10 more Nintendo Wii Balance Board games in development
Spread your weight over at least ten titles.
Unlike the single focus of the costly set of wired baby rattles you bought for Samba de Amigo on the Dreamcast, it appears a sure thing that the Wii Fit’s Balance Board is going to be your interface into more than just a world of pretend weight loss. Speaking to IGN, President of Nintendo of America Reggie Fils-Aime has confirmed that there are over ten titles on the horizon that utilise the board’s unique control capabilities.
News had already surfaced that Namco Bandai's Family Ski, originally destined to be controlled only by the Wii remote and Nunchuck, would be modified prior to its release to be compatible with the board. This, coupled with Reggie’s revelation, means that the daunting prospect of parting with another wad of cash for a peripheral of limited use is somewhat less worrying. There are currently no announcements on what the other Wii Balance Board compatible games will be.
