1080 developer confirms Balance Board game


Long-time 1080 Snowboarding fans take heed -- Giles Goddard is hard at work creating a new WiiWare game. The main programmer for the Nintendo 64 classic is leading development with Vitei (those crazy Theta guys), and he confirmed to Cubed3 that the game will utilize the capabilities of the Balance Board.

Must be another bodacious snowboarding game, then? Well, there's no indication that the unnamed game will feature snowboarding, and there isn't much room for crazy speculation after he states "games you would think would work well with the Balance Board actually don't."

Maybe, maybe not. Not to worry -- the mystery game will be released in Japan as soon as September, so details should be on the way super soon.
