Wow, the Wii just gets cooler and cooler

i’m getting too excited right now and probably shouldn’t be posting until i’ve calmed myself a little.

a friend sent me an email w/ a youtube link for the following vid:

if you’ve seen the whole thing then you already know why i’m so excited:

there’s tons more growth within the market that Nintendo created for itself by releasing an interactive gaming system that takes natural human motion into account. we just saw an example of a hacker making a virtual reality interface for the wii. he and i are now officially begging\ for game developers to exploit this hack.

also, in the meantime, Nintendo release the offical version of the headsets. if networked gaming, via internet connections to the Xbox360 and PS3 or normal ol’ MMORPG is any indicaiton of how large a following can get, then we are good to go.

    Really incredible stuff man. The Wii is just revolutionizing the way we play games. I think this is just the beginning of an incredible “entertainment” machine. Go NTDOY! (Bought back in today by the way!)
