WiiSticks [wii remote + phyiscs]
WiiSticks is my first attempt at using a Nintendo Wii remote as an input device for a physics application. It is a virtual version of a simplpe physics toy, where the player holds 2 sticks (grey), and uses them to flip and spin around a 3rd stick (blue).

Relly nice and smooth physics. Congratulations!

That is very very cool! How did you connect the Wii controllers to your computer?
The controllers use Bluetooth to connect to a PC.
On a side note, Walabar's work with the Wii-Motes has prompted me to add support for the device in a coming OIS release :-)

almost ready to release a demo. I will do a bit more testing and tweaking first though.... in the meantime here are some screenshots of the new version :)
new features
* allows using 1 remote + nunchuck OR 2 remotes, either.
* several different "sticks" to fling around... some rigid, some "floppy".
* adjustable gravity
* improved graphics :)
* entire program controlled by the wii remote

I will post there once the first version is released.

US$8.00 with free shipping!!! I ordered mine on a Sunday, and it arrived on Thursday. Works perfectly with the Wii remote.

BETA RELEASE
a beta version is up on my website for those with the equipment to run the program... I'd love any feedback I can get... the responsiveness of the controls can still be improved, but in low-gravity mode, it's actually quite playable!
