DJing With Your Wiij Skillz
I really admire Nintendo, since you can get their Wiimotes to work with just about anything these days. DJ Shift 1 mapped out the Wiimote buttons to work with Traktor, some DJing software, and then filmed a video of him giving a demonstration with a Wiimote in each hand. It's kinda cool to watch for a little while, but I'm sure some of our musically-inclined readers will find it far more fascinating than I did.
Now, if I could just get that damn song out of my head.

Not really... I mean, I agree with the whose-it tying in with the what-now. I mean, that's just plain old cool. I just wish there were a way for him to do more with the motion sensing--all he's doing is cueing up the song. It'd be nifty if he could manipulate MP3's like the plates in Final Scratch.
This reeks of fake, way too many features at a stage where others are still struggling to implement most of the Wii control functions. I doubt he could actually move precisely enough to cue most of these funtions. If anything, duration on stops and whatnot is fixed, and all his waving around is just for show. My name is Berthold and I think the Wii is OK.
hot damn, that was sweet! glue some glowsticks to the wiimotes and you've got yourself a rave!
