Wii Move uses Balance Board to confuse the hell out of us

Wii Move, developed by a team containing former EA and Rockstar North staffers, is the first announced WiiWare game to make use of the Balance Board. It's also ... a game of some kind? Probably? All we know is that it has at least one character model, a woman who is featureless and plainly rendered aside from breast physics. She runs, and then walks, among a crowd of her own clones.
We suspect that the reason PheroseSoft made such a cryptic teaser video for this game was because it's an exercise game, and that may not be as exciting to everyone as some mysterious WiiWare project.

What the ...
Reminds me of Apple's 1984 commercial.

It's good to see these guys have their priorities in order: breasts first; Itagaki style.
Also, that has to be a dude in drag. He must have implants, or something. Not that I'm complaining.

Agreed... that thing is hideous, despite the breast-bouncing hip-swaying action.

DO NOT WANT

Is it just me, or does the model have ridiculously long feet?

That woman creeps me the hell out.

Interesting...I wonder what it is.
Also, I somehow doubt Nintendo is going to let it be called "Wii Move". I don't think they would want it to be confused with their "Wii Chess/Fit/Music/Play/Sports" games.

I can't help but feel that the breast physics weren't necessary.
If she was some hot rendered babe maybe, but that creepy grey robot looking thing?
As someone who loves Wii Fit I'm excited when anything claims use of the board, but this trailer does squat for me. It doesn't even intrigue me, I'm just as interested as if I didn't know the game existed at all.

haha! it's funny how the only physics were the bouncing boobs. i can just see all those game nerds sitting around developing this making sure the boobs bounce. its actually pretty pathetic!
Jeff @ Jun 13th 2008 12:42PM
those models are horrendous.

How about a Wiiware game where we play a Charles Barkley character and we swing our butts to knock opponents aside for rebounds?
Or how about Time Warp pelvic thrusts?
reglop @ Jun 13th 2008 4:48PM
I would -so- do the Time Warp again!

Teaser or not, there is no way an art director approved that animation.

That was terrifying.

Do girls really walk like that? I never realised I did. That's probably because most of us girls don't. I'd hate to imagine what kind of physics they do with a guy.

That really freaked me out. Nothing else matters as long as the boobs bounce!
