Space, the final frontier. Also the one thing many Kinect owners don’t have in the requisite abundance, currently recommended at around 6-8 feet for optimum hand-waving and knee-bending support.<\/p>\n
So those of you living in shipping containers or whatever will be thrilled to know that Nyko is prepping to launch its clip-on Zoom device for Kinect, cutting its space requirements by a pretty significant 40%.<\/p>\n
The success of the Zoom at E3 was outstanding and we are incredibly excited to help expand the already thriving fanbase of Kinect gamers, allowing even more people to enjoy the thrills of being the controller,” says Chris Arbogast, director of marketing over at Nyko Technologies. “We are also proud to be working with all of our retail partners on our first ever simultaneous national launch for an accessory. Come August 23rd you will be able to find the Zoom on store shelves everywhere.”<\/p>\n
No word yet whether or not we’ll see this launching locally, but it should be available through Amazon.com.<\/p>\n
