Pac-man "joystick" doesn't work well
I like that Pac-man has been added but the “joystick” doesn't work well… the screen zooms in to the person too close so that forearm movement isn't detected well. If it could keep the whole body in the screen or have the selected arm be the center of the screen it could work better. I tried backing up and it still zooms in too far… I've tried standing sideways and that seemed to work better but then I have to look over my shoulder to see the game. My ask is improvement on the detection of the “joystick”.

Minecraft-Style Family Adventure Games
Hello Nex Team, I'm a parent from Japan and a former Kinect user. I have two children, ages 6 and 4. My kids love Minecraft and Pokémon. I would love to see family-friendly adventure games where children can explore, collect creatures, build, and stay physically active. I'd also love Disney-themed games and fitness experiences inspired by Kinect and Xbox Fitness. I'm very excited about Nex Playground coming to Japan. I believe many Japanese families and former Kinect fans are looking for experiences like this. Thank you!

Companion play option
I wanted to know if you guys would ever come out with a companion mode where it allows caregivers or older players to be able to assist those who were younger or disabled with moving their limbs to play the game? I currently have a 12 year-old with cerebral palsy who loves playing on the next playground, but we ran into issues at times when I am trying to assist her. She is nonverbal and non-mobile so in order for her to play she needs hands-on assistance. She can’t move her arms or legs at all without someone else helping her move them. This messes up the game a lot of the time with it jumping between myself and her instead of just seeing us as one player. Will there be any updates in the future to allow disabled individuals to be able to get assistance and be able to play the game more seamlessly?

Starri request
I would like to see an option to allow explicit lyrics in songs. Lately, more and more songs are being edited to the point where it’s just music playing with no lyrics for a good portion of the song. I understand having an option for people who prefer not to listen to explicit lyrics, but those who don’t mind them shouldn’t be penalized or have to listen to choppy songs.

List of offloaded games under System?
Hi there! Would there be a way to list offloaded games under System? I know the list might change somewhat often, but it might be helpful to be able to see which games are offloaded at any particular time. Possible scenario is someone is going to take their Playground on a trip but won’t have access to Wifi- will assume all games are still on there and didn’t realize a game offloaded but would have wanted it on for the trip. Not sure how complicated this is but just curious if it could happen.

15 Day workout customisation
Add a selection screen with all exercises available within NexGym and allow users to exclude for use in the system generated 15 Day workout. Have pre-set exclusions for common situations (e.g., pregnancy, knee injury) that users can further modify, see necessary. These could be grouped by focus area (e.g., upper body, core) or exercise type (e.g., Squats: basic squats, dumbbell squats, iso squats (with a max duration modifier), sumo squats, goblet squats).

Progressive 15 Day Workouts
At the end of the 15 days (and maybe at points before, e.g., at 5 and 10 days) ask the user how challenging they found the workout from not challenging, through moderately challenging, to very challenging. If the user scores it as not challenging, increase the difficulty (number of reps, difficulty of exercise, suggest increased weight, etc ). If the user scores are very challenging, do the opposite and make it less challenging. And if the score is moderately, then keep things the same.

Online Battle Royal Game
Think Fall Guys, maybe a moving style like Pip. Maybe a theme that would appeal to older audiences like Aeon Guard.

Starri broke my heart
My 7 year old and I used to love playing Starri together. Now we don’t. It’s so disappointing and honestly now just an anxiety inducing game to play. Please bring the old Starri back.

Old Starri is much better
Hello, my children absolutely hate the new Starri updated look. It is distracting and they find it really annoying. Is there a way to revert out game back to the old game setting?

An interactive I spy game! When you need a little break from the more active games. Maybe timed I spy and just for fun!

Kindergarten learning games
My 5 year old loves Nex playground, as do I, but I would love to see more games added that are learning games geared towards younger kids (letter and number recognition, reading, math, etc) as this is such a fun way to learn!

Footwork w/ boxing
There really needs to be a tutorial about how to use footwork and hips with the boxing. A simple tutorial about how to swing your arms isn’t going to help people keep their balance or swing properly. And it certainly makes it impossible to execute combinations effectively.

Game Idea Submission
🎮 GAME IDEA: CYBER FIGHTERS ⚡ Hey Next Gen! I love your games and wanted to share an idea for a new game called Cyber Fighters! The game takes place in the Cyberverse, where a villain named Code Disruptor is corrupting the world with an army of futuristic robots. Up to 5 players can team up to save the Cyberverse! 🥊 Motion Fighting: Raise your left arm to charge a plasma blast, then quickly bring it down to shoot! Players can also dodge, jump, do athletic moves, and unlock special attacks by defeating enemies. 🤖 Character Select: Players could choose different Cyber Fighters, starting with: Tek Time Gamma Code Cracker Cyber Laser Snapchat There could be lots of different futuristic robots, bosses, powers, and worlds to explore. The graphics would be high-tech and next-gen, with huge action battles and cool special effects. The main mission: ⚡ FIGHT. UNLOCK. TEAM UP. SAVE THE CYBERVERSE. ⚡ Thanks for making awesome games, Next Gen! I hope you like my idea! 🎮🔥
