Hopeful Wiimote Wishing

November 17, 2006 12:06pm

As a former (and very rarely occasionally on going) skateboard rider, I spent many an afternoon watching skate videos like Pow-Wow (“yeah Adam”) or listening to Operation Ivy while flipping portable phones or my tv’s remote control with my hands, trying to emulate Howard Flips or Impossibles on rainy days when the real deal wasn’t an option.

I’m hoping that a Tony Hawk game comes out which will let me flip the Wii’s controller around to do tricks. 360 flips, hard flips, so many possibilities. And of course, if you suck at it, you’ll likely break your controller, so it’s more like the real thing!
