The Wii's definitely not alone now in the motion-sensing crowd, now that the Asus is going to include a familiar-looking peripheral to its Eee line of products. At least, that's what the latest find in the Federal Communications Commission says in the FCC exhibits list, which is a pair of Nunchuck-looking peripherals dubbed as the "Eee Stick." We've had both Sony and Microsoft considering creating a motion-sensing controller for their own consoles; what does the Eee Stick offer for the Asus Eee? The report doesn't specify how it's actually going to be used in conjunction with the ultraportable laptop, but we now know that the package will include two controllers. One of them has an analog stick and another has a D-pad. It will also include the necessary CD software to get it running, a USB dongle - and yes, even wrist straps. We're actually pleased to see the diminutive, functional Eees get their own line of accessories, but will using a pair of motion-sensing controllers be actually useful for an ultraportable laptop aside from, say, using them for work presentations? Let's see what kind of punch the Eee Sticks pack when they finally get to see the light of day. |
