Another practical use of Wii remote jackets.
Maybe they could also be used as Tenga too?

Kinda weird... >.<;;
And doesn't look hygienic...
Especially wii is a party game and if you share the shoes with others.... with all the sweat from the feet people left behind....

Since the plastic holder has holes at the front of the toes it would allow for 4 or 5 electric pads to be run under the toes for yet 10 more control functions per human foot on a full set of controllers. Would need to be softer plastic though. What an idea thats 20 more positions.
