Nintendo’s New Super Mario rummy royal Bros. Wii has a thing called “Super Guide”. Helps you out when you’re stuck. Nintendo will almost definitely be using the technology again, but trademark filings reveal they may not be the only ones.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); https://kotaku.com/new-super-mario-bros-wii-super-guide-in-action-5404444 Microsoft filed a patent in 2008 for a similar system for the Xbox 360, only instead of consulting the game itself for help, it would use Xbox Live to connect to a database and ask other users for tips.
