Wii Nunchuk Controlled Model Train

When Nintendo first released their nunchuk controller, we’re pretty sure that they never realized the potential of hacking this device. Fast forward a couple of years, and here we are with a model train that can be controlled through the Wii nunchuk itself – of course, this project gets some help from an Arduino microcontroller, an Adafruit motor shield and the Wii nunchuk itself. Wave your way through your collection of tracks at home, but chances are you will toss the train set away after a while and settle for a real Wii game instead.
