Default Very cool Wii Remote tricks.
Is this the same guy that demonstrated a multi touch screen a while back? Perhaps star wars 3d chess isn't too far away with these tricks.

The CP effect?

Hopefully the server comes back up soon. I assume this got posted to Digg or Slashdot.

Thats pretty cool. The head tracking thing was really niffty. It doesn't look to hard to make a Wii attatchment and a FPS with that would really be different.

I dont think that is the same guy as the whiteboard guy.

Both are Asian, but that is where the similarity ends

That head tracking thing seriously just blew my mind. Get that into a game ASAP!

Yeah it wasn't so much the fact they were both asian. I just thought they spoke in a similar style, and this guys demonstrates some of the same hand gestures as the other one. I suppose those would be fairly standard demonstrations for a multitouch screen.

Pssh no need to cover up. It's okay. Everyone mixes up Asians! Sometimes I'll meet another Asian and momentarily think I'm looking into a mirror :P

That head tracking thing would be incredible if implemented in a game. Imagine an FPS with this, using a Wiimote gun attachment...

I would never leave the house.
