Wii Hardware \ Idea for Full body movement :)

I was thinking about how to make Zelda a better game, it got me thinking, why not use 3 Wiimotes and a numchuck for full body movement. Think about it! 2 Wiimotes straped to your ankles, this would allow your leg movements to control Links movement (left, right, run, walk). Running on the spot and slashing up monsters would be a workout but heaps of fun. It would work well on other action/shooters and stuff like wario smooth moves. What do you all think.


They really have to get a wireless keybord for the Wii.

the thing is if wiimotes are strapped to your legs and you walk...youll walk right into the tv. but maybe a better use for the sheild, you could move it around, and your sword moves exactly where you swing it...that would be good!

In the end it equals us spending more money.

I think the way the controls function are fine now.
But that's a creative idea Trebla.

or an attachment with multiple probes attached to your limbs that way, you dont have to strap all them wiimotes.

they should get motion sensing shoes! that way you won't trip (like with the cord from the nunchuck) and it'll be a better work out + more fun!

i saw this thing and u could actually walk without moving. u had like a little group of square pads and everytime u stepped on one the one at the back moved to the front. but that isnt for intense stuff

Like mereshell said i just wish the sword would swing with the wiimote instead of just shaking it.

I had a similar idea not long ago, but i thought something more on the lines of the game knowing exactly where you were holding the controller in relation to your body. Say in zelda or a star wars game, if you moved the controller from the left to centre of your body, the game would interpret that and copy that exact movement. I thought maybe something along the lines of a small GPS type system which you would hook onto your belt or something and it would detect how far out the controller was and with tilt sensoring it would help know which way the controller is moving and how far etc etc.

HAHAHAHHAAH yeah i do have alot of time on my hands, as i didnt get on the preorder bandwagon for the wii. Does anyone think with the proper programming and the technology of the current wiimote, wether or not it would be possible to make a game with real time sync movements. ie in like sword fighting games;starwars?
