Wii gonna get in shape
Why join a gym or go outside when you can play a video game? Nintendo hopes to grab some new customers with that mentality. The company will announce a new product today that will ship in the U.S. this spring. The Wii Fit includes the Wii Balance Board, a white rectangle you stand or put your hands on that senses weight and motion. Nintendo has sold almost 1.5 million copies of Wii Fit since it went on sale in Japan last year. The game will sell for less than $100 in the U.S.
Other items showing at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco include a headset that lets you control what you're doing in a game by thinking about it. The $300 device comes from a company called Emotiv.
