After announcing less-depressing-than-usual financial results, Nintendo revealed its first non-gaming product. Branded as a “quality of life” device, it’s designed to sit next to your bed while you sleep, monitoring breathing, movement and heart rate so you can visualise each night’s rest. How this unnamed gadget will be used in practice isn’t clear but it’s a radical departure for the company. Release schedules have gone a bit quiet while Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare (Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4, PC) steamrolls its way into hearts and minds, but there are other games out this week; such as obsession-inspiring Football Manager 2015 (PC); the console release of emotionally charged The Wolf Among Us (Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4), and Disney film tie-in, Planes: Fire & Rescue (Wii, Wii U, 3DS).
