Sure, you can use your Wiimote to play Wii games - yeah, that’s fun if you’re, like, eight years old. See, we adults are more interested in how the Wiimote can help us format Excel spreadsheets. That’s the future: motion-sensing Word documents!

In case you’ve obliterated Zelda, smashed Wii Sports and molested Raving Rabbids, you can make your Wiimote - well, kinda move your cursor around a little bit. Still, it’s neat to see how open the little guy is to trying all sorts of new things out. Anybody with a Bluetooth-enabled computer (that is, on Windows XP, Macintosh OS X, or Linux) can join in on the fun.

It can’t hurt your little buddy, so why not give it a try? After all, everything in life just has its volume turned down after you use Powerpoint with a Wiimote. Lord have mercy.
