The result of EA's attempt was astounding; it was heavily praised for it's slick style and simple but effective control scheme. Skate was only released for two of the three next-gen consoles with those being the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Many people have wanted a Wii version released but were unsure of how it will work as one thing that made the other version work well was the dual analogue control.

Today IGN.com released an article confirming the game for Nintendo Wii and DS consoles with the only information being the name 'Skate It'. The article was promptly removed, it is unknown if the information given was false or if IGN.com weren't legally available to release the information.

Nothing is known at this moment but one interesting rumour to be is the inclusion of balance board controls. As always, your thoughts?

probably not going to be a hit if it ends up requiring the balance board...

i guess we'll see

Played Skate on my friends PS3...fun and interactive game. Lets just hope they can carry the controls over to the Wii and keep them stable. Thanks for posting.

Yeah I enjoyed it form what I've played too, the controls will be a hard translation which is a big worry for me.

I am just hoping for any new Skateboarding games to be better than the latest Tony Hawk one, as I was really disappointed with Proving Ground. I loved everything before it Underground etc.

Hopefully if this does come out it won't be completely casualized to fit the boards play.

don't we all?

unfortunately, it seems that developers are only able to supply one or the other, never both.

if they use the balance board, it would be like worth buying ii fit just for the board.

i can see this working, hopefully they dont let us down
