Let the Wii and Balance Board dress you in the mornings


How would you feel about the Nintendo Wii and Balance Board helping you choose your clothes and shape your fashion sense? That's what one marketing blogger thinks it could do, and an untapped opportunity just begging to be exposed by some of the world's biggest brands:

Speaking of the Balance Board's weight-sensitive technology, Matthew Finch writes:

Marks and Spencer could showcase its new season range. The Wii could measure your dimensions and weight, building a virtual model of yourself onscreen. Then try out a combination of skirts, shoes, jumpers, hats, to put together your perfect outfit, all from the privacy of your living room, before ordering it all online!

He suggests that such software could be given away free with newspapers (as CDs and DVDs already are). There's definitely potential there, especially for those who prefer Internet shopping and aren't sure what best to buy to suit their style and body type.

Wiifit is going to get lots of blame if this continues and is succesfull.

Is marijuana the best medicine?

“If any creator has not played Mario, then they’re probably not a good creator. That’s something I can say with 100 percent confidence. Mario is, for game creators, the development bible.

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Uh...there's really no reasonable way the Wii could measure someone's dimensions unless you give them to it.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
