Kinect hacker Yankeyan is at it again. You may not know this, but Yankeyan was the creator of the Kinect Lightsaber hack that you've most probably heard of earlier in the week. Well, this time around he's using Kinect to play Super Mario Bros. Video can be found in readmore.
From the video's description, Yankeyan outlines what he did:

"I programmed it to recognize my motions and passed the virtual button presses to the NES emulator. I could have placed a simulated keypad right in front of me that I can press with my hands, but I thought full body gestures were more in the spirit of Kinect. Of course, Mario isn't designed to be played like this, so this is really really hard."
