🌐 PlayOS

Ability for each user to create a player profile and games to be tracked per user. This would allow various ability levels to progress at different speeds thru various games.

The title pretty well says it all. It’s a very common request in the FB group for people to see a list of all of the 1-player, 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, and 4+ player games. It would be awesome if the Home Screen prompted the user to specify the number of players and then presented all of the games that can be played with that number of players.

The current format for listing of games (various categories) makes it hard to find a specific game if you don’t know the category it may be listed in, or to really see all the games available. Instead, default to listing all games with an option to sort by style of game, player number, etc.

We have family and friends who have Nex, it would be so fun to have a safe, approved connection with these other systems to challenge them in games

I really appreciate how the camera can get a wide view of everyone and also follow faces. This would be especially great for kids like mine who struggle to stay still in front of an webcam lol If there was a way to connect it to zoom or other video calling service so grandparents or family can still use what they want for calls, but we could use the nex camera on our end so they can actually see the kids when they're trying to show things off, that would be really fun. Especially if filters or goofy things could added! Maybe someday even games that are multiplayer. I understand this might be challenging to implement, and security would be a big priority -- there should be a parent approval for any adding approved contacts and such -- but I would personally love to get multi use out of the Nex like this.

How hard would it be to connect with friends/community(by zip code?) for scoreboard purposes. I’d like the option to either be ranker against other Nex community members, local Nex members, or friends on the scoreboard instead of always competing against bots.

I'm not sure how easy this will be, but I'd like to see all games featured on the Nex to have consistent volume levels so that I'm not having to increase or decrease the volume on my TV whenever we change games.

The system is either way too sensitive to wanting to switch players or the opposite.. First main issue) I have many issues with this when the game is switching from player one to player 2. It always focuses on player one and never tries to “look” for another player when player 1’s turn is over. The second player has to step in front of player 1 almost every time. Second) the other issue is if someone is sitting on the couch behind the players playing, it will almost always look at the person sitting on the couch instead of the player standing in front of the TV. Some of the problem is that the player playing might step off screen or spin around which makes it lose its detection. This happens all the time for us though and can be very frustrating. Here’s some ideas to help (I hope)… 1) The system needs to reset its detection in between players and not look for either player while the players are switching then when it is the second players’ turn start the detection and whoever is in front should get priority. 2) The AI detection should not prioritize someone in the background. Maybe the camera can link for the clothing, height, depth/distance, play space, or face of the player playing and try to keep that in mind. 3) Raise the threshold for when it tries to look for a player when it loses detection. Maybe it needs to have a 3 second delay before it looks for someone else. 4) I know this has been said before, but what if the system had a Face ID type detection where someone has an account that’s linked to their face/body and then the camera won’t look for someone else when that person is playing. Sorry this is long but I want the best for this system. Sorry for formatting I’m on mobile.

We've noticed some games allow left hand control but others do not. Example, the arrow game, 2048, etc. It's hard for me son to play right handed. Thanks

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.)
