This would actually make me want to try out a tablet for osu!, even if I don't end up using it lots (because I end up liking the mouse better?), it'll be nice to have as a collectable even. (not a big fan of buying shirts hehe)

So yes, I would love to order one if you make them available!



Another suggestion that might help you sell them is to give a supporter tag for a month or two with the purchase maybe? You never know, it might sell more that way.. People like bonuses from stuff they buy ;)

I like this idea.

This. I would have if this was available when I bought a tablet to replace mouse for Osu! but now it's too late for me.

And now I'm used to all the advantages the wacom bamboo has to offer like sensitivity in photoshop. I don't think I could get used to something different.

I still think it's totally cool and would sell well.

from my perspective, majority of people wont fond of that for the cause of the pen with battery :lol: though a specific log of Osu! seem to be splendid :3

I have been in contact with a tablet manufacturer, and it would seem it may be possible to make osu!-branded tablet. It would be an 8x5" tablet with a custom osu! design, and I'd be aiming to sell it for the cheapest feasibly possible (currently looking to be about $35-40 + shipping). I have already tested one and the performance is on-par with cheaper wacom tablets I have used, with the only major difference being a battery operated pen. After a week of use I haven't seen this as a problem, both considering weight (single AAA battery) and battery life (4,000 hours continuous use). Spare nibs would also be included for the hardcore players.

The biggest issue is that in order to get them at such a cheap price, I will need to order in bulk. I am tentative to take up such an investment unless I know there are enough people that would be interested in buying one of these devices, so please use this thread to let me know. If possible, share it with others that you think would be interested, too!

Keep in mind this would likely be the cheapest tablet you can buy in many regions of the world, even after shipping. That is my aim, anyway.
YES! I would actually buy one of those! This is a great idea!

hmm i'm too late to vote an yes

I'm interested in this plan since my wacom tablet is pratically broken after years of use. and it's the high price that hinders me from buying a new one.

will keep an eye on how is this going

Hmm... To be completely, 100% honest, I'd need an opinion from a pro player who tried it out before I would consider going through the hassle of buying one (I would likely have to use a prepaid Visa card, which requires going through the "joys" of downtown to get ATM).

I'm thinking that the OWC physical prize is the tablets and when they are given out to the winners is when ppy will introduce them. Wishful thinking! I would be kind of sad though since I already spent most of my money on holiday shopping and wouldn't have much to spare till january.

Need beta testing from all range of players who use tablet and those who don't use. From Top tablet player to semi-pro player to beginner, from hovering and from touching to tapping. Most beginner wouldn't even know tablet exist if din see other players use or someone tells them.

Battery or no battery, need to know if it is much more easier to control and move for long hours and more comfy than normal tablet.

Btw, What is the length of lift-off detection for the pen and tablet before it can't detect ? and What is the battery for ?

Has any progress been made on this? Like custom text engraving/printing on the tablet, customizable lpi (if that's even possible), different pens etc?

without any thought!
For mainly 3 reasons:

1. For the heck of it
2. For supporting Osu!
3. For having a not-derping tablet :3

Since I only use my current Bamboo Splash for Osu!, if something were to happen to it, this would be a cheap replacement that gives the same performance. I would certainly do such a thing.

Personally I would say no since I got my Bamboo unless it breaks then yes!

If I was still using mouse then sure since it's made for osu! it would make the game more immersive like other games with special controllers. Probably most appealing to newer players who want to go tablet. Hope all goes well if it's produced.

As long as the quality is not at all (much?) less than Bamboo Pen, I'd definitely buy it.

It better the survive brutal use from osu!
Bamboo tablets can easily get scratchy and dull. Their pen isn't the best.

I already use an Intuos4 but if I didn't, I'd probably buy an Osu one if it included the ability to change screen mapping and also included spare tips (or more resilient tips like the ones with the soft bit on the end.. those never seem to wear down).

i would buy it if the pen's sensor was very very close to the pen's tip, unlike bamboo's pens where the sensor is like an inch up the pen

Because of how my stupid country works I think unless this is under 25 dollars it's gonna be more expensive than a Wacom.

Just wanted to point out Argentina is fucking weird.

Latest word about the osu! tablet by peppy! Spoiler boxed because img is to big and cbf to resize. Also keep in mind peppy mentioned that this "may" happen. He also mentioned that he will update the thread when things are actually in motion. ( not his exact word)

But can it be used for drawing? And what are those nibs are they talking about? Does the tip of the pen gradually wears out? I'm new to graphics tablets, I'm sorry

Yes, it would be able to be used for drawing.

I mean in the sense that "They might surprise us with the durability".

No - but if you use it roughly or put too much pressure on the nib, it will eventually wear down, as a rock does in a river.

If it were just for the purpose of playing OSU, I would consider it, but if it could do other things such as draw then I would very likely buy one.

Of course it could be used for drawing too.
I'd probably buy one of these if my current tablet suddenly broke or something.

Well The Microsoft Surface Pro is out and it's amazingly a solid device...
Price wise I'm a bit bent.
40$-100$ (shipping) is 1/5 of the Surface Tablet so by a very very very narrow margin I'm thinking yes.
I would pay 500-600$ for the surface but if it's limited to osu after shipping I'm not planning to spend more than 80-100$

If I can use the tablet on my metal table, then I'd buy it. Not sure if it's just specific tablets, or all tablets, but with my tablet (VisTablet PenPad), pen input acts really weird if I try to use the tablet sitting on-top of a painted metal table.

Not representative of final quality or design (the design on the top should be a much lighter gray), but here's is a sample unit that I received today:

Considered a long time ago buying a tablet (just for osu! since i am not good in art anyways :D ) and this one might be worth shipping to Germany.
Well, we'll see how's it going in the future.

Oct 08 13:57:30 <peppy> should be globally available
Oct 08 13:57:35 <peppy> aiming for $30 + shipping
Oct 08 13:57:52 <peppy> no promises, still figuring out the overheads to get it to happen
Oct 08 14:06:23 <peppy> it has a removable nib
Oct 08 14:06:30 <peppy> comes with a few replacements, and works fine without it installed
Oct 08 14:06:56 <peppy> pen is 1 AAA operated, but feels a nice weight to hold
Oct 08 14:07:01 <peppy> and battery is said to last several months
Oct 08 14:07:19 <peppy> not included (shipping batteries is dodgy in the current terrorist climate)

Oct 08 14:11:42 <Simmal> how much do you expect the shipping to germany to be peppy?
Oct 08 14:12:41 <peppy> Simmal: hopefully less than $15
Oct 08 14:12:55 <peppy> maybe $20 at most
Oct 08 14:13:05 <Simmal> alright, that sounds awesome, thanks!
Oct 08 14:13:09 <peppy> i want to get it out this year

Oct 08 14:13:36 <Arras> Will there be a limited amount and you're screwed if it's sold out?
Oct 08 14:13:52 <peppy> probably 1,000 to begin with
Oct 08 14:14:00 <peppy> but i will keep ordering more if it sells *that* well
Oct 08 14:14:06 <peppy> it will be online only
