If you liked the idea of using the Wii’s Nunchuk for mobile gaming, but think that the idea is a bit too farfetched to be brought to fruition, then here’s a ray of hope for you. Zeetoo, the company behind the Zeemote, finally managed to get funds that will help them make the Nunchuk for mobiles a reality. More details in the full article!

Remember the Zeemote, the proposed Nunchuk-like peripheral designed for mobile gaming? For those who are still unacquainted with the strangely familiar device, the Zeemote is actually a smaller version of the Nunchuk that uses bluetooth connection navigate through the celphone’s user interface, or even play games.

Anyway, here’s a little hope for those expecting the gadget’s launch into the public market: Zeetoo, the company behind the Zeemote, finally managed to secure funds around US$ 6.9 million to be used for the production and development of the Zeemote as a consumer product. Helping out in the project are developers Fishlabs, Sega Mobile, and Reaxion.
