LEGO released the open source firmware for the ARM CPU. They did not
release the firmware source for the BT module which is proprietary code
developed by the BT module/hardware manufacturer (CSR)

CSR's BT module is a "Bluecore V2.0" version. The support for SPP
(Serial Port Profile) is within this module and likely this is the
best/only location for implementation of a HID (Human Interface Device)
profile stack.

If above is accurate, it seems very unlikely that NXT will be able to
support the WII modules without an upgrade to the Bluecore firmware.


The Mindsensors Playstation Controller is a "standard" PS2 interface. If
you Google around you'll find this is almost a standard SPI protocol
