Beware: Wii Fit not a fan of shag pile carpet

shuandrew | April 18, 2008 | News | Wii 
A leaked copy of the Wii Fit instruction booklet has revealed that gamers with thick carpet might have a little bit of trouble with the Balance Board unless it is raised from the ground.
You may have noticed that in all of Nintendo's marketing for Wii Fit, players have been standing atop the Balance Board while it is set on a shiny, flat surface. However, what for those whose homes are carpeted throughout? According to a leaked copy of the instruction booklet, there may have been trouble ahead, but Nintendo has thought of a solution.

    Yeah, the board would still be flat down when your standing on it. Even if it needs to be censored, just go get a piece of wood to put under the board or something.

    I guess I can play in the kitchen. I can see my TV from there, hopefully the game picks up my movements. >_>
