Random: Switch's Santa Tracker App Plays Christmas Songs Using Joy-Con HD Rumble, But It's Terrifying Nintendo Life

Jingle Bells is angrier than we remember by Share: You may remember that just last week, we reported on - a piece of software released on the Switch eShop which lets you and preparations at Christmas. Well, a really nifty little feature has since been added which uses the Joy-Con HD Rumble to play festive tunes and we don't know whether we should be impressed or terrified. It appears to work in a similar way to 's little HD Rumble jingle, where each player's Joy-Con magically plays a tune when it's their turn. The notes can be heard thanks to very specific rumbles going on inside the controller (sound is produced when something vibrates, after all) and this has been used to a much larger degree in Santa Tracker. The feature has come to our attention thanks to , who has shared some clips of the songs in action on Twitter. It's incredibly clever stuff, and we love the idea in theory, but when Jingle Bells (first video) gets to the chorus things get a little angry sounding for our tastes. Give it a listen below. - Daan Koopman (@NintenDaan) Would you like to see the Joy-Con's HD Rumble be used for more neat little features like this? We can already imagine a 'guess the song' style party game where players can program in certain notes, and we're suddenly feeling much less excited about playing boring old Pictionary again this Christmas. [source ] Share: About Ryan can list the first 151 Pokémon all in order off by heart – a feat he calls his ‘party trick’ despite being such an introvert that he’d never be found anywhere near a party. He’d much rather just have a night in with Mario Kart and a pizza, and we can’t say we blame him. Comments ) j i n g l e BELLS That sounds like the music I hear in my fever dreams Jingle Bells (HD Rumble mix). Jingle Bells, Joy-Cons smells. jingle BELLS, batman smells robin laid an egg.. Also, if I dress as Santa playing this game, a sexy woman would probably expose herself to me for "the best Christmas ever". I'm assuming it feels better than it sounds in a hard surface. But still, it's more BS on the switch clogging up the eShop Jingle Hells, you mean. Sounds like a dot matrix printer, lol. Nightmare fuel. I want some Joy-Con Metal! Master Of Puppets ftw. And I thought Civ5 rendition of a popular Polish Christmas song made into a war theme sounded angrily festive. Mind if I finish your song? ...Batmobile has lost its wheels, and An attempt was made. Kirby Star Allies actually does the same trick, but it actually, does it correctly. - Not at all, it's a free country + Xmas, tis time to be jolly Imagine your parents buying you this as an early christmas gift and hearing this... they should do a final fantasy theme rumble santa christmas funny moments Fascinating. This should be a horror movie soundtrack. It's very creative. It's doesn't sound the best but I guess this is to be expected when making the notes out of vibrating plastic. Even though it's not good, I don't think its scary or creepy. Creative! ... I'd like to see this in an update to Diablo now. Add this to the list of why I don't like Christmas. So it's the HD rumble that produces the jingles in Super Mario Party? Fascinating. Also explains why I don't remember hearing about speakers in the Joy-Cons. Cool AND creepy!
Reminds me of all those videos of music being played on old harddrives, diskette readers, and dot matrix printers. That was the Nine Inch Nails version of jingle bells
But it's not first party... Shouldn't this be free? You can get apps like this on Google Play Store. Finaly putting the rumble to good use $1.99 seems high since Santa gives it to Google for free haha I love this... Might have to drop the $2 to wow my kids Terminator x Die Hard: Attack of the Santa Cyborgs. This feature already used in Kirby Star Allies, in "secret" gameboy level. Sounds pretty good, i'm finished level twice for listen another time. Sounds like a personal massager from hell... Leave A Comment Hold on there, you need to to post a comment...
