There are several Moons in Odyssey which, in traditional Nintendo fashion, make full use of the new system hardware by vibrating the joycons with increasing intensity as you walk around the area until you feel the strongest vibration, which is where the Moon is located.

Is that so much different than what e.g. even older Xbox 360 / PS3 controllers could do? I remember games like Tomb Raider and several others using similar haptic feedback systems.
