Wii #0655 - Wii Fit (Europe)

[Chinman]

does anyone know for a fact if the japanese balance board works on a pal machine, i.e. is it region locked, i assume that it will but want to know for sure. Thanks

 

[Chinman]

you can buy the board without the game. im getting the board only today. its like mario kart, you wouldnt buy four games to get four wheels wen you can buy the wheel on its own!

Yeah but it isn't like mario kart, because you can't play wii fit with multiple people simultaniously...

i assume there are other games in development that will use multiple balance boards for simultaneous multiplayer, on wikipedia they say there are at least 10 games in development for use with the balance board, for example a skiing game

Language in release info would seem to be wrong.

It shows Dutch instead of German (The old DE/DU problem)

Accessories are not region-locked.

Don't expect to see balance boards sold separately 'til other titles that use the board come out ...

for people that mayve forgot, family ski (jap) uses the balance board and works on PAL

I didn't forget ... it's being released in the US under the name We Ski, on the 13th of May ... however, it is not getting a European release ... and, as I said, don't expect to see balance boards sold on their own 'til other titles that use it are released

unless you want to pay 100% inflated prices for just the board itself then go ahead!

It's about the best video I have ever seen. He's so smooth it hurts!

On topic: Download board, ho ho. Disc problem, shaky fist. Region locked board = No. Yadda yadda yadda....

According to this, it's out in Europe on June 13th

Does Wii Fit contain the 001 drive check like mario kart?

Well, it's out today...but then again it's sort of NOT. I just called a couple of stores as I didn't preorder. All's sold out. As expected.
Probably the end of next week.

Again Nintendo (probably deliberately) caused shortage.

F%*&$k them

Original disc not working with wiikey


edit: after trying 20 times, it worked oO

 

[aligborat69]

I would check, but doesnt open in trucha! Probably because of the 3-partition problem.

I realise the thread's about Wii Fit, but my response was related to the few discussing Family Ski (or We Ski), which uses the balance board. Family Ski is released in Europe on June 13th

Strange, I just saw this ad at Bart Smit (hughe toystore in NL) where you can pre-order this game which will hit the store on June 13th...
