Chip off the old PowerPC

[eyoungren]

So, what my son does from time to time…

He learned that from me.

Oh yeah…

Game controller is a Wiimote from our Wii. He learned to hook it up to his Mac via Bluetooth a long time ago.

What game is that?

What game is that?

Final Fantasy.

He has some emulator he uses.

So nice! I'll try to connect my PowerMac and my wimote too, it would be fun to play Nintendo classics with a Nintendo controller

All you need is a DVI to HDMI adapter and an audio cable.

As for connecting the controller, it's an app he got online I believe.

Playing Super Mario Brothers and other classics feels just awesome with this gamepad

Yeah, that setup is pretty cool, Erik.
But you also could have entitled, "The Apple Does Not Fall Far From The Tree"

@eyoungren , could you please ask your son which app does he use to connect the wiimote to the powerbook? I use Wiiji but it is not so comfortable, I have to try at least 9-10 times each time in order to have a connection between the two devices. I use a small bluetooth adapter connected via usb to my MDD

He says Wiiji or DarwiinRemote.

I had better luck with DarwiinRemote, it connects every time on the first try! Thanks a lot to you and your son
