WeeP5 makes other Wiimote gun mods cry home to their mamas

If your Wiimote-gun hybrid lacks a little bit of that "I would shut down an airport having this in my carry-on luggage" panache, we suggest you check out WeeP5, a toy MP5 chock-full of motion control. To be honest, we're most enamored by the setup of the above picture, as the modded armament rests lovingly over the heads of a young couple, against a picture of men in togas, and just under a VHS copy of The Lost World in German -- it's just so beautiful. In case you're wondering: B button is the trigger, A button is under the foregrip, 1 and 2 are on opposite sides near the front, the D-pad and Wii remote are jutting out of the left side, and the +, -, and home buttons are on the top just above the ammo clip. Hit up the read link for full DIY instructions.

@SHINIGAMI

i actually thought about forcefeedback but there are a few points which bother me:
first the power; the batteries would die really soon
second theres not a lot of space in the body
third what should i use to "make" the forcefeedback feeling, a simple motor with electronic is lame
fourth point is that for a good forecefeedback feeling it needs to be synchron with the game (means if you reload the gun in the game and push the trigger it should just give you a "click" feeling)
and the last one is: i'm going to pack an atmel witch display in there in the next project so you can designate the function of each button and have turbefire in choosable times *g*

[gerbick Posted Dec 27th 2008 9:33PM]

Looks great. But I can't be the only person sorta worried that the barrel of the gun shadow landing on the woman's face isn't some type of foreshadowing...

At first look at the pic, I couldn't help but notice the vhs movie "vergessene welt"...sounded like a movie/porn spinoff set in Jurassic Park...haha...Tyranosaurus Rex indeed...helps to read the blurb before looking at the pic...and the couple...hmmm...is that Chris O'Donnell? That wasn't put in the blurb...Who Ahhhhh!

pretty awesome toy, yet again if only the console matched it's awesomeness

[MeisterDon Posted Dec 28th 2008 3:20AM]

Those people out there who keep saying violent video games makes kids violent and that shooter games are teaching children how to handle a gun, well...They might just have something now xD... Please don't take this into complete seriousness...>_>

[Blackflag486 Posted Dec 28th 2008 4:52AM]

That thing is really cool.. Now.. I just need an AWP remake and set it up to work with Counter-Strike so I can HS pwn some nub tards.

"the modded armament rests ... just under a VHS copy of The Lost World in German"
I'm pretty sure it's over. Preposition fail!

[kobioshi Posted Dec 28th 2008 5:30AM]

Is that Chris O'Donnell in that picture? (You know that actor who played Robin in Batman Forever???)

[(Unverified) Posted Dec 28th 2008 8:06AM]

No it's not Chris O'Donnell, it's me =)

@jinsei888: if you can do better, go ahead. i'm allways looking for improvements!

Wii does have a new army game out..I think its Men of honor in which you can purchase a terrible looking Wii Gun...THIS IS NEW FOR NINTENDO, they don't usually do war games
