I thought this was really really cool, figured I would share it with you guys.

Chalk up another innovative hardware solution to the Wii. I doubt any games would be made that utilized head-tracking, though.

That is pure awesomeness.

It is cool, but nothing will use it that much to be honest with you.

Wow that looks amazing, the only drawback is the fact that most Wii Games are meant to be played with more than one player so the "Head Tracking" for the one person would totally mess with the game for the other, unless of course it is a single player game. It looks cool, maybe Nintendo will do something with it but i doubt it.
