With the exception of a few iPhone accelerometer controlled games (My favorite being this one ) the vast majority of cell phone games are make shift projects that serve merely as in between Dentist appointment entertainment.  The biggest contributor to this mediocreness is the lack of suitable control schemes on a phone to play the game with .

Until now that is …

We’ve all dabbled with Nintendo’s Wii and loved it’s intuitive controller, it’s just brilliant !
Technical Warning : Since the Wii’s controller talks to the console via a sans-fil standard bluetooth connection this implies, theoretically at least, that any device that can do bluetooth can communicate with the Wii’s controller

(Light Bulb Appears)

Yes you evil genius, that’s exactly what has been done! A bunch of bright lads managed to write a nifty little program allowing use of your beloved Wii-mote as a controller of your favorite cell phone game !

Granted i won’t be packing my Wii-mote while visiting the dentist (wait a tick.. isn’t such a bad idea?)  non the less,  cell phones are already starting to pack 3D acceleration hardware and openGL API as part of  their SDK and letting Murphy’s law do it’s thing , slap on some decent TV output ports and we might have mobile entertainment units of the future ! Muahahaha ..

In the meantime some tiny SSX3 on a Sony Ericsson P1i  will do :

Love it !
