Forget the appropriateness of motion controls for varying genres, or the difficulty in modeling representative movement. Will it blend? The Wii Remote has become such a cultural phenomenon that it can now be used to market other products, like the Blendtec Total Blender.
Citing his disdain with his Uncle Floyd's un-wrist-strapped Wiimote (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/tag/Wiimote/) tossing, and being the host of a series of web videos called "Will It Blend," Blendtec's Tom Dickson tossed two Wiimotes into a Total Blender for science. As you would expect from pretty much any piece of electronics put inside a blender, the two remotes waggled themselves into a fine mist inside the pitcher.
Oh, sorry, we shouldn't have given away the ending.
