comment Commentsprint Printemail EmailDeliciousDiggStumbleUponRedditFacebookSlashdot

This morning Asus showed off one of their newest gaming related products, the Eee Stick, which is intended to get more people into gaming. The Eee Stick will come in many different colors, and oh yeah, they look and act exactly like a Wiimote.

There’s no word yet on what crowds Asus hopes to get with their Eee Sticks, but it is clear that they’re looking to make their own stake in the casual gaming crowd.

Currently there’s no word on pricing or availability.

There needs to be games that take advantage of these remotes. They need to be designed to take advantage of these remotes I just don't see game makers out there coding their games to take full advantage of these when they are used to the mouse and keyboard and the Xbox360 controller.
