GDC 07: Wii dev training to take place at this week [update 1]

In case you live under a rock, GDC is kicking off this week (that stands for Game Developer's Conference) and it turns out Nintendo enthusiasts have something besides Miyamoto's keynote to look forward to. This week during the event, attendees will be able to get some schooling on how to create titles for Nintendo's new Wii console. To quote the AFP article: "Among its (GDC's) features will be lessons in designing games for Nintendo's popular new Wii video game console with motion-sensitive controllers."

The piece then takes a hard left turn into casual games territory, talking of the importance of that market. Still though, it should be interesting to see what kind of demonstrations those who attend the lessons on Wii development receive. How hard could it be to develop with a motion-sensitive control scheme?

Update: Changed headline to reflect organization of this year's GDC event on our end.
