A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

EDIT: i should've mentioned that the actual game is wii fit!!

i didn't think much of it when it came out, but i never woulda thought it could be this effective. its too bad this kind of game didn't get bigger?

I worked on a game that supports it. It was total shit compared to playing with a controller. Nintendo dev tools were fucking archaic at the time which made it suck to work with. What are you playing?

Just wii fit right now, what else uses that board? (fleem asks before they took the time to look it up themselves.)

There was a snowboarding game that used it. I don't recall it being particularly good.

I’m not sure what I’m more surprised by; the fact that there really is a Wikipedia list for everything, or that there are over 100 titles that support that thing!
