firstlight01's Journal: New Wii controller is pants, literally

According to Davey Winder writing at http://www.daniweb.com/blogs/entry1498.html the latest concept in Wii video game control could be pants, or boxers if you prefer. And let's not forget the bra either. It certainly brings a whole new meaning to gripping your joystick or twiddling with buttons to get excited during gameplay. As he says in the story "you will have to be really careful about who you invite over for a gaming session when that game is controlled by players physically touching each other in the underwear department. Even the invitation itself is probably best made to real close friends only, as you might feel uncomfortable asking strangers for a game of Pong in their panties." It appears that someone has designed a Wii controller that comes in two parts, one in a bra and the other in gents boxers. Mapping the game controls to the first device, a bra, was simple enough: "touching the left breast made the pong paddle go left and the right breast made the paddle go right." This has developed into two controllers, both with six sensors a piece. For the men it is the ladies bra, which they do not wear but rather stand behind their partner to control. For the ladies it is a pair of boxer shorts with strategically placed buttons. And before you ask, no I really don't fancy a game of Pong with you!
