You might remember Obiwan222222, a modder that has shown us how to play Nintendo Wii games on PSP, and after PlayStation Portable, Obiwan222222 decided to push the limits even further.

After making Wii games playable on PlayStation Portable and iPod Touch, Obiwan222222 decided to make Wii games playable on Android tablets, in this particular case on ASUS Eee Pad Transformer. Using Android app called Splashtop that is used to connect your computer via VNC, and with keyboard dock of the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer, Obiwan222222 attached Xbox 360 wireless controller and he loaded Super Mario Galaxy 2 on his PC via emulator and that's it. Since you're not running the game actually on ASUS Eee Pad Transformer, there is some latency, but the gameplay looks great and the game itself is more than playable.

Although you're not really running Wii games on ASUS Eee Pad Transformer, this is still an interesting way for all enthusiasts to enjoy in Wii games on their tablets so feel free to try it out.
