Wii U/ 3DS like dual screen function.

Before you say it, this is NOT Scratch for the Wii U or 3ds, since that's impossible and rejected. What I mean instead is making it so you could code something like the wii u and the gamepad. So you can hook a device to a tv via Bluetooth or cables, and then code on multiple interfaces. So you could have a map and the game deplayed, for example. I think this would be a good feature to add, even if it might not be too realistic.

That's cool.

Beast102508

Thanks

COOL!

I don't want to be that guy, but isn't the wii u from several years ago? Anyway, this sounds like a cool feature.
I can see there are flaws however, like for one the wii u's are no longer selling, and two, scratch team at mit are non-profit, and three, Nintendo might sue Scratch without legal authorization using their hardware.

No, like you use Bluetooth to connect a laptop or something.

cool idea but I thought the Wii u was discontinued?

But I thought that the Wii U has no Bluetooth option?

A. It does not connect to the Wii U, it connects to the TV
B. It does, have you ever played Wii?

A. I wasn't sure if it did either way.
B. I didn't know it connects until I looked it up on Google. And yes, starting out with Nintendo, I had a Wii.

It would let you code 2 screens. Which would open several possibilities.

Oh. So what you're suggesting is to have a split screen option or block with code that can split your screen (project stage) like the Wii U does? That might be somewhat simple I guess.

Beast102508

Yes! Exactly! And then you can code both screens.

Beast102508

I just think this would be a good way to show how to code on multiple interfaces.

actually, the Wii U connects to the gamepad via LAN.

Considering that those posts were from July 7th (last year), it would require Bluetooth to be to connect on or connecting via gamepads/controllers, but either way, your statement is true.

Beast102508

Look, I did some rethinking, I think you could have an option for Bluetooth or split screens. It would probably be like

Spilt Screen [Horizontal ]

transfer ()

swap

Stuff like that. It lets you code on multiple interfaces. It would be really cool to add. IT IS NOT SCRATCH FOR WII U!!!

Beast102508

I guess its like 3ds too.
