Nerdcore music-making just got cooler, as demonstrated by DJ Shift. Using Wiimotes as Bluetooth controllers and typical DJ software, he was able to program macro hotkeys via GlovePie. This is the same application that has allowed other Wii-to-PC applications like the Half-Life 2 demo that made waves earlier this year. Want to try this? Steal all of his secrets and start getting all the chicks by reading www.djwiij.com
We feel responsible in also noting that "Flickstarting" only looks cool when it's pitch black and you can't see white boys doing the stiff-hip headbob. The video is also a cautionary tale -- do not attempt this with Salt n' Pepa. Despite the unfortunate choice of noise, it is effective. If look closely at the monitor you can see the reflection of Nintendo shareholders breakdancing on their foreheads.
All jokes aside, it is fascinating to see just how much people love the Wiimote and are jonesing to replace age-old control schemes with it. What do you think -- is this a fleeting trend or did Nintendo create a revolution after all? Is your little soul crying to get up off your seat and wail your arms whenever possible?

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Also, if Summa made this post, your comment (which I like and agree with) "is this a fleeting trend or did Nintendo create a revolution after all?"
Im pretty sure Summa would've said something like : "fuck nintendo".
Ok Im done.
Summa drinks are on me.

And yes, I know I suck at the Multiplayer, Snaileb. Thanks for not kicking me the second I accidentally PK'd someone with the Troika.
I did manage to clear Act 2 last night on Hardcore though, so the evening wasn't a total washout for me.
to hate...
to not love...
After all, where would the Weekly World News be without Batboy and Osama Bin Laden's adopted monkey baby?
We we're talking about that the second you did it. He asked us WTF happened. I thought it was funny.. but yeah
If you want to play co-op online tonight Im down, if you're not yet ready for online.
Also, batboy and Osama's baby is in Summa's basement. I read it on Joystink.com it must be true!
also, cocks.
It is a pretty nifty mod though. I love all of these wii hacks, truly. I'm strongly considering getting a bluetooth adapter and making some games for it myself. That'd probably be a few months down the line, though.
I fail to see how this 'shows the beginning of the end of the Wii because people don't want to use the wiimote for its original use'. That's retarded logic
...wow..what a dumb name... people are not going to know that DJ! means DJ Shift 1.. someone should email him telling him to rethink his name to simply DJ Shit
