homestarrunner.com has games designed for the Wii here.
they're kinda dumb, but it's neat that they've made special stuff for Wii owners.
hopefully more sites will start making special stuff for the Wii.

Yes!!!

Someone's cracked the Wii controller codes, opening the doors to D-pad and button input in online games. With this in mind, it's likely that the games will get much better in the very near future.

That's awesome! I'm already salivating at the possibilties. Does the analog stick on the Nunchuck work?

I don't think so. Here's all the information I have on this.
(I'm surprised more online games aren't taking advantage of the extra buttons on the Wii)

Ah, I see. They're just being reported as keycodes. I suppose the nunchunk (if it even communicated with Opera!) would be reported as some other input device like a joystick. Which means that one would have to get into some Opera-specific extensions that may not be implemented on the Wii.

Still, I think this is pretty cool. I'll take what I can get!
