Walaber (http://walaber.com/index.php?action=shownews) has posted an update to his Wiisticks project
Heres whats new:
new version supports more bluetooth stacks, and allows turning the sticks side to side!
Heres the info:
WiiSticks is my first attempt at combining input from a Wii remote and physics simulation. In the game the user holds 2 wii remotes (or 1 remote with a nunchuck attachment), and flips and spins a rod back and forth between 2 sticks that they control directly with the remote. The input is very intuitive, even providing basic force feedback (the controller rumbles on contact with other objects).
A release version will be available soon. Requires a bluetooth adaptor for your windows PC, and at least 1 Wii remote + Nunchuck, or 2 Wii remotes.
FEATURES
intuitive controls feel "like the real thing"
fully playable with only the wii remote (no mouse or keyboard required)
expandable design means more sticks can be added easily
REQUIREMENTS
Windows XP
3D accelerated video card with current drivers for DirectX or OpenGL
Bluetooth adaptor / bluetooth capability
2 Wii remotes (alternatively 1 wii remote + nunchuck attachment)
