We're still hoping one day some modern day Geppetto can turn one of these Wii-shaped TV remote into a real Wiimote. Continue reading for a video of the NES Wiimote in action.

Um, how exactally do we know that this is authentic? He could just have someone off screen playing it, or even a recorded video that hes impersonating.
SHOW ME THE PROOF!!!!

Splinter, he screws up in the last few seconds of the video, and tries hitting B to jump instead of A (since they're labelled 1 and 2). If this was a fake, he wouldn't have screwed up like that. The controls were very tight too.

What kind of system is he playing on? It looks like a small, cheap knockoff of the Xbox to me. Then I noticed he has a Gamecube there, but I'm presuming just because the screen mounts on to it and possibly gets its power from it.

That video is crap. Like 3 fps.

It saddens me that someone would take apart such a collectible thing, and mod it only to play NES games.
:'( I believe this mod IS authentic, but it's completely pointless. -.-

they're angry at YOU!

@ Sol Knightt
I agree. This is the kind of mod I would do (and may do) to a real Wiimote, but I'd never destroy a collectible like this. I just ordered a TV Wiimote a few days ago too.
Now, one thing I do plan on doing is modding a virtual console controller to play SNES games. That baby looks comfortable!

Actually, I think it is possible to be more gay than that. Like, you know, 2 humans of the same gender having sex?

Why would you bother, isn't there gunna be backwards compatibility on the Wii?

The system he is playing on is the "retrocon" which is a famicom clone that WAS sold at Liksang untill you know what happened...

He f*ck's up in the last 2seconds, the pressing of the button and the jump of mario isn't synchronized.
