the tactile feel of buttons is necessary, this won’t replace that.
Patents rarely turn into real products, they just do this before someone else can steal their idea
Misleading title. A patent does not mean they’re working on anything. Many of these tech companies, including Sony, patent dozens and even hundreds of ideas every year that amount to nothing.

To be honest, having each button having a small screen to change the button icon when remapping it would be way better.
Not.
And this is why fast action/button mashing games on touchscreens (like phones and tablets) tend to really suck.
