3rd Party Wii Balance Board Coming Soon?

Published by Joey
Tags: Balance Board, Rumor, Wii Fit

G-Board Balance Board

A company called Njoy has recently posted what appears to be the first third-party Wii Balance Board peripheral on Amazon.co.uk. The G-Board Balance Board looks very similar in appearance to Nintendo’s model, but also features a digital scale in the center of the board.

The product is listed under pre-order status only, is scheduled for a September 12th release, and is priced at £64.99. In addition, the board is not listed under the US version of Amazon, and can only be found on the United Kingdom’s site.

Considering that this is the only known online posting of this product, this information should be taken with a grain of salt and is considered unconfirmed at this point. However, the product listing does exist, so feel free to speculate away on this one.

Rumor: Konami jumping onboard the retro boat

With the amount attention and excitement that Capcom’s Mega Man 9 has garnered since it’s reveal, it would make sense that other companies would tap the potential of their classics.

That may be exactly what Konami is planning, according to the latest issue of EGM. No word on a particular franchise, but I’m having a really good time with Contra 4. Something along those lines would be very welcome.

Rumor: America is getting Metallic Silver DS

Published by Robert
Tags: Metallic Silver DS, Rumor

Glossy Silver DS

Adding to the already-plentiful color schemes the DS currently has available, GoNintendo’s RawMeatCowboy is reporting that America will see the release of the Metallic Silver DS, a color that has long since been available in Japan and European territories. Technically the color is already available in the States, but is branded with the Guitar Hero: On Tour graphic. He cites a nameless “source,” so gently place this news bit in the rumor bin until further confirmation surfaces.
