I’m not sure I buy the idea that a flex is easier to perform than a swipe, but I want flexible screens anyway, even if it doesn’t become an input modality. :)
It reminds me of a lot of the kind of thing Nintendo would come up with; at this point they seem to introduce dramatically unexpected hardware configurations every few years, and to be well aware that most are novelties that aren’t going to last. But they may have been the first to put a gyroscope and accelerometer in a consumer device, and that one has certainly stayed. And, of course, it’s not clear that what’s useful for games has much in common with what’s useful for practical purposes, so it’s really not the best comparison.
