Wii jogging accessory widens reach

New Concept Gaming has announced the list of games compatible with its jOG accessory has passed the 100 mark, with more titles being added every week.
The jOG device is compatible with the Nintendo Wii that only allows character movement in a game when the player jogs on the spot. The idea is to encourage physical exercise whilst playing otherwise physically unchallenging games.
“The decision we made early in development to use ‘overlay’ technology has paid dividends as we see the compatibility list grow day by day,” explained Brendan Ludden, MD of New Concept Gaming.

“No other accessory in this field works with anywhere close to this number of games. While boredom is never far away with other fitness related peripherals, there will always be new fresh games coming through that will work perfectly with jOG, and with multiplayer fully supported too, the whole family can join in the fun”
The jOG works with any game that uses the Nunchuk joystick which immediately ensures its compatibility with most Wii titles, not just fitness related games such as Wii Fit and Mario and Sonic at the Olympics.
Games like Call of Duty 3 and Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition have been seen as a successful match with the jOG, where to avoid being shot by the enemy or ripped apart by zombie-like savages, you must get your own legs moving.
