Social Gaming Network, a Palo Alto-based company recently announced the release of the first video game that wirelessly connects a personal computer to an iPhone or iPod Touch, allowing players to wave the mobile devices like a motion-based controller a la the Nintendo Wii.

In their line of new, free cross-platform games, they use the motion-sensing accelerometer in the iPhone or iPod Touch along with its broadband connection - either Wi-Fi or 3G - to turn it into a Wii-like controller for a PC-based Web game.

The company’s first game iFun’s iGolf is available for free download in the Apple iPhone App Store now. iTennis will be release later this year. SGN has plans to take the concept to other accelerometer-equipped phones such as the G1 from T-Mobile and Google.
