this is my first post but I've been reading the comics for a while. I don't know if anyone on here has posted this on here but i thought I'd give it a chance anyway. I was randomly on youtube and ran across these video's of this guy whose has done some pretty crazy stuff with the wiimote. Head tracking Vr display, having the wiimote track your fingers, and some other crazy stuff. check it out here. So maybe xbox's claim with eye control for the 720 isn't to far fetched...

    I hate to bump a thread like this but where exactly are these threads? This is the tech forum but I don't see any Wii hack topics.

    Actually the tech forum is a subforum of this. It's located at the top with the MMO subforum.

    The only wii thread I see is 'hooking wii to monitor'.

    And I checked the first 3 pages.

    I did too. I didn't see anything, either. I had to search for "hacks" since Wii is too short for the Search function, and all I found was this.

    I guess the number of topics might have been exaggerated, but it seems to garner a bit (3 pages) of attention.

    It was literally 5 seconds of searching, there was at least 3 threads in the tech forum or the G&T by itself at one point:

    Heres one specificly for multi touch surface disscussion
    http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=44574


    I belive this was the first major thread on it, its been maybe 15 days since a post:
    http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=44791&page=3

    Theres more, but frankly, when I have to do the work for you, theres not much motivation. Want to start a new thread on it? 15 days can be a death sentence for threads in my opinion, so fine but read whats been said and edit your op so its much fuller and actually sparks discussion.

    Incidentally VR Headtracking is exceptionally interesting, and what with Wii homebrew very much on the horizon I am looking forward to the possibilities.
