NES Controller Used to Play Emulator on HTC EVO 4G By Way of Magic

Many were dismayed to learn that they couldn’t use their Wii remotes with HTC’s Sense-enabled devices due to incompatibility of some sort. One guy – named sk3tch – sought out another solution, however, and came up with what you’ll see in the video below: an original NES controller being used to control one of the compatible emulators on the market.

Sk3tch achieved this by taking a BlueSMiRF Bluetooth module, an Arduino, and the NES controller and throwing it into a basket. Upon closing the basket, he took his magic staff and out came the above result. Alright, that’s probably not how he actually did it, but they didn’t give any details beyond that. It might not be the prettiest piece of hardware to lug around, but if you game seriously on your non-physical-QWERTY Android phone and can’t use a Wii remote to facilitate that, then it might be worth it.
