WiiSaber News - Because Lightsabers Are Cool
I'm not a big Star Wars fan, yet I do love playing with a lightsaber. There's just something cool about waving one around and making the accompanying noises to go with it. If you prefer your lightsaber swinging as up-to-date as possible, you'll probably already know about the upcoming game Star Wars: The Force Unleashed on the Nintendo Wii. What you may not know are some recently released tidbits of information about the actual WiiSaber.
In order to replicate the cool 'Force Push', you'll be able to push your Nunchuck forward whilst holding the trigger. For force powers, you're able to use motion controls and you're also able to swing your Wiimote around to attack with the lightsaber. Yes, you can indeed swing it around like Yoda in the privacy of your own home. The direction of the swings will have an effect on accuracy, but the motion won't be 1:1 - not that most people care, so long as it makes the awesome lightsaber sounds as you swish it around.

I have to be honest ... "The Force Unleashed" is the whole reason I recently invested in a Wii. I seriously can't wait for it to be released. ^__^
Oh, that's SWEET! When I first saw the Wiimote concept, a lightsaber was the first thing I thought of.
