Activision komt ook met fitness-game
Het is niet de titel die ons allemaal versteld zou staan van blijdschap, maar wel 'één van de' opkomende Wii-titels. De game staat vooralsnog enkel gepland voor Amerika, dus wellicht zal het spel hier nooit het daglicht zien. Toch willen we jullie graag informeren over Activisions "10 Minute Solution" voor de Wii. De game is gebaseerd op een bekende DVD-serie uit Amerika. 10 Minute Solutions laat je een trainer nadoen op je TV en kan zowel met als zonder Wii Balance Board worden gespeeld. De game kent drie verschillende categorieën: cardio boxing, mixed games en aerobics. Het doel is om steeds weer een workout samen te stellen van tien minuten waardoor de game uitermate geschikt zou zijn om 'even tussendoor' op te pakken. Met de schappelijke prijs van $19.99 (ongeveer €15) denkt Activision een gat in de markt op te vullen. Hieronder volgt het officiële, Amerikaanse persbericht[QUOTE]ACTIVISION PUBLISHING ANNOUNCES 10 MINUTE SOLUTION, AN UPCOMING VIDEO GAME FOR WiiTM BASED ON ANCHOR BAY ENTERTAINMENT’S HIT FITNESS DVDs Total-Body 10-Minute Workouts for a Healthier, Fitter You! MINNEAPOLIS, MN – MARCH 8, 2010 – Activision Publishing, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) today announced an agreement with Anchor Bay Entertainment to release 10 Minute Solution, a video game for Wii™ based on the popular exercise DVDs. Coming this Spring, 10 Minute Solution will bring focused exercise activities to fitness fans with busy schedules, in an affordable and fun way. “10 Minute Solution DVDs give users a unique fitness experience: customizable routines that fit into any lifestyle,” said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. “We’ve taken this concept and combined it with the interactivity of the Wii, creating a new kind of workout that gets results.” 10 Minute Solution combines the ease of the popular fitness DVDs with casual gaming fun. The game allows players to construct regimens from a wide variety of 10 minute routine blocks, organized into three main categories: cardio boxing, mixed games and aerobics. 10 Minute Solution is designed to captivate fitness enthusiasts and gamers alike with intense routines that play as a game, unlike other fitness games that simply have the player following a trainer on screen. The game is enhanced when played with the Wii Balance Board™, but still offers a fantastic workout without it. “Our legions of 10 Minute Solution DVD users will tell you these simple 10 minute exercises work,” said Julie Cartwright, SVP Marketing at Anchor Bay Entertainment. “We are ecstatic to be partnering with Activision to do something progressive in the fitness gaming space.” 10 Minute Solution will be available for $19.99, a fantastic value compared to the other Wii™ fitness game options. The game is not yet rated by the ESRB. For more information visit www.activision.com.[/QUOTE] En hier de bijbehorende screenshots:
