Have you ever wanted to ride on a Wii-powered skateboard or relax in a Wii-powered rocking chair?  

Well, you might just get your chance.

The fine folks over at CVG have uncovered some strange Wii peripheral patents filed by the European Patent Office.

Some of the designs include, a Wiimote inside a teddy bear, an NES-styled zapper, a bicycle which houses a Wiimote in its pedals and a Wii rocking chair.

The coolest of all the filed applications was a pair of goggles that would fit a Wiimote inside. The goggles could have a wide variety of applications including head-tracking. Check out this example from Johnny Chung Lee and prepare to be wowed.

EPIC. WIN.

I'm pretty sure this is to cover the Wii Remote from the always popular patent trolling.

wow, this is an awesome thread. who comes up with these things!?

(of course, i understand the reasoning behind them, but it's still utterly hilarious)

On the bike and skateboeard the Wiimote could track how far you have travelled and could be used in Wii Fit 2?? I dont think so but its fun to speculate about.

Attaching a wii remote to a skateboard sounds dangerous...

Hilarious!! LOL

Hey I like the NES style lightgun, I want it badly, I love lightgun games and it would be cheaper then the old set ups they used to want you to buy. Sorry but the Wii gun shell isn't doing it for me, I might buy the Nyko gun cause it works really well with Ghost Squad if you calibrate it.

okay, question here... I thought the whole "sticking your Wii inside a doll", the patent is probablyalready filed by some adult sex-doll company. but we shall see.

"American Pie" probably holds the patent for Wii sticking inside any bakery. *shrugs*

Wii Snuggle confirmed?

DAMMIT! My TeWii Bear prototype was almost complete and it's all a waste it seems........
