Yeah I'm def getting that when it's out.
Kinda glad they didn't go with the balanceboard for this, and the controls with the Wiimote look like they could work really well.

IGN: I understand that the Wii version of the game will utilize the Wii balance board. Is this a mandatory option or will you be able to play Skate It without it? What sort of abilities will you be able to do with the Balance Board?

Scott Blackwood: Of course, you can play Skate without the Wii Balance Board, but you'd be missing out on a next level of immersiveness if you did. Hey, did that help sell Balance Boards…where's my cut? In all seriousness, the game plays super fun with or without the Balance Board, but if you want to really feel your carves and control your manuals, I'd advise you to skate a Balance Board version of the game. People that try it really seem to be digging it, and we're still discovering new and cool ways to integrate it daily.

Wow I take it back. Manualing with the balance board would be badass.

Let's see some in game footage please.

In game screens. Doesn't look much worse than skate did.

C'mon, skate looks way better than that! It doesn't matter much cause of the gameplay(It's all about GAMEPLAY!!!) and the whole flick a stick thingy.

Wtf are you talking about CDR, those look no where as near as good as the 360.

If you say so. I would find some skate screens to compare, but 99% of them are either prerendered or touched up.

[PicoDeath]

LOL.

There's a lot more on screen than on the Wii screen. Sure the textures don't look as good, obviously. But the player models don't look much different for example, in my opinion.
