    So if you are going to mount WiiMotes onto collapsing buildings, would you put the IR sensor bar on the top or bottom floor of the adjacent building?

    $40 is nothing in scientific research. In comparison, a plastic box with two wires running through it costs over $100.

    This actually looks remotely (no pun intended) classy. If I had a Wii I would definitely get this. I just can't justify buying a Wii at this point. If I want to play one bad enough, I will go to my friends house for a game night. #nykochargebaseic

    Does it make motion sensors? Because I would totally buy it if it came with a baby shake game.

    (if Apple isn't going to allow a baby shake game, someone will step in to fill the niche)

    In reply to Seriously...Someone Is Really About to Release a PS3 Wiimote?
    I love how people say that the wii sucks, and yet the majority of the new updates for the 360 and ps3 are from the wii.

    @Intelext: The one from the 360 doesn't use a remote though, so it's not really something from the Wii. I think most people say the Wii sucks though because of the graphics, the rendering power, and the lack of games for serious gamers.

    @Nathan Obbards: "Serious gamers" is an oxymoron.

    "Pretentious gamers" is more accurate, IMHO.

    @HeartBurnKid: Agent of R.O.A.C.H.: I'm just using the terminology I hear it couched in typically. By serious gamers, they mean people who play games for hours on end. It seems that most Wii games aren't that type of gamer, but tend to be shovelware and timewasters.If you feel they are pretentious gamers, that is your right; however, I tend to see their point. The Wii has great potential that is vastly under-utilized.
