New York (dbTechno) – EA Sports president Peter Moore has come out and stated that they are currently working on a fitness game for the Wii that uses the Balance Board. He believes it will be more in line with an intense workout, one which makes you sweat. It appears this will be a bit more strenuous than Wii Fit.
Wii FIt is one of the most highly-anticipated games in North America for 2008, and is being released under the notion that it can serve as a weight loss tool.
EA Sports’ Peter Moore believes it is not going to do enough though.
he stated that they are working on a fitness game for the Wii which does a more “western” style workout, one which gets you moving a lot more, and sweating it up.
He stated to Eurogamer, “I call Wii Fit more eastern fitness, where it senses weight and balance, like Tai-Chi. It’s omre about holistic fitness. I don’t think the board is going to take a pounding. We need to look more at western fitness in which I can actually be moving and start to sweat a little bit, and that’s what we’re working on right now.”
