USB Finger Skateboard Finally Reach the Big Time

September 17th, 2008

Motion control is the rage right now for video games. We have the Nintendo Wii that uses motion controls for everything and you can get motion control for the PC with the Stix controllers. If motion control for games is something you really like, Actiga has announced a new line of Mini-Motion controllers that will be available in several different game categories.

USB controllers will be available for both Mac and PC systems in versions that look like realistic skateboards, RC Cars, baseball, and a futuristic racing vehicle. Each of the controllers will connect via USB and will sell for $19.99. It's not clear if the controller has games built-in like the plug-and-play devices for TV or if they are simply controllers to be used with other PC games already on the market.
