Balance Board usage confirmed for Winter Sports 2, Ski and Shoot

The upcoming Nintendo Wii games that will make future use of the Balance Board accessory just keep on coming this week. Developer RTL Games is the latest to enter the fray, announcing that both Winter Sports 2 - The Next Challenge and Ski and Shoot will use the weight-sensitive device.

Sirus Ahmadi, CEO of Conspiracy Entertainment, who are publishing the titles said:

'Winter Sports 2' and 'Ski and Shoot' will both utilize the Wii Balance Board, a dual-sensor wireless board that can detect the weight and balance of its users. This added feature favorably positions us to fill strong and emerging market demand in the next evolution of the Wii."

There is no further information on either game yet (both which are set for release in the fourth quarter of 2008), although the potential for Balance Board innovation in both events is obvious. Sitting down to control the bobsleigh, anyone?
