Option to use gestures OR remote

Some people love gesture control, but others really struggle with it. If every game could have the option to use either, that would be ideal. If that’s not feasible, then an indication — perhaps in the upper right corner — of which to use (hand or remote) would be helpful. (Some games currently do this, but not all.)

    I bought the Nex for my customers to use in my business and we’re not going to be able to use it until this becomes an option.

    I’ve found that gesture-based navigation can be challenging, especially with a small child moving around in the background. A great solution could be to have gesture-based navigation as a standard but allow the remote to act as an override. For example, pressing a button on the remote would immediately take control of the menu selection.

    Yes! My 5 and 3 year old (the 3 year old especially) struggles with changing bowling settings with his hand.

    On the flip would love to be able to use the remote for bowling settings for my kids 😮‍💨 it is impossible for them to change their settings. We usually end up having to move them out of the screen and do it ourselves

    100% agree. I’d like the option to use my hand to select for all games. Instead of having to keep grabbing remote for some games

    Agree. We try to keep the remote in a "safe place" but when it's needed constantly in the game, it's hard.. hand gestures to move to the next section or continue would be great. If needed, player 1 could be the main "remote" controller
