Wii Remotes
« on: December 07, 2006, 12:06:29 pm »
Seems Like the new Nintendo Wii remote control can be used as a mouse input device on PCs, there info on linux use here  http://www.wiili.org/Wiimote
From seeing clips on YouTube, looks like it functions like the GryoRemotes and mice.
Since these remotes are about £30 they couls be a very nice controller for the new UI2 .

The Wii is released in the Uk tomorow and i should be geting one on release day, all being well. So i'll have a play and see what can be done.

That does sound cool.  I wonder if they would give us a deal for the ones with the weak straps :)

Hi,

can you please give exact list which devices are supported/tested and work flawlessly ? What are your experiences with it (I guess they work with UI2) ?

Thanks in advance,

Rob.
