[QUOTE="jesta, post: 66158, member: 195"] Thomas Foo put on his green tights and feathered hat, grabbed a real bow, attached a Wiimote to it, and made it all work together thanks to the ingenious use of some rubber bands and a switch. He named it the Virtual Archery Bow and, not happy with the hack, he created a full game for it. It's called Trajectory, and it looks pretty good: [IMG]http://gizmodo.com/assets/resources/2008/04/wiibow2.jpg[/IMG] As you can see, the whole thing is designed for long-distance range bow shooting simulation, although you can use it with any other game, like Zelda. The only bad thing: it doesn't seem to support acceleration for now, so releasing the rubberbands only triggers the fire button.
