GAME CONTROLLING APPARATUS FOR PEDALING MOTION
First Claim
1. A game controlling apparatus for using a pedaling motion with a video game, comprising:
- a platform element adapted to secure a game controller; and
a first handle attached to the platform element and adapted to rotate about a first axis of rotation relative to the platform element, and a second handle attached to the platform element and adapted to rotate about a second axis of rotation relative to the platform element.

Abstract
A game controlling apparatus designed for using a pedaling (or winding) motion to control a video game. The game controlling apparatus preferably includes a platform element adapted to secure a game controller and at least a first handle and a second handle, each handle being capable of rotation about an axis of rotation relative to the platform element. The game controlling apparatus additionally may include an attachment mechanism adapted to secure the game controller to the platform. The first and second handle are preferably positioned on opposite sides of the platform element and on opposite ends of the platform element so that a pedaling motion while gripping the first and second handle will produce rotation of the game controller preferably about a centrally located point on the game controller.

15. An accessory for a motion-sensing game controller, in which the accessory is used to induce a continuous tumbling motion of the game controller and to provide exercise for a user, comprising:
-
a platform element that provides structural support to the accessory and includes an attachment mechanism to constrain the game controller in a substantially central location on the platform element; and a first handle attached to the platform element and adapted to rotate about a first axis of rotation relative to the platform element; and a second handle attached to the platform element and adapted to rotate about a second axis of rotation relative to the platform element; wherein the first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are coplanar and not collinear such that the first handle and the second handle—
when gripped by the user and moved in a cyclical motion—
induce a continuous tumbling motion of the game controller. - View Dependent Claims (16)
