The Wii remote won't be the only way gamers will be able to interact with Nintendo's new console as the games giant has vowed to make any sort of controller to suit any type of game.
"If the game requires a peripheral, then we'll supply a peripheral - it's all about the end user's experience and that's the top priority for us," Katsuya Eguchi, creator of Wii Sports, told Kikizo.
We've already seen evidence of a regular control pad and a lightgun but it seems Nintendo is hoping to extend the range of peripherals. Perhaps, after the success of games like Guitar Hero, Nintendo realises that gamers will spend on peripherals if they add an extra dimension to the gaming experience.
So soon we could see Wii swords, tennis racquets, golf clubs, batons and cooking utensils - the possibilities are endless.
Wii Light Sabre for me ;)
