as taking a rest or slowing game progress and/or an amount of character preparation. That is, if a character is prepared for the particular occurrence, the occurrence may have little or no affect on the character's sanity level. As the character's sanity level decreases, game play is effected such as by controlling game effects, audio effects, creating hallucinations and the like. In this context. the same game can be played differently each time it is played.


EDIT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to video games, and, more particularly, to a new gameplay feature for video games, such as Role Playing Games (RPGs) and the like, wherein the sanity (e.g. mental state) of the player or game character is used to enhance gameplay.

¿Ahora los juegos de Nintendo van a psicoanalizarnos?
"Usted es demasiado sadico para jugar a este juego"
