Get your bluetooth adapter ready!

I saw that, I'm not sure if it actually supports all the functions of the Wiimote... for now it might just support the buttons and stuff. But it'll improve over time for sure..

It is interesting though. Currently the X360 controllers are usable on PCs (MS announced a PC wireless reciever for the wireless ones recently), PS3 ones are visible but don't have fully working drivers yet I think, and Wii is the same... with controller ports, this has never been true before without adaptors. It's an interesting shift...

It's a shame that MS's controllers require a special adapter. They should have gone with bluetooth...

The wired one doesn't require an adaptor...

I know that ABF. I have a wired one hooked up to my PC. I was talking about the wireless ones.
