Examples
Already the Magnavox Odyssey, first game console, provided a Mimetic Interface through the Shooting Gallery which allows players to aim a gun replica at bright areas on the display. Wii Sports is a game where the Mimetic Interface allows players to approximate playing various sports while the Just Dance series allow players to try and dance according to certain goals. Donkey Konga, the Guitar Hero series and the Rock Band series in contrast use various peripherals to let players "play" music by hitting the right buttons or areas of the peripherals. The SingStar series uses input from a microphone to judge how well players can match the tones that they should sing.
