Nintendo patents idea featuring Wiimote inside “remote controlled toy”

Hey, it’s the return of R.O.B. the robot! Okay, not quite, but Nintendo did submit an interesting patent related to a “remotely controlled mobile device control system.”

At the heart of the patent, Nintendo would be able to include a Wiimote-like controller inside a “remote controlled toy”. The device could then be paired with a console for new kinds of functionality.

Patents often don’t see the light of day, so this could be nothing more than an idea from Nintendo. It’s intriguing nonetheless!
