This much simpler game mode would allow the user to play Wii-style simplified game. When he feels tired of simple golf, he could switch to realistic play through menu. Anyway a main aim of the exhibit is to demonstrate 6-DOF tracking capability in real-time, which Wii could not perform.

Plenty of plug and play TV games flirted with motion control. I think this project is trying to take it to another dimension... lierally. What I find the most fascinating is the curve between fun vs. completely. The Wii is on one end of the spectrum while this is on another. @ Tony - True!

In some ways I feel like the Wii is just creating this need of replicating weird 90s arcade titles for some of these developers. Haven’t games like this existed long before the Wii?
