Forums - Gaming Discussion - Wii Fit just got busted!

http://gizmodo.com/5102054/jog-controller-forces-you-to-run-in-place-while-gaming

PB&J, tables and chairs, liquor and swimming, jogging and gaming—these are matches made in heaven. Fortunately, the Jog has you covered with the whole jogging and gaming thing. The Jog attaches to your belt and connects between your Wii or PS2 and the controller—forcing you to jog in place in order to move your character (can you say "hot seller?"). I must say that I haven't encountered a fitness peripheral of this caliber since the Gamercize Pro-Sport and it's PC partner-in-crime (and that is not a good thing). Fortunately, only those in the UK will be able to get their hands on one in the foreseeable future.

 

not very useful but interesting :)

 

 



Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

Wow... if people are afraid of looking stupid playing Wii (unreasonable), wait 'til they try this...




Hmm. So it's basically a Bluetooth pedometer.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

i dont think itll work vert well, i mean there are thousands of games for it to be made calibrated for...



I'm speechless...

That's... interesting, Shepard.



It's like they took everything out of Wii Fit except the running bits.



It reminds me of that one NES controller.

The "roller rocker" I think it was.

Ironically doing typing this as someone 3 feet away is doing the Wii Fit jogging segment.
