Post by evza134 »

Has anyone attempted to put there wii mote into one of those lightsaberes you can buy at a toy store. I think it would be cool when/if they release some star wars games, Because the "blade" would change the way you would attack, Making impossible moves, Well... Impossible. (Ive heard of people in zelda sticking the sword into their heads.)

problem: The accelerometers in the wiimote wouldn't be able to see the IR in the sensor bar.

That sounds cool. There's a program for computers that makes lightsaber noises when you swing the Wiimote around, a case mod like that would go perfectly with it.

Klefmung: The accelerometers will work fine inside a case, they're inside the Wiimote and don't look out. The IR sensor on the hand triangulates the IR LEDs in the Sensorbar for more precise on-screen aiming, but you could probably cut a hole into the end of the plastic cone of a toy lightsaber and get at least minimal functionality out of it.
