not strictly gaming but I have been hunting around for general Wii hacks,basicaly I wanted to see if anyone had got linux running on the Wii so I could play divx etc through it.
Anyway I came across this and thought it was too kewl not to share

after a bit of messing around I got it running myself

can't wait to see what will happen when some game developer runs with this ball.

yeah, his 'minority report style' interface looks interesting, as does the whiteboard.

did you see the one where the projector automatically works out what angle its facing the wall and reproduces a perfect image? He's a clever boy.

That may well be the coolest thing I have EVER seen! However, it's only gonna work with one person at once...

Although something tells me that won't be a problem for the type of person who wants one ;)

He is the guy who developed Orthos?

Clever man all the same
