Nintendo Wii controller
Nintendo's new Wii game console is being praised thanks to its innovative game controller with built in motion sensors. The Wii controller enables new kinds of gameplay in which the controller is like an extension of the body. The controller senses motion with a built in micromachined accelerometer!!

Cool!! Do you know how this will affect gameplay? I'm one of those ones that is always moving the control when I'm playing -- you know, turning it right when I want to go right.

I know the example I saw said that say you were playing a fishing game, you would actually move your arm like you were going to cast your line and jerk it back when you had a "bite"!!!

It would be kind of neat, I know I catch myself "steering" with my controller when I play my Nascar game!!

Don't know how much, but they will be the controllers for Nintendo's new Wii platform that is yet to be released.

Personally, and this is silly I know, I hate the name "Wii." Not only does it LOOK wierd, but it sounds wierd. I can't help but constantly think of (golfer) Michele Wie when I hear the controller's name.
