true josh.
however I am not going out just to buy a wiemote for one or 2 games
that use it.
I do have bluetooth but honestly havn't bothered using it even with
devices that run it.
its tied in with my wireless card and to have wireless on when not
needing it on the wlan is a bit risky just for the bluetooth which I don't use.
I have a force ffb stick here that I got back in the day when we were
supposed to be using it.
I didn't and its languishing in a dusty corner.
not that I could have anything else here anyway.
with the 2 storage drives, my laptop, mic, cds and a load of other
things here using space on the desk there is just no room for any
extra things like gaming devices.
I have a fouse which works for railracer here which was only 30 odd
bucks however thats all.
So other than the keyboard and mouse I don't really think I can fit
anymore on this here desk.
at any rate I am trying to get my life away from the gaming community.
ie get a job or something.
As you may imagine although I will still stay here and play games I
really don't want to buy more than is necessary to play games, its
not a fulltime thing.

3. VI Fit Project Brings Accessible Bowling, Tennis Games Similar to
Nintendo WII
The Nintendo Wii has allowed for the creation of a new breed of
video games which require players to use physical motion to compete.
But as anyone who has tried Wii Sports knows, sighted assistance is
generally required to play these games with much accuracy. The Vi
Fit project seeks to change this. Using the Wii Remote and a
computer with Bluetooth support, blind participants can play two
free games Vi Bowling and Vi Tennis, accessible versions based on
their Wii Sports counterparts. According to the VI Fit website,
"Lack of physical activity is a serious health concern for
individuals who are visually impaired as they have fewer
opportunities and incentives to engage in physical activities that
provide the amounts and kinds of stimulation sufficient to maintain
adequate fitness and to support a healthy standard of living." The
project, the brainchild of students at the University of Nevada at
Reno, plans on producing more games in the coming months. The titles
are free and can be downloaded now.
so if we can use wii controllers with our computers that sounds very
cool! maybe using nintendo wi controllers can be added to the bgt toolkit.
