Or it's a copy of GameTrak's motion sensing remote for PC (including gaming) which Eliot Myers started work on in the early 1990s.
Or it's a copy of Gyration's and Bridge Design's motion controller that they pitched and sold to Nintendo in around 2002.
And it's not far off those motion sensing controllers that fat American guy in shorts was using in that YouTube video (posted last year) to play a game very similar to Wii Sports Boxing in.....about 1999.

That looks nothing like a wiimote. The A button is much too small.

I've been using a wiimote with my computer for months now.
What idiot would waste their money on this?
Oh, right, the American public. Never mind...

It's a copy of Sega's prototype Dreamcast motion sensing wand from 1999:
