DS owner, Jaime, recently won a chance in an MTV contest to play the DS in zero gravity simulation. As Jaime attempted Elite Beat Agents and his fellow passengers played Star Fox Command, they were having so much trouble in freefall that they had to set their games to easy mode to even have a chance at doing well! Of course, floating around with no gravity leads to DS Lites getting knocked out of people’s hands, tossed and banged up all around the cabin – but all the DS Lites were working just perfectly afterwards!
I know NASA does all tons of experiments in space in order to eliminate the effects of gravity in order to do their research, which is then implemented in everyday technology here on earth. Maybe one day Nintendo will partner with NASA to make sure their systems are easy to use no matter where you are! After all, the flight instructor that took Jaime on his adventure apparently brings his DS with him all the time when he gets bored in flight!
