switch joycon pointer technology - no more sensor bar- -touchscreen-

remember on the wii you pointed the wiimote at the tv and you could use it as a mouse for selecting stuff?

well, a new eshop game for switch world of goo was also on the wii. this game used the pointer controls of the wiimote.

so the switch version....how can i play it without a wiimote and sensor bar?

gamexplain...explains

you can also play the game with the touch screen in handheld mode!

didnt know that.

It's nothing new. Wii motion plus worked the same way years ago.

i see... those wii motion plus wiimotes also IR though right? like when you navigated the wii menu? you had to use the sensor bar.

Thats pretty smart using the Gyro. Well done Nintendo, well done.

ok i take back what i said lol

i just got world of goo...its a cool game i like it....but i have to recenter the joy con every minute lol a bit annoying :P

you can also play the game with the touch screen in handheld mode!

didnt know that.

Skyward Sword used the gyro for pointing. It's why I hope they fix up that game for a switch remaster.... With all its problems fixed, it would probably be my favorite of the OoT-style games, right after Wind Waker.
