Generic Wii Fit Balance Board Is Cheap, Still Comes at a Cost [Gaming]
Gizmodo — ... almost an inch shallower front to back. I can't speak for everyone here, but my size 12s are already poking their way off Nintendo's board. I can't imagine using an even more cramped peripheral for Wii Fit. But should you be a Lilliputian, you may benefit from the electric blue non-slip surface. Like Lam. That guy might love this thing.

(Unless you’re a paranoid parent, afraid to let the kids play outside because there’s Unknown Unknowns out there.) Score one for the Wii, then. via Kotaku
