I have built a few projects using a few different 3 axis accelerometers, such
as the LSM303DLHC. All of them used the i2c interface.

I'm wondering if anyone knows of a somewhat similar device that can be connected to a
microcontroller via a parallel (eg: 8 bit) interface ?
 

Not sure that there're any.

I can suggest 2 possible workarounds though:

1. Use an analog accelerometer and connect it to an ADC with a parallel communication interface.
2. If the lack of a serial port is the problem with your micro-controller. You can "fake" one via bit-banging.
