Wii HACK - Wii on iPod

Categories: Funny, Video, Wii Console Hack.

Have fun with your iPod, play your Wii on it!
Video after the jump.

“Just playing some Wii… on my 60GB iPod. Basically in a nutshell I just rewired my dock with the lightbar from the Wii. Then running linux and a app that I installed on the iPod, enabled it for live video stream via the 30pin dock connector (ie. instead of video out I can have video in) Then with a few splicing of the composite video connectors and some electrical tape to convert it to the S-Video jack on the back of the dock. The audio was passed through to a reciever and not through the iPod.”

where’s the lightbar
why does the pointer move differently from the wiimote?
Ive heard of from friends that the cursor jitters something terrible on their 7″ car monitor (while the car is still) every time the wiimote rumbles.

This seems very much like a video.
Perhaps can i see the wicked wire mess you describe?

Hey JDUBZ,

I guess that is a possibility, I guess that would be the easiest way of making it look real.

this is complete bullshit. the lightbar doesnt even send anything back to the wii. data is sent only via bluetooth from the remote. and dont get me started about the video in for the ipod ..
a tip: when doing a fake, AT LEAST move your control in sync with the on screen pointer ..

this is definatly fake… and I’ll prove it

1. where is the sensor bar

2. why do I see no cord connecting the wii the the ipod dock

3. ipod’s can not stream video (even if they have rockbox or ipod linux or any other firmware)

4. the ipod does not have 30 pins in the usb connection there are ony four pins if ou look hard enough you’ll see only 4 golden wires which are the pins when ou look at a usb connecor or on the bottom of your ipod

and for any other ppl out there who still belive this is real then you know what… why don’t you try to convert composite viedo and audio into usb (chances are 1 in an infanite amount of numbers that you will succeed; how do I know , beacuse I actually know stuff when it comes to electronics)

*p.s. in addition to my comment above once and if you find a way to convert composite video/audio to us then you also have to figure out how to make the screen size the size of the ipod then not to mention a way to make or find a firmware for you ipod that can get that video/audio and then display it on the screen

Yeah It looks like hes following the video that was saved on his Ipod.

Nice Idea for the “Cool” factor but not real at all.
