xbox 360 wii controller

Now get this my little gamer friends, we all know the Xbox 360 is the best console in the world for playing games (well this is what many people say) but we also know the controlling system of the Nintendo Wii is the best without a doubt. So what about combining the 2 together to enhance the best of both worlds.

Well this is what some clever sod has decided to do, the clever modder has achieved this by turning a Wii remote into an Xbox 360 controller by the aid of middleware help from the PS2 control scheme, this is a dream come true for all you 360 fans. The way it works is that the Xbox 360 is connected to the XFPS PS2 to 360 adapter which in return is connected to a big black box Microcontroller with custom firmware emulating a PS2 controller, then to make it all better is connected to a Samsung Q1 PC with custom Wii remote firmware and also connected via Bluetooth to the Wii remote control. Cool ah; catch all the details right here.

We have put a video trailer below for you to see in where you will see the Halo 2 game being played.

Can this be done for the PS3?

    This is so cool, The 360 graphics and the cool Nintendo Wii controller.

    I have both games systems and this is the best of both worlds.

  • Denis

    That is actualy a really decent control scheeme.

    Why’d he waste the A button to enable/disable the aiming? Why not just have it on full time (like MP3), and use the A button for something useful?

    that part is biased, lol! (i highly doubt 360 is the best for games, wii lots more games that are more fun >..

    Oh my god I want to make that happen for my 360. Please, God of scripting and massive hardware hacking make this happen.

    This is amazing. How much would Nintendo dominate if the Wii had the graphics of Xbox360… and how much would Microsoft dominate with the Wii’s control system? This looks like the best possible combination I can imagine. Bravo. 5 Stars.

    Your kiding me you think this is real. He obviously just clicked 1 or 2 before the picture so it looks like he has it playing halo. 1 STAR!
