E3 07: Wii Fit
After a video demonstration showing people indulging in various yoga-style exercises and dance routines, Miyamoto enlisted the help of fitness trainers to show the game being played live onstage. Although the calibration was apparently skewed, the general principle behind the leg-stretch routine was simple to observe. The woman on stage stood on the wireless white mat and replicated the controlled balance movements made by the character onscreen. The second game that was demonstrated looked a lot like Konami's Dance Dance Revolution series, with a series of arrows appearing onscreen to dictate the direction of your movement. Apparently, it was supposed to be in time with the music, although again the calibration was slightly off--so it wasn't a perfect demonstration of the technology. After such strenuous activity, the third game was clearly meant to offer a cooldown, with a simple hip-twisting exercise showing off more of the mat's motion-sensing technology. The game promises more than 40 of these little games, each categorized into one of four categories.
