Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



We know there's a lot of ideas out there for custom creations using the Wiimote and nunchuk, but this one might be one of the weirdest of all. How about a Nunchuk controller furry tail that you can wear and even make swish from side to side? 

Controlled by RFID "mood cards", you can use them to control which way the tail wags, or you can also use the Nunchuk to do so. So, uh, why would you want to wear a movable tail? Well, there's two options: either it's Halloween, and you're planning some sort or animal costume, or you're into this. It's not my thing, but you know , if it's yours, you can wag your tail with a Wii accessory. I'm sure Miyamoto would be thrilled to hear about that.

I saw this, and was almost immediately hit with a flood of implications. Especially the above link: if my limited knowledge is any guide, things are really going to hell in that department.

Or you want to play Super Mario Bros 3 and really get into the game. That tail totally reminds me of Raccoon Mario.

Furries are weird, but has anyone thought that might be a tanooki tail? Makes sense for a Nintendo product.

i just realised nintendo won't call a gun a gun but has no problem calling a nunchuk a nunchuk. both are weapons but that nintendo nunchuk could actually hurt someone if used as one. good call nintendo, hypocrisy still lives.

@Qraze

That isn't exactly a major problem, since you'd be surprised how many people don't know what a nunchuk is. (In fact, Microsoft Word doesn't recognize it.)

Also, if the Wii had a Gun, I'd have to shoot myself with it because I think I may be a Furry Fan.

Y'know I can't decide whether this is adorable, hilarious, or really weird. I'm gonna lean towards really weird, but...

... tee-hee. Moving tail.

One thing that totally kills the cute and/or funny illusion? That strip of RFID tech that sticks out of your shirt like you're wearing some kind of fucking box on your belt. Maybe wanna cover that with an actual costume to hide it.

Furries get such a bad rap. I never really minded them.

What are you doing being tolerate of others on the internet? That's not our way!
Seriously though, I could really care less if people want to dress up like animals and all that. So long as people aren't getting physically injured I don't see what the big flippin' deal is. (though I do tend to be scared to death of Catholics...)

I think it would make for a sweet Halloween costume, other than that though...

Also, what's up with this dude's hand motions?

This is the coolest thing I've ever seen. I need to figure out how to build me one of these.

@welkstar, because a robotic tail is serious business.
