The Wiimote and iPhone Mix Like Peanut Butter and Chocolate [Hacks]
Gizmodo — ... demo is nothing more than that—a taste of the Wiimote working on the iPhone. It'll be interesting to see if/how the project evolves from here. But imagine the potential of a game that used both the iPhone and Wiimote's accelerometers. Or heck, imagine playing a scaled down Wii Sports on your iPhone. Let's make this happen, modders and coders who are working for free, risking Nintendo's wrath and have about 1000x more coding talent than me. I insist. [Flickr via MAKE] ...

iPhone and Wii Remote hacked to work together
iPhone Buzz — I have seen Wii Remotes used to do some cool things. One geek hacked the remote to control a giant claw for picking up old cars, which was sweet. Then there is this guy who has hacked a Wii remote to connect to his iPhone via Bluetooth. There is no point to the hackage other than when you move the Wii Remote, the virtual Wii Remote on the iPhone screen moves too. All we really know other than what the video shows is that the portable Bluetooth stack is used to operate the hack. I guess it's neat in a sort of WTF is that for type of way. Geeks with too much time on their hands end up making weird mods that's for sure. [via Make] ...
