Maybe it's a poor product speil on Play, but this seems just like the jogging mini-game in Wii Fit. If you can pick up Wii Fit you get this, albeit for more money, but with a lot more games to play!

I was wondering what is was it is posted on ukhd and somebody on there says its like a dance type mat not sure if this is the case and it it is just a plug in or a game as well.

I dont know what it is lol, but I ordered one anyway:eek: ........... but Play are very easy to cancel if needs be, and I dont think they take the money until dispatch.

I'm pretty sure its a dance mat, anyone know if you can use it for other dancing games on the Wii if there are are any (!?)

Just as an aside, some of the new wii games are starting to utilise the wii fit board now.

The new Raving Rabbids will feature a game where you snowboard downhill sitting on the wii fit board

Is the Mat not the Family Trainer ?

I have pre ordered it, but may give the Jog a miss until there is a more detailed description of it.

from the description this sounds more like an accessory than a game!?!

I'm not sure if I misunderstood what Play had written before or whether they changed the description, but in any case the YouTube video posted by Pauly is the same item I linked to (sorry for doubting you Pauly!).

So in essence it's an add-on to go between the controller and nunchuck which effectively seems to move the Y axis as you "jog" the add-on box. It doesn't seem to track sideways movement, so personally I can't see the point in it - I certainly wouldn't want to have to run every time I ask my character to move in a game...!
