          Look, if you just want something that vibrates there are a lot of easier ways to achieve that.

            But this appears to have some sort of built in gps that knows where to vibrate precisely.

          Yes, and then it becomes toy story 12, the latest pixar adventure where andy has moved on from the old toys and now plays videogames.

            But when not playing games he still tries to “charge” the controller, right?
