Sorry, but this is closer to the six axis controller than it is to the Wiimote or the Microsoft PC controller from a few years ago. Those all had the similar tech. Wiimote goes far and beyond.

QFT.

That YouTube video is awesome.

I did not realize that Midway allowed you to film your barrier-smashing tech demos in your boxer shorts and a Hanes t-shirt.

Everything I thought I knew about Midway was wrong, because NOW I think I know why Midway hasn't been a successful company since I was in high school.

Yeah....why is he in his boxers?

Plus, the video doesn't even claim he came up with anything. He says at the end if you're interested to talk to some other dude at Midway.

I don't like the patent system, mostly for these reasons. The idea of motion controls isn't new. In fact, most ideas aren't new, its how you realise those ideas that matters.

if i was nintendo i would kick him down a couple thousy so he can get himself some new gear!
