We all know about
Nintendo's announcement on the upcoming
Wii Fit right? (I'm sure we all paid attention to the conference
Reggie spoke in, if not shame on you. Kidding!).
On that note,
Namco Bandai has decided to jump onto the fitness bandwagon, with a new game called
Family Trainer: Athletic World. The control scheme is a mat on the floor as well as the
Wii Remote.
they have mentioned a two player "tramcar adventure' which is said to have one person in a car, jumping and stepping on the control mat. The
Wii Remote will also be used to shoot rocks as well as other obstacles.
(A screen shot showing the game in action)
It looks like we'll be seeing double action in this game where you'd have to focus on the mat as well as the
Wii Remote. What kind of throws me off though is the fact that in the screenshot the graphics look really cheesy and slopped together, just to make a quick buck. Let's hope that this is not the final design for graphics in the game.
Family Trainer: Athletic World is going to hit stores in
Japan sometime next year.
