That is pretty cool, although I don’t like the Wii Controller, to me it is too uncomfortable.

rasz, thanks for the feedback. I am using the same firmware-only USB code as project in the link you provided.

Does one really need a arduino/protoshield? No. People can just splice connectors as well. Theres lots of places to save money. The expensive hardware I am using is for prototyping ease. You only need an Atmega168, crystal, some diodes, resistors and capacitors.

From mouser: Atmega8 = $3.66, atmega168 = $4.08, not much of a difference. If you try, you can get the code under 8k (its slighty over 8k atm) to put on a ATmega88 which is slightly cheaper.

he is using at least $50 in hardware for something ATMEGA8 did in the original http://www.raphnet.net/electronique/snes_nes_usb/

I suppose it’s interesting, but I don’t really think the wii controllers are very comfortable, or good looking.
