Wii 3D

Yet another cool Wii hack from Johnny Chung Lee (he of the waggling reflector fingers). This time he's putting the wiimote back by the telly and we're wearing the sensor bar on our head (or with cool Orbital-style LED glasses if you're handy with a soldering iron) in order to enjoy a clever 3D illusion.



I can see this becoming a cheap and effective hardware accessory that Nintendo (who aren't exactly shy about chucking out new hardware gimmicks) could use to really good effect in some FPS or on-rail shooters. I'd love to see a Rez-style game worked around this.

The best thing about this is I was able to duplicate the effect at home, and now I've got the wiimote talking to my laptop I'm going to have a go at his other hacks too.
