The 2024 CES saw the GameShark brand leap into the future with its rebirth as AI Shark and the introduction of an AI-powered gaming controller.
The company, known for its cheating devices for Nintendo 64 and PlayStation in the 1990s , promises a personalized gaming experience by integrating artificial intelligence into gaming hardware.
AI Shark’s recent popularity stems from a notable press release regarding an alleged Nintendo Switch 2 launch that remains a mystery.
The company is focusing on its upcoming series of AI-supported gaming accessories, and the most notable among these products is the new game controller.
The game controller is equipped with sensors that monitor the player’s grip strength and button press timing, and the artificial intelligence dynamically adjusts button sensitivity and response times.
AI Shark claims that this technology not only adapts to individual playing styles but also suggests configuration changes to improve gameplay.
While the first introduction of GameShark coincided with a period when online games were not yet widespread, games such as Fortnite and Call of Duty now dominate multiplayer platforms.
AI Shark’s AI controller has the potential to provide its users with a competitive advantage.
Despite AI Shark’s ambitious promises, the tech community is skeptical as past AI initiatives have failed to deliver on their grand promises.
Still, there is general curiosity about how these AI-powered gaming devices will evolve and be managed by game developers in the future.
