At this year’s Leipzig Games Convention, the 39-year old Tony Hawk spoke about the recent release of Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground, now available for the Wii and Nintendo DS in North America and coming next week in the PAL regions. After mentioning that his kids loved playing Wii games, Hawk was asked if he had seen Wii Fit and the Wii Balance Board peripheral that it introduces. Here’s what he had to say.
I’ve seen a little bit of it. I think it’s possible to incorporate the Wii Fit board into one of our games, but it would change the control scheme dramatically and we’d have to figure out how to make that work. So I don’t know yet.
Not sure how you’d do a 900 on a half-pipe while standing firmly on your Wii Balance Board, but hey – if Neversoft and Page 44 can make it work, then by all means.
