Electronic Arts only announced "Dead Space" for Wii yesterday, but an intrepid PC user hacked their Wiimote into the PC version of "Dead Space" and recorded their experiment, providing a glimpse at how the game might play on Nintendo's hardware.

A Wii port of last year's critically acclaimed horror shooter "Dead Space" was announced by Electronic Arts yesterday, but a version "Dead Space" for Wii already exists, if you count a clever Wiimote hack one gamer's been playing with.
YouTube user acsn95 programmed some computer scripts that allows the PC version of "Dead Space" to recognize his Wiimote as a compatible controller, and recorded his gameplay experience for the rest of us to check out.

EA will obviously put more work into finessing the Wiimote's nuances for the official "Dead Space" port, but acsn95's video proves there's little reason the game won't work from a control perspective.
