New Wii game, need gamer's opinions

sharkbball · 05-17-2007

Hello! I work for Prestige Corporation which is currently producing a new game for the Wii. We need your advice though. Video games are a billion dollar industry and have a culture all of their own. They also reach out to young people in a way no other media does. And one of the serious problems facing the youth of America is obesity. With fast food outlets like Burger King producing their own games, it is time for the health food industry to fight back. Our task is to design a game for the Nintendo Wii which promotes healthy eating and exercise. We need your advice on aspects of the game. What it should be about, how it should be played, what style video game should it be. Now is your one in a lifetime chance to help work on an video game that will go into production.

Thank You In Advance For Your Help!

Lenny

Sharkbball, do you mind elaborating a bit on who exactly Prestige Corporation are and what the limitations of said project are?

I'm afraid you likely won't find help here unless you give some more details on what exactly you're looking for and who exactly you're working for. What has Prestige Corporation done in the past that we might know? What type of development team do you have and what are they capable of?

The point is that most people are probably not taking this post seriously, and assume that this is a big waste of their time. Will people's ideas be rewarded in any way?

Honestly right from the start a game that is aimed at only making fat kids skinny isn't going to make anybody get off there rump to play it....People needs a game that is actually a game long exciting and something people dont want to put down.. i bought a Wii cause it could have been one of the best systems but all the game producers is aiming it at mini games where 1 days rental and your already tired of it wii sports was about the only good game there is and any game you make people that is over weight will find a way to do it from the couch... want advice make a real game and leave the weight loss to jenny cause if the kid owns a wii right now prolly already quit playing it from boredom and is outside playing real sports.. but on a side note... baseball fishing sports games if your going to make a game that is to get action going.. make it a competition where it isn't the same dumb stuff like the current dozen mini games people pays 50 bucks for and plays 5 minutes and says geeez what did i waste my parents money on ( yea right like they care)

This is (without a doubt) the longest run-on sentence that I have ever seen in my life... my eyes... they're burning... help...

I seriously had a good idea for this. I guess he doesn't want to hear it.

You can tell me it. I'll pretend to care for you!

Well, I heard rumors that the Japanese have something that attaches to your feet so you can play fighting games. So...

Never mind. Somebody is going to steal my idea and make a mint off of it. That will piss me off.

Just whisper it to me, no one will hear you then.

I kinda get what you're getting at, and I like where your mind's at.

I have thought of something similar to that, WET. Something like a Fifa game that has shoes or strips that go around your feet so you can make the kicking and dribbling motions for the soccer ball.

That would get kids to stand up and move around at least.
