I don't understand how you can qualify developping a peripheral like the Wii Fit board who can measure weight and your movement on it as a cheap cash-in.

Here's the way I see it: For me, this game fits into the same category as Wii Sports, Sonic & Mario, and ect. This game, like the others I mentioned, is a low budget game meant only to cash in on the Wii. Therefore, it's a cheap cash-in like the other games. If this were a third-party game doing the exact same thing, you guys would be calling it low quality party game BS.

 Others have responded before me but since you were replying to me I'll reply too :

 - Wii Fit is NOT a low-budget game, even if you leave the development of the balance board out (which you shouldn't). Making all mini-games so they read your movement accurately requires a lot of effort.

- Wii Sports is not a cheap cash-in... to this day I haven't a Wii game where gestures are read as accurately as in Wii Sports.

- Cash-ins are games thrown together with a minimum of work and very few consideration for gameplay (as long as it kinda works it's ok for them)  Wii Fit and Sports just don't fall in that category.
