The Wii Fit massager

David Allen — Tue, 20 Jan 2009 19:00:50 +0000

It is amazing how many things have come out for the Nintendo Wii and this one is no exception, after spending all of those hours on the Wii Fit trying to shed those pounds gained over the festive season, then maybe you may need a massage afterwards.

This is just a silicone cover that fits on top of the Wii Balance Board, where at this point you just sit back and relax, while your feet are massaged and pressed back to full fitness. This cover can also be left on the Wii Balance Board where it will give the user more grip when exercising.

Priced at $9.99

Wii controllers made from hemp

David Allen — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 19:00:58 +0000

This is funny because it is real, this is the eco friendly version of the Nintendo Wii’s controllers, what funny about them, well they look funny for one and the fact that they actually work is another.

In fact, these are not actually made from hemp, they are the original controllers simply covered with hemp to make them look natural, and they do look like the sort of thing you would think up if you were lost on a desert island. Along with the hemp TV and monkey butlers too.

Here’s a really cool interactive multi-touch LED floor. I wonder if they can turn this into an interactive game sorta like Nintendo Wii.

Sensacell’s latest contraption still manages to stand out by bringing back memories of when mouse trails really were the coolest thing about an operating system. Flashbacks aside, the installation — which is currently at the entrance to the Comunitat Valenciana in Spain — possesses over 1,000 interactive modules, each of which include capacitive sensors and a LED lighting system. The integrated tech enables it to recognize when someone is walking over it and consequently light up as if to leave an eye-catching LED trail of their path.

Chinese Nintendo Wii Clone – Rumdes V-Sports Game Console!

max — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 00:25:46 +0000

As bad as it sounds, the new Chinese Nintendo Wii dubbed, “Rumdes V-Sports Game Console“, may pick up in sales real soon as it’s 1/3 cost of a Wii unit.

My thoughts on the Chinese Wii?

Well, it looks pretty good enough. My only concern is that everything is copies/copied for people in China. I mean, will they ever get the real stuff???

Besides that, this game console looks pretty cheesy but fun. I want to get this so I can play some Wii-like games without paying for one.

Wii Hack – Wii Nunchuck and Arduino controls 3D Studio Max!

max — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 23:06:32 +0000

Here’s a cool Nintendo Wii hack that controls 3D Studio Max with a Nintendo Wii Nunchuck and Arduino as controller.

A good way to control objects in 3DS is to use the track view to assign different type of controllers to the various properties of the object you want to control. For instance, if you want to have small vibrations on the tip of a bird’s wing, you can use a Noise Controller. For this setup, I used the Motion Capture controller.

Shot Online is a Free 3-D Online Golf Game!

max — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 18:41:40 +0000

Shot Online, a 3-D online golf gam, has been chosen as an official game of GNGWC 2008.

If you cannot afford to get Tiger Woods for your XBOX360, Nintendo Wii, or Playstation PS3, you might just want to check this game out by downloading here for free. (The game is available for many different languages too but this one’s for English I think.)

I might try it out later this afternoon and see how well I score.

Gamers will feel like they are playing a real golf game on the field with Shot Online, as it has been developed as a full 3D game. Jaesun KIM, a director of OnNet said “our goal when developing the Shot Online was keeping the game within the basic rules of golf, and we are still working to achieve this goal”, showing the intention for Shot Online as a realistic golf game.

Asus Eee Sticks like Wii Nunchucks?

max — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 12:14:10 +0000

Looks like Asus Eec Sticks will be available for PC games.

My only concern is that they might be violating some copyright or patents of Nintendo…let’s wait till they sue. In the meanwhile, grab one of these as quickly as you can.

These Eec nunchuks will definitely go well with the new Eec Linux boxes.

Nintendo Wii-like wireless gaming is coming to PCs, with Asus launching the Eee Stick, a package including two controllers that use motion sensors so people can bowl, slash swords and play other games on a PC.

The Eee Stick controllers are designed for PC gamers, not game console users, and will initially be bundled with Asus’ Eee PC low-cost laptops and the company’s new desktop Eee Box.

GOMY DIY – How to Make a Nintendo Wii Mario Kart Training Wheel!

We decided to call DIYs like this GOMY DIYs. (Got too much time On My Hands DIY)

Neverthless, great idea, well executed in just couple pictures.

The Wii Wheel was supposed to make racing easy enough for anyone to jump right into a session of Mario Kart Wii with no prior experience with either traditional game controllers or the Wii Remote. When used properly, it works as expected. The trouble is that it’s not always used properly. Watching your parents try to get through Wario’s Gold Mine, you’ll notice that they’re sometimes holding the Wheel the wrong way, and it’s making them drive off the track into chasms of eternity. This observation led me to examine how Mario Kart Wii’s steering works and come up with a solution for keeping n00bs on track.

Nintendo Wii HACK – Wiimote to MIDI!

Check out this cool wii hack that allows you to use wii controller as a Midi controller!

This is very similar to the Wii guitar but you could probably do more with midi.

Thanks crustea for the tip!

In addition to the traditional buttons, force feedback and the integrated mini-speaker, the true innovation is the presence of a gravity and acceleration sensor (the ADXL330, used in the army or automobile safety, for airbags systems) inside the Wiimote which collects the movements and acceleration of the Wiimote on each of the 3 axis, X, Y et Z.

The good news is that rather than using a proprietary protocol to transmit the infos from the Wiimote to the Wii, and then lock its hardware to keep an exclusive use of it, Nintendo has made the excellent decision (probably by commercial will) to use the Bluetooth protocol, standard of communication on PC and Mac for several years. This means that you can connect your Wiimote to your computer, and program it rather simply for any use you want.

Check out this Wii hack, someone got a Nintendo Wii to play on iPod!

Just playing some Wii… on my 60GB iPod. Basically in a nutshell I just rewired my dock with the lightbar from the Wii. Then running linux and a app that I installed on the iPod, enabled it for live video stream via the 30pin dock connector (ie. instead of video out I can have video in) Then with a few splicing of the composite video connectors and some electrical tape to convert it to the S-Video jack on the back of the dock. The audio was passed through to a reciever and not through the iPod.

Yes, someone evidently is controlling their entire house with a wii controller. Nice!

The true mastermind here is the WACI NX control server that sets everything up, and the entire Wii interface can be emulated with a Nokia 770, as shown. The amount of convergence, and the merit of using the Wiimote as a remote controller, is very clever

Wii HACK – Nintendo Wii combo Component/Composite Cable

max — Fri, 15 Dec 2006 22:09:48 +0000

Nice Nintendo Wii hack for people who need this hack…bookmark it!

The Nintendo Wii ships with a composite video cable that is capable of 480i resolution. Currently first party component cables, which allow for 480p resolution, are available through retailers and directly from Nintendo. However, when attaching the component cables, one loses the ability to output composite video. Why is this an issue? Well, it may be that you take your Wii over to friends houses frequently and would like to only have to take a single cable. Or, you may be like me, and use an LCD computer monitor for your Wii’s display. My monitor has composite but no component in. To support high definition signals, I use a small transcoder box, the Mayflash YPbPr to RGB transcoder, that only supports progressive scan modes. However, many older games, such as GameCube games, and even some of the new Wii games, like Rayman Raving Rabbids, don’t support progressive scan. In these cases I end up with a black screen and need to switch cables to play the game. What a pain.

Nintendo Wii wrist strap review by CNN

max — Fri, 15 Dec 2006 21:14:30 +0000

[gv data="yddMD5_X3gY"][/gv]

Nintendo Wii strap has been reinforced but here’s an interesting overview video by CNN for
those of you who need a review on the Nintendo wii wrist strap.

The good boys over at Engadget recently reported on a slight change Nintendo has apparently made to the Wiimote. In response the the numerous reports of Wiimote related property damage, the strap has apparently been thickened and reinforced. This comes about a week after Nintendo sent out a now infamous e-mail warning Wii users not to get too rowdy with their Wiimotes. For the extra paranoid, Nintendo has also released a non slip glove (a la the famous N64 glove Nintendo released to combat complaints of blisters forming on hands as a result of the joystick).

More wii hacking…playing a airplane game using wii! Glovepie is really becoming the s&*# !!!

I thought it would be cool to be able to use the wii remote to control goggles so I knocked together a really simple glovepie script to do it. It replicates the pitch and roll of the remote to control the plane, + and – control speed and B fires. Please excuse the crappy video filmed on a mobile phone…

I suggest using LiquidIce’s HOWTO: Use the Wii-Mote In Windows as your Mouse to get an idea of how the whole bluetooth + wii remote + glovepie things work.

Cool nice little hack for google earth!

If air drumming or imaginary light sabers aren’t your thing, then perhaps the familiar territory of Google Earth will be enough to get you to pull your Wiimote away from Zelda long enough to run a few scripts on your PC. There’s nothing too complicated going on here, with just the requisite GlovePIE software (the Wiimote’s new best friend) and the Google Earth script written by the star of today’s video, J. Coulston, needed to take the world in your hands. Once you’ve got that up and running, you’ll be able to impress your friends and navigate the globe with the flip of your wrist. Just don’t get too excited when you spot your neighborhood. You know what can happen.
