Waging a Wiimote war: missile launcher versus cat

Posted Jan 2, 2007 at 4:50AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: Wii Tags: Wiimote
Ó

In light of the Wiimote-controlled RC Car from last month, it was only a matter of time before someone would decide to control a toy missile launcher via Wii remote. From what we could assume, this missile launcher is connected via USB to the computer, and it's the computer which receives the control signals from the Wiimote. The controller is then used to manipulate the toy missile launcher by pressing the directional buttons and the trigger to fire.

Some people commenting on the video are doubting TheFuzzyAlchemist (the guy who posted the vid) about actually using the Wiimote to control the launcher. We, however, know that it is possible through GlovePIE - or at least in theory.

Anyhoo, observe: Missile Launcher + Cat = domestic war.

i have that same missel launcher, it has a small black remote for it. He has the remote for the launcher in his other hand. He is pretending that the wiimote is controlling it.

How in the hell could he be using the other hand for the other remote when 1.) He is holding the camera (shoddy camera work like that, mixed with the shaking of the camera can only mean he was holding the camera in one hand) and 2.) The slight bit of time lag and the forced finger (he was on his knees) can only imply that not only was this not fake, but that he needs a tripod, proof he has nothing in his other hand, and the cat within reasonable distance to fire at.

I haven't a very good camera hand, I'm sorry about that, but I don't really feel like re-recording it.
