Wii Fit - Flimsy. Deadly. Ski-jumping. Gun Bearing Nunchucks!

If recently you’ve found yourself at a loss for activities to do, or just felt like being plain weird and jumping around your house like a lunatic, whilst standing on a flimsy plastic skateboard, kicking an imaginary football (soccer-ball for all your Americans) and headbutting your doorframe, then have we got news for you! Nintendo’s Wii Fit (for the Wii… go figure) launches on December 1st, with a Japanese retail price of 8,800 yen, or approximately… Uh… Um… Ah… Hm. Round-about $75, I think. Whether you’re hell-bent on ski-jumping through your 50″ HDTV (lawsuit, anyone?) or just some quiet yoga, there’s a bit of fun for everyone in the Nintendo Wii.
Now I’ve stopped sounding like an advert, I’ll voice my concerns… These flimsy plastic skate-board ‘balance-board’ things that supposedly help increase accuracy. What’s the chance of one smashing my TV? What about some confirmation the game will ship outside of Japan, too? Something… Anything!?!
UPDATE: Oooh. Spiffy. The board doesn’t actually look all that life-threatening, in comparison to a gun-bearing nunchuck.

It would be great for skateboarding games. Tony Hawk’s next game would be awesome using it instead of tilting the wiimote.

It’s been a while since you commented last.
