Would it be theoretically possible to create a 'vibration module' for the Deck?

As mainly a console gamer over the years, I've become quite used to playing with a controller that has vibration. I feel that this is one thing the Deck is missing out on.

So I'm wondering if it's possible to somehow connect up a small vibration motor (externally) that can be connected to the Deck, and have it recognised as a controller?

Possibly more effort than it's worth but would be interesting to see if anyone has any ideas.

This may actually be the perfect solution! Internal vibration. Imagine playing Forza and feeling your insides jiggle as you accelerate through a corner. Possibly the closest thing to actually driving a car.

All the sim racers use them, only a casual would drive without the SportsPlugGTX

I've heard they're good for chess too

If you get your pawn to the other end you're allowed to put the plug on the board
