Wii fit balance board
is one of the most sophisticated game
controllers and this balance board is
a great innovation in game playing, as well as
for exercise and fitness.
It is pressure
sensitive and detects shifts in balance in any
direction so during play the balance board
becomes a snowboard, ski's or a tightrope. The
middle seven poses are a little more intense,
and all require the use of the board in some
fashion.
You can use
the wii balance
board for daily wii fit tests which are
offered by the actual console to evaluate two
key measures that everyone can track via
progress charts.
The strength exercises set a
pressure range that you must match, and the
aerobics use the board (and the wii-mote for
jogging) to calculate your score. There are
even snowboarding and skiiing exercise games
involving slalom courses, amongst many other
activities that are, incidentally aimed at the
casual games market.
