I don't have anything against MX's view regarding the wii infact I agree with alot of it. He's definitely NOT joking in that post so I think t0mby is misunderstanding the situation.
Im not, I mean, I saw what he said, know that hes trying to troll, I just wouldnt bite. I see someone doing a 'Rocco' so see it as joking. [/End Debate]

Ok, so this wiimote emulation thing. WIth the pointer being fixed up, I can see a lot of ppl becoming more interested. Actually, It would be pretty cool to see someone rip the wiimote apart and attach it to a gun of some smort, air rifle, Namco TC gun or something and play a fps game witht that. Infact, if you had the smarts I could imagine it being pretty freakin' cool. A couple of buttons on the grip of the gun for change weapon next.previous. RUn and jump on that little whatchamacallit that the wiimote plugs into. Awesome. perhaps put one of those laser pointers on the top of the pistol so you can feel like Stallone in Cobra. :D)

Hahaha, it's like Days of Our fucking Lives.

SJ, imagine reading this thread from the perspective of someone that's interested in the thread topic. You've filled it up with shit again, as usual. This is why I requested an ignore feature a while back, so I could filter the shit you (and a few others) dribble into cyberspace and go back to the days of threads being a straight-forward read about something rather than being peppered (or more often swamped) with stupid bullshit. You spend more time talking about threads than contributing to them. I can enjoy the politics at this place as much as the next guy, I'm just asking for one thread.

I'd love to see Wii emulation on PC/Mac, but I'm much more excited about the homebrew scene surrounding the controller. I've seen a few different concerts and demonstrations that used motion sensors to control musical parameters, there's a lot going on in that scene. That drum video's a good start, but there's plenty of non-percussive ways to use it as an instrument too.

Yep cos I definitely started to fill this thread with shit.

Oh wait a sec, that was you and Seraph.

Maybe if you just let people discuss stuff related to the topic at hand (Wiimote working on PC/Mac as it relates to homebrew and emulation and anything else) we'd still be discussing the topic at hand.

Im agreeing with Gamm0r here - if people want this thread cleaned up of all OT discussion then ask myself of pilon. Same goes for all threads anyway.

So, my phone can see the Wiimote, but can't pair with it because it asks for a passcode. Anybody got any idea as to how to bypass this?
