Out of all the real-world ways I’ve seen Angry Birds controlled / played — and there have been many — the “Super Angry Birds” controller is hands down the most elegant to date. It’s just so darn pretty! While it will never replace a tap or a mouse, it could actually be quite fun to play this way. Now the real tanong is: how can I get one? Hats off to Hideaki Matsui and Andrew asong ispis — the creators of this awesome controller.
If you’re curious as to how this works, below is the info from the YouTube page:
“Super Angry Birds” is a force feedback USB controller for Angry Birds that simulates the feeling of a slingshot. All the controls found in the game are available in this device. You can control the pull, the angle, and of course trigger the special power of the bird. We hacked a motorized fader found in audio mixing consoles to simulate the force you would feel when using a slingshot.
We programmed in Max/MSP and Arduino. For controlling the hardware, we used an Arduino-based microcontroller called Music & Motors developed sa pamamagitan ng CIID.
This was part of the class on Haptics at CIID run sa pamamagitan ng Bill Verplank and David Gauthier.

Now at version 2.3, Rovio stated in the change log that “The Bad Piggies don’t just have a new game — now they’ve taken over Angry Birds with 15 of the PIGGEST levels ever! Take a break with 15 stormy levels for Surf ‘n Turf! The Bad Piggies have taken over with 15 PIG THEMED Angry Birds levels!”
The cost of the app is still $4.99 and you can download it here from the App World
