STAY IN SHAPE WITH BIGBEN INTERACTIVE
This Winter Bigben Interactive releases two Wii™ video games with innovative accessories to help you keep in shape: a full-size exercise bike and a personal trainer that includes advice on nutrition.

CYBERBIKE

Discover the very first video game that comes with an exercise bike—have fun while pedalling! Cyberbike introduces a brand new way to do sports in your living room. The game invites you use your eco-citizen’s head and legs to clean up the planet. Clear paths and roads of the sources of pollution that are ruining the environment as you cycle along on some of the most improbable vehicles ever imagined—on land, sea and air. Using the bike included with the game, players are able to ride through 18 different circuits. As you progress, numerous accessories are unlocked to customise your vehicles and equipment, such as new backpacks and new vehicle colours.

 

There’s something for all the family with three game modes: Fitness, Story, and Multiplayer (up to four players taking turns).

The exercise bike bundled with the game is a genuine innovation. It is simple to connect it to your Nintendo Wii and can be used by all the family thanks to the adjustable saddle and handlebars.

MY BODY COACH

Discover My Body Coach, your new personal trainer! Stressed? Looking to shed a few pounds? Want to tone up but never find time to get to the gym? With My Body Coach you can get sporty any time you like, in the comfort of your own living room.

Developed in partnership with sports and nutrition specialists, My Body Coach provides you with a personal programme adapted to your age, sex, weight and physical condition. The famous trainer to Hollywood stars, Valérie Orsoni, follows your progress and provides precious advice every step of the way. To complement your sporting activities you’ll be given all the advice on nutrition you’ll need, including suggestions for meals.

You can decide to follow your personal programme to the letter or jump straight into the gym with a session of your choice. Set the duration and type of exercise, (muscle strengthening, or cardio training) and go! Your every movement is captured by the Wiimotes and transmitted to the virtual coach who will guide your activities from your TV screen.

With sessions from seven minutes to an hour long, warm up and stretching included, your activities are ever changing so you’ll never get bored. Over 200 different movements!

My Body Coach comes with two 500g dumbbells into which you slide the Wiimotes.

A genuine customised training program, My Body Coach will train every part of your body and help you reach the objectives you set for yourself. My Body Coach is more than a video game: it’s the ideal training partner for sports.

My Body Coach will launch on 20th November while Cyberbike will be published in January 2010, both from Big Ben Interactive.

WOW sounds fabulous.......I really hope nintendo see this & help them out more & more + market this game. Because doing bike games on wii would be ACE!


All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Around the Network

this is kind of sad



I agree.. they sell people Bike's to ride while playing a video game.. people play that video game to "lose weight".. people should try riding actual bikes..



Currently playing: MAG, Heavy Rain, Infamous

 

Getting Plat trophies for: Heavy Rain, Infamous, RE5,  Burnout and GOW collection once I get it.

 

I'd rather keep doing this:



 

The responses in this thread give me Guitar Hero deja-vu.



WHERE IS MY KORORINPA 3

Around the Network

Not a new idea, exactly. They make games that hook directly up to the TV (no console needed) that simulate travel by bike, while keeping track of distance, speed and calories burned.

Nintendo is going to win the "Most Cluttered Livingroom" award.



This is a terrible idea.



So whats so bad a bout it? How is it sadder than people in fitness studios sitting on bikes while watching TV?

This reminds me of a young child's s toy -- the Fisher-Price Smart Cycle.

Of course, since it does not incorporate learning in the games, it is doubtful it will be as successful.

Also, I would stay away from this, given Big Ben's line-up of games (in Europe):
r Nintendo Wii

* DOKAPON KINGDOM
* Action Girlz Racing
* Anubis 2
* Billy The Wizard
* CRAZY MINI GOLF
* Cocoto Magic Circus
* Kawasaki Jet Ski
* Kawasaki Quad Bikes
* Kidz Sports International Football
* Mini Desktop Racing
* Monster Trux Arenas
* Monster Trux Offroad
* Myth Makers : Super Kart GP
* Myth Makers: Trixie in Toyland
* Ninjabread Man
* Aventure Offroad Extreme
* Rock´N´Roll Adventures
* Urban Extreme Street Rage

(And yes, that first one really does not belong in this group).

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Would it be cheaper than the actual exercise bike?
