Horsey Game To Use Wii Balance Board


KOEI’s G1 Jockey will now utilise the Wii Balance Board to “recreate the horse racing experience.”

This will mean that across the country, those playing the game will be crouched over and invisible horse in order to keep their balance and whip the beast between their legs.

Naoki Ktashima, executive vice president of KOEI Europe and US said that they have brought the passion to “horse racing fans and gamers who want to enjoy a sporting experience like no other.”

If the idea of starting a virtual career in horse racing is your idea of fun, then this is certainly for you.   You can rear and breed your own horses, as well as race them and become a tycoon in the horsey world.

With the introduction of Wii board, it should prove to be a little more fun for the few that own the game.  You’ll also be able to use the wii mote to whip, but if you do that, I’ll come find you and kick your ass.
