You'd have to do some serious work to make it happen.

-The webcam (presumably usb) is not going to have a driver on the Wii. You'll have to write one.

-That means you're going to need a Wii dev kit to know the Wii's API. They cost around $2000 last I saw, I thought.

-You're going to have to develop an application to run the webcam.


Good luck with that. (But not impossible. Certainly can happen)

You know, one of these days someone on these boards is actually going to buy the dev kit, create the driver, and say "cool, it works, thanks for the help, guys".

Then we'll all feel stupid for thinking they're stupid.

But I wouldn't count on it.
