Seriously, we all look like that.

 

That's because we all shotgun maple syrup. It puts hair on your everything.

Wait...what???

 

Great thread.  Didn't realized some of the fighters are so thin.  Can't wait to get this game over the summer.  Let us know how you like it.  Btw, can more than one Bb be used?

Will do. And no, I'm afraid there won't be any game that can use more than one Balance Board. It turns out that the Balance Board is interpreted as being two Wiimotes by the Wii, so using a Balance board and Wiimote takes up three of the four available slots. I don't know why they did it that way, but it means no multiplayer BB action ever.

 



^^Darn. That sucks. Thanks for clarifying that though.

Care to shed some light on the maple syrup shotgun comment? Or are you leaving that to famousringo?

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

this isn't true. They can support 8 devices in a Bluetooth group, and the Wii console counts as 1, so there are 7 slots to use for controllers. They put the BB in the 4th controller slot, and you can have 3 other controllers at the same time. The BB also uses one of the 3 slots not used by the controllers. Shaun White allows you to play 3 player with 1 person using a Wii remote and BB.

However, I don't think Nintendo wants to change the firmware to support 2 balance boards. Heck, they could support bluetooth headsets with some of those 3 extra channels but they don't.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Yes, but not because the hardware is incapable

Okay, that statement wasn't entirely accurate.

Obviously, it doesn't put hair on your everything, because Bear Hugger's scalp is bald, even though the rest of him is quite hirscute. It would be more accurate to say that chugging maple syrup puts hair on your anything. You never know where it might strike!

Sorry for the confusion.
