what kind of things do you think developers should be doin with the wiimote Kent? i pitched a flight sim for the wii to inXile when i worked there. Basically you use it like a joystick, just put it on your leg and you can go left or right, pull back or push forward like a real joystick. The wiimote with it's accelerometer can tell which direction is down always so it knows which way you have the stick oriented. I made up a proof of concept even and it worked well! They didn't think much of the idea though oddly :P In hindsight, since our ceo developed descent, i shoulda pitched it as a control scheme for descent for the wii (tee hee).
