Playing Mario With Kinect



Here is a video of a guy playing Mario using Kinect as the controller.

"I programmed it to recognize my motions and passed the virtual button presses to the NES emulator. I could have placed a simulated keypad right in front of me that I can press with my hands, but I thought full body gestures were more in the spirit of Kinect. Of course, Mario isn't designed to be played like this, so this is really really hard."

After noticing how old this video is I wasn't sure if I should bother posting it or not, but I considered it to be geeky enough.
