Video games for the disabled? This is taking that blue ocean idea to a whole new level.

Good to see folks going beyond the intended use of the Wiimote. That thing was built to be tinkered with.

It's always nice to hear ways that can improve the quality of life for sufferers of cerebral palsy and other serious disorders. Just living day today isn't really enough and finding outlets to help them express themselves is in my opinion just as important as finding ways to extend their lifespans. Though obviously not as important as finding a cure.

Don't worry Mecha, they will once it's used to create a lewd or violent image. I imagine the headline will be along the lines of "NINTENDO FORCES ITS EVIL ON THE DISABLED".

Thats... pretty amazing for Nintendo to show attention to the handicapped. This is very cool, and I hate the Wii. We gamers tend to take a lot of things for granted. I find this to be pretty moving actually. If anyone has ever had physically challenged or disabled family or friends, I'm sure they would agree.

Savage,that is harsh,not everyone can experiance things in the same way,its giving disabled people a chance to enjoy painting or w/e

@savagesaladin - I've seen some amazing pieces of art from disabled people, some far greater than what many fully abled (and some professional) artists can do. You are truly simply an idiot.

I've seen works of art from a blind person who uses brail on canvas and paints over it with his fingers and knows the colours by texture and taste, he does amazing pop art style paintings and even some fine art paintings (which take him a considerable amount of more time).

I have also seen art from people who paint with there feet holding the brush and someone with no limbs that paints with there mouth holding the brush and they can paint just as good as any other good artist.

Just a few weeks ago I saw an item on someone who paints with only there tounge and no brushes and it looks like classical fine art.

None of the above artists I would of known had a disability if it was not for specificaly being told.


If this can help people as less dedicated as the above but who just want to create art for the fun of it than whats the problem with that? I am sure many will enjoy it and may even persue a career out of it... AND WHY NOT!

That's really neat. A family friend of ours has muscle degenerative disease and she used to be a really good artist, this would be great for her (she can barely move her arms and hands now, it sucks).

Thanks for the news story mate

awesome.

I always knew video games have good uses 2
