Nintendo Goes Wiimote Patent Crazy 0

Looks like Nintendo is covering pretty much all the bases as far as Wiimote add-ons go.

Recently unveiled is a series of patents encompassing some pretty strange objects that could be given the Wii treatment.

A skateboard, helmet, golf club, baseball bat, bicycle and - somewhat bizarrely - teddy bear are all included in the patented designs.
