Spoofing a Wiimote?

Wireless & IoT
1

Hello. I recently saw the Wiimote Guts project and was hoping someone might be able to offer some insight on how the bluetooth functions.

I’m trying to spoof a Wiimote with my computer and a USB bluetooth dongle- this should be possible? I’m hoping to output packets from my computer and have them picked up by the Wii, while a Wiimote is paired with the Wii. How the Wii determines which Wiimote is sending which packets and such confounds me. If I were to use a bluetooth sniffer to record packets being sent by the Wiimote to the Wii, and then changed my dongle’s vendor/product ID to match that of the Wiimote and output these exact l2cap packets, would it work?

Any tips / advice on achieving this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

have you looked here?? http://www.wiili.org/Wiimote

Nothing is impossible but it’s probably harder than changing some ID numbers.

did you ever find a solution for this?

i started working on this about a year ago for some

electronics project classes I wanted to do for kids and

I made some headway, but never finished.

let me know if you’re interested in working together

on this (from a distance I assume…I’m in Cleveland)

take care
