Everyone has been playing around with WiiFit. Knows how accurate the board can be. Now lets brainstorm for some awesome ideas to utilize the board!!!

My idea is that the board can act as pedals for driving games. So wii can get some proper driving games, unlike silly mario kart.

Snowboarding

Surfing

Skateboarding

Luge (sit on it)

Go karting (where leaning helps you make it round corners)

------------------

Rail Shooter Idea: (like Time Crisis, House of the Dead, Resident Evil etc)

Put 1 wiimote in your pocket.
To progress the stage, you need to 'run' to the next bit of cover.

To actually duck for cover you need to stand on the wii board.

To poke your head out of cover and aim at the baddies you need to 'lean' to one side.

Use another Wiimote to shoot.

Or like one of those things you sit on your lap to put your plate on. What a great idea really, you'd be able to weigh the food you are eating, even more fitness!

I think it's a rather large plate however, we'd have to call that one WiiUnFitness as you may eat everything on the "plate".

It sounds just like time crisis at the arcades, but I like it. I also like your karting idea. Could be mixed with a wii wheel and leaning increases the turn.

Yeah and when you crouch down on the board it should reckonise that to.
Turn it side on and play cricket, use the wiimote for the bat and the board to get on the front or back foot.

WiiDoormat..

You live in a suburb, you want to make friends, maybe even lovers. You knock on people's door to introduce yourself (done by shaking the Wiimote in a knocking motion), get items and make alliances, cause there are always bad guys around the neighbourhood.

You can pick up professions, like door-to-door salesman, pimp, the milk man, drug dealer or the police. Make money and throw house parties. You can dance on the balance board.

You shake the Wiimote to knock on the door, it opens. You have options of what you want to say, if they invite you in don't forget to wipe your feet!! Or you will be an enemy straight away.

There are over 1000 different characters that open the door, you can make long time friends and they will invite you to their house parties. However, trouble may occur or it could get intimate, depends on how well you wipe your feet.

Becareful it's not always what it seems, the hot chick called Barbra in the skimpy bikini who just answered the door could actually be a man called Barry, even worse the hot chick in the skimpy bikini could just be bait, and when you enter the house you drugged and your kidneys stolen..

Fighting game. Lean to dodge, or duck. Stand straight to put more into an upper cut etc.

Lift corresponding leg to enhance a kick.
