At the recent Hong Kong Electronics fair, a demo was shown for the PC platform that may also capture the interest of Nintendo Wii owners. On the said event, a peripheral was revealed that acts like Nintendo's Wiimote.

Note that the demo is just for that and there's still no word if this will be implemented or if it will be mass produced for public consumption. But just the same, the prospect of it being a reality is just as exciting.

The demo was for a ping pong game and the characters reacted to controller swings. According to spectators, the reaction time of the characters to the said controller was actually good and can give PC players a good variety in gaming experience.

That's about it for now and keep checking back here at QJ.NET in case we pick up some more details.
