Leaning in a FPS just reached a whole other level. Also the thought of bullets or other objects flying at you would be intense.

When I say the video he did where he used the Wiimote as a lightsaber, I thought it was pretty cool. This video takes the cake though. If you look at his website he has a note for another video called 3D tracking coming out soon. I can't wait to see what he does. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~johnny/projects/wii/

That was freaking amazing...imagaine a new MEtroid game using this...

The kid that nobody likes strikes again.

I'd really appreciate it if you'd just leave these boards. You stupidity and fanboyism is amazing.

 When I saw the end part where he used a 2nd wiimote at first I too thought of using it in Metroid but the whole aspect of leaning out of the way makes me think an actual FPS perhaps even utilizing a cover system instead of Metroid's "First Person Adventure" style would suit it better.  I know plenty of ppl above mentioned bullets following you but traditional bullets move fast and are harder to visually track each identical bullet outside of a Max Payne slo-mo sequence.  Just imagine playing a game like Halo with a sci-fi gun like the Needler and seeing that pink spray close in on you while you try to duck behind a rock.

Nah leo-j is harmless. He makes me laugh most days.

Really awesome. Couldn't use it for "moving", but you could use it for minor head movements and camera tracking.

WiiFit could *almost* do this... parts of it anyway.

I want this in the next Wii Zelda game!

(next step is to use this with some form of VR goggles...?) 

There's an arcade game called Police 911 made by Konami that used a motion tracking system to allow the player to duck behind cover and dodge bullets in a rail shooter. This is the best video I've been able to find of it.

You can see the metal framework around the cabinet which houses the motion sensing apparatus. I have no idea what kind of technology it uses (ultrasonic?), but the game detects the player's height and lateral position and adjusts the camera angle accordingly.

It's my favourite rail shooter ever.

^OMG

That totally blew away my expectations. Nintendo definitely needs to snatch that up right now and get to work. The possibilities for Wii goggles +Wiimote + Wii board are almost limitless.  Just the thought of an FPS where the Wii mote controls aiming/major looking, the nunchuck movement, the Wii board fine movements like jumping and leaning, and those glasses fine looking would be enough for me to buy all of them. On the flip side, anyone want to bet which 3rd party (*cough* EA *cough*) butchers it the most?
