Can’t find your bubble/spirit level? No prob. Just download this software and install it on your Wii and use your Wiimote as a level.

    Problem is — at least awhile ago when I actually downloaded and tested this — that you need a level surface to calibrate it on first. But if you don’t have a level, how do you know your calibration surface is level? :)

    Well, that’s kind of a drag. I assume you only have to do this once? Hey, you can use the level on your iPhone! Oh, wait a minute…

      Bad for the same reason iPhone levels are bad, they need to be calibrated to a level surface first before you can detect delta on the accelerometer.
