EA Sports Active: EA’s competitor to Wii Fit due on May 19th
Boy Genius Report — ... by Bob Greene of Oprah fame. The game will not involve the Wii balance board and will instead make use of multiple non-Wii workout accessories that will be used alongside standard Wiimotes. Beyond that, the title will run $60 as opposed to the $90 commanded by Wii Fit — if you can find it at that price — positioning it well amongst Wii-toting fitness buffs. Any takers - or did you just buy a Wii Fit to use the balance board with snowboarding games like we did? [Via SAI] Read
