It already makes more business sense to make a game for the balance board than the PS3. There's less competition, cheaper development costs, and the higher userbase is just around the corner. And there were several new balance board games playable at E3.

Here are the ones I played:
Mario & Sonic at the Winter Olympics
We Cheer 2
The new DDR
Shaun White Snowboarding World Stage

I saw these around too:
EA Active
All Star Cheer Squad
Wii Fit +


I love this guy! he's a genius :)

and yes, WiiFit is software which will soon (when WiiFit+ comes) start to go down in sales but i think he balance board is an actual platform and it will pass PS3 sales, and maybe even XBOX360 sales lol, that'd be so funny :)

there's EA Sports Active which is bundled with the balance board, it had a nice opening week and i predict more to come so that should count too in terms of sales for the balance board, it'll pass PS3 and X360 sales sooner than you think!

Nintendo should sell the balance board alone, my friend had to buy WiiFit just to play Shawn White Snowboarding :(

EA Sports active is not bundled with balance board.

I'd say it depends on how early the PS3 gets its next price cut. If it doesn't surpass the PS3 before the price cut then it never will.

Its been selling at (roughly) twice the rate of the PS3 since it was released, its unlikely that an increase in sales for the PS3 would (directly) impact sales of Wii Fit, and it is unlikely that any price cut would (over the long term) increase PS3 sales to double their current level. Wii Fit may or may not pass the PS3 in sales, but a price reduction for the PS3 will not "Save" the PS3.
