Video: Playing Halo 2 (Xbox 360) with a Wiimote

Before you start rushing to put the stuff together, consider some of the hard-to-get stuff you need:

  • A working Xbox 360. Good luck on that one.
  • An XFPS PS2 to 360 adapter;
  • A microcontroller “with custom firmware” that emulates a PS2 controller;
  • and a PC with custom Wiimote driver.
