Why wait? The DIY Wii Balance Board (video) |
Ó
Mike's version of the board was built from around US$ 20 worth of hardware store materials, and uses the GlovePIE script to enable him to use it on Windows-based games. Here's a video demonstrating Mike's early tests using the snowboarding game Stoked Rider (Windows, Linux, and Mac OS ):
As you guys probably noticed, this kit is not planted on the ground like Nintendo's rig - Mike explains that it balances on a shaved (yes, shaved) tennis ball. The board will require the user to balance while playing, ensuring that guys who were hoping to literally sit this one out will still be giving their bum a workout.
That's the basic rundown on Mr. Sylvester's board hack - guys who think they're capable of following his lead and building their own board can drop by the read link for further instructions. And before we forget - make sure to invest in a helmet.

imagine being drunk using that ***** dats crazy.....
The Wii Balance Board doesn't tilt, it measures amount of force being applied to both sides and draws a conclusion based on that. As opposed to this which is essentially a board resting atop a joystick.
I dont know why everyone is calling this a hack. He more of less has a board sitting on a shaved tennis ball with a wiimote taped to it. No hacking of any kind was done.
