Wii Fit: Balanced Gaming







The active-play phenomenon started by Wii Sports now spreads to your whole body thanks to the pressure-sensitive Wii Balance Board (name not final), which comes packed with the Wii Fit Game. The Wii Balance Board is a Reebok Step look-alike, with dual sensors that can detect your weight and balance on each side as you exercise to the various on-screen Wii activities in Wii Fit.The board is used for an extensive array of fun and dynamic activities, including aerobics, yoga, muscle stretches and games.If you've had enough gaming, you can also have the Balance Board diagnose your body mass index.One of the games that will support the Wii Balance Board is Namco's upcoming Family Ski Game. It looks like the company had a change of heart, given they previously stated it would not be supporting the new peripheral. We imagine this will come as great news for those hoping to include this title in their workout regimen - it'll make a good complement to Wii Fit.
