Wiimote pWns Roomba

Already bored with playing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess on your new Wii? You might try using using the console's already legendary remote to control a household robot.

One person who did just that is a young man named Chris Hughes, who hacked the Roomba vacuum cleaner so that he could make the rugbot do his bidding. And he's posted the modified source code online so that you can do the same.

I love stuff like this, it can only help the Wii.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

This is brilliant. Why waste time hacking the system itself when you can instead hack every electronic device in your immediate perimeter to activate and work with the Wiimote.

Next up: EXCITE CARS where you control your OWN car with the Wiimote! BIG DAMN ACCIDENTS.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

"The Wii was never successfully hacked or modified. Just every other electronic device was modified to fit the needs of the Wii."

Just over a month after release and HL2 is playable with it...vacuums are being used....what's next, Wiimotes found to detonate PS3 systems?!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I don't see the point, there are many people who can't afford either one of those toys.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

That's interesting reasoning.

hey we have this $150,000 car here, but not a lot people can afford it so i guess we'll just not make any

I was speaking idiomatically.
