Opera, the firm behind the Internet Explorer rival and the Wii Internet Channel browser has today published the application programming interface (API) for the Wii Remote.

In simple terms, the development means that web programmers will be able to design pages using JavaScript that can then retrieve information from multiple Wii Remotes at once. This includes button presses, rotation, distance from the screen and of course, the pointer position. The technology is also compatible with the Nunchuck attachment.
