Nintendo Patent Hints That 3DS Will Get Force Feedback?

While you’re currently able to get force feedback on your Nintendo DS via unofficial channels, speculation is going around the Nintendo might integrate a force feedback (rumble) feature into the upcoming Nintendo 3DS. In a patent application, it can be clearly seen that Nintendo has a vibrating motor in a console that looks more or less like a DSi, which is a good indication that the company is looking to force feedback integration. Of course, just because Nintendo has filed for such a patent, it doesn’t guarantee that the 3DS will be getting such a feature. Still, there’s nothing wrong with us dreaming about the possibility, right?

Patent filing.
