Hacking the wiimote
How to get your wiimote working with your pc:
- DarwiinRemote (sourceforge) lets you use your wiimote with mac os x. There’s also WiinRemote for windows.
- Here are demo videos of how you can control google earth and world of warcraft using your wiimote.
- You can build your own sensorbar – i’m not sure if a diy-sensorbar works without a wii, though.
- Wiili.org seems like a good source for wii-hacking-stuff.
- WiiSaber – audio lightsaber simulator.
After watching that wiimote+wow video i don’t think these two match well – you just need too many buttons and shortcuts for wow. Using a wiimote with some fast-paced first- or third-person-shooter like GTA 3 seems a lot more feasible, you probably won’t be good, but at least it seems theoretically enjoyable.
