That's really interesting! I don't have a Wii myself (although I wouldn't mind having one) but that's really, really cool. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /><div></div>

I have a Wii and of course my first thought was "This is just so cool wonder if we can do this with EQ2!!"  I hope they pick up on this!I am not that technically inclined so I know I would not be able to figure it out on my own. GethaniDevianceUnrest<div></div>

On the podcast he recommends an N-32.  I searched his blog and googled it, but couldn't find what he was talking about.  What is this EQ2 players best friend?

[Cyanbane]

<div></div>Sorry it is an N52 (I said N32 by accident).<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Components-F8GFPC100-Nostromo-Speedpad/dp/B0000DC643/sr=8-1/qid=1166153453/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-6251568-4541745?ie=UTF8&s=electronics" target="_blank"><b>Belkin Nostromo Speedpad n52 </b></a><div></div>

All you have to do is hope the strap doesn't break, and if it does, you have to hope it doesn't go smashing into your lcd.

<P>I've been looking for ways to get my husband to play EQ2 more.  Now I've found it!  I had gotten him a Wii for Christmas and now that I've seen your movie clip I'm positive this is the answer I've been searching for.</P> <P>Wii controller + EQ2 = Priceless <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></P> <P>Thanks,</P>
