About

A BASIC system for the Wii, comprising of-

• A BASIC interpreter
• Language extensions for Wii related features
• A development IDE

Current Status

After testing BSCRIPT, we found some flaws with the interpreter, and I am currently looking into other open source interpreters, and even the possibility of writing my own.

Testing

Testers (with my thanks): AerialX

If you would like to help testing, please feel free to contact me. See my page for contact info

Example (Simple using BSCRIPT version)

wiimote_ir(1)
 
print ""
print "Welcome to the WiiBASIC example"
print "-------------------------------"
 
wiimote_check
wiimote_irx(1)
 
while wiimote_btnheld(1, 128) = 0
 wiimote_check
 
 xloc = wiimote_irx(1) / 16
 yloc = wiimote_iry(1) / 16
 
 if xloc < 0 then
  xloc = 0
 endif
 
 if yloc < 0 then
  yloc = 0
 endif
 
 cursor(xloc, yloc)
 print "X"
wend
 
cls
 
for i = 1 to 28
 cursor(1, 3)
 print ""
 print right$("Thank you for using WiiBASIC", i)
 print right$("----------------------------", i)
 for r = 1 to 600
  l = 0
 next
next
 
for i = 1 to 1000
 l = 0
next

Example (Snake by AerialX, using BSCRIPT version)

Sample game coded by AerialX. Was a great demo for showing speed and a good test of the language. Also shows the interpreter needs work before it will be of any real use. Watch this space
