Control Your Games Using Your Muscles

Darke:
The difference between delay in wired and wireless controllers is far too minor for the human brain to even recognise it. The one good argument I've heard against wireless devices is that they can be interfered with by all kinds of signals, and that can cause a noticeable delay.

JD:
Never had that problem. Unless you count TV remotes.

That's because you can afford nice ones. I'm still using a $20 mouse from Office Depot because I haven't ever had a time that there wasn't something better to spend my money on than a gaming mouse.

The delay on some of the wireless devices I've tried is just long enough for it to feel off and for me to click just a bit to the side of what I am trying to click.

I wouldn't mind my mouse being wireless, but I can't afford one that would have the response time I would need, and the problems that I am having would be solved rather easily with the use of some wood staples.

Melodic:
I wasn't trying to say "you're poor", just that you shouldn't discredit good wireless stuff.

McTaggart:
I don't like wireless mice because they're usually really heavy and when their batteries are getting low you get noticeable stuttering and delay and inaccuracy. However this has nothing at all to do with what the op posted. I see no reason why once you've got this working and miniaturised that it'll need to be wired. I think this technology has been around for a while, it's how people manipulate fancy prosthetic hands.

It's nice to know that should I ever lose a hand in a freak accident I'll still be able to piss away my time playing games.
