Android - Request Add vibration support

[PiN WiZ]

I would really like to see vibration implemented into tables to where your phone or device vibrates when slingshots, bumpers and knockers are hit or activated. I think it'll add to the interaction with the tables and overall experience.

+1 Although this would probably affect performance and battery power as well... but it would definitely help bring the physical aspect that is somewhat lost through the touch screen.

Yeah I'd like that too please.
But would definately want it to be a selectable option.

Definitely something we can look into, but yes it would certainly chew up battery power. We need to start a wish list thread for features like these.

Sounds like a good idea.

I loved how the 360 controller vibrated when the genie shook your ball around on TOTAN.

Vibration is a must for all pinball sims/emulation. It allows you to experience some of the feedback you would actually feel if you had your hands on a real pinball machine.

Good news, we had someone approach us at the mobile world conference with a desire to use their force feedback engine. We will be meeting with them shortly so stay tuned for further updates on this!

Great news! I hope something materializes from this sooner rather than later.

Yes! Vibration is the must if you decide to make Earthshaker.

One thing that I like about playing TPA on a Tablet is that by turning the volume up to about 70 percent you can feel the vibration of the speaker through your fingers on the back of the Tablet, The heart beat on BoP is especially cool.Its not quite the same as the vibration that your talking about but still pretty good. Just got me wondering now if my Tablet has vibration support.
