Teaser: connecting Nintendo Switch controllers to the Wii
A few months ago I started playing with the Bluetooth controller embedded in
the Nintendo Wii, to see if it was possible to get it to connect to other
devices than just the Wii remotes. If you ask internet forums, you might fall
into the impression that the Wii is not using a standard Bluetooth controller,
or that it has been somehow "crippled" in order to restrict it to connect to
the Wiimotes only, but that's not the case: it's an ordinary controller from
its era, it's . . .

Choreograph is still alive
Back in 2023 I started writing a game -- which is still under development as
I'm dedicating very little time to it -- and at a certain point I found myself
in need of animating the movement of a few rectangles on the screen. Having
decided to code the game in C++ and to use just libSDL as a base (in order to
keep the game as portable as possible), I started looking around for existing
solutions which would do just what I need: animating points between two values,
while . . .

No, libogc did not steal RTEMS code
Update 09/05/2025: while the text below addresses a couple of specific blocks of code,
after publishing this article I've been contacted by some people providing more
evidence pointing that the similarity of the code goes beyond what one might
interpret as “inspiration”. There are also a couple of other bits on
information that the reader might want to take into account: first, a
screenshot of an . . .

Porting OpenGL games to the Nintendo Wii: chro.mono
More than one year has passed since my last blog post, and I'm a bit ashamed to
confess that today's post is again about porting games to the Nintendo Wii — I
always tell to myself that I'm soon going to move to something else, possibly
less geeky than this (by the way, there is something else I could write
about, but I'll leave it for another post!), but the problems posed by porting
games to an old console are just way too stimulating, and my brain . . .

libSDL2 and VVVVVV for the Wii
Just a quick update on something that I've been working on in my free time.
I recently refurbished my old Nintendo Wii, and for some reason I cannot yet
explain (not even to myself) I got into homebrew programming and decided to
port libSDL (the 2.x version -- a 1.x port already existed) to it. The result
of this work is already available via the devkitPro
distribution, and although I'm sure there are still many bugs, it's . . .

Will the internet forget russophobia?
I've often wondering what will happen when this horrific war in Europe will
finally be over. I won't be discussing politics here, but what is mostly
interesting to me is how (and if) all the companies who made high proclaims
about not doing business with Russia will justify their getting back into the
Russian market. They will probably count on the fact that the war will be long,
and that people will forget what these companies' stance was. After all, the
world has forget . . .

Un editoriale di Marco Travaglio
Nonostante io non legga pi Il Fatto Quotidiano (per i motivi spiegati
qui, che restano tuttora
validi), continuo a imbattermi negli editoriali di Marco Travaglio, che spesso
apprezzo. Oggi invece mi sono imbattuto nell'introduzione del suo nuovo libro
