Ubisoft rather likes money, and therefore is enamored by the best-selling Balance Board. Perhaps this is why the range of Balance Board-compatible minigames in Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party has been stretched, to the point where half of the 75 games will feature Balance Board support -- previously, that figure was one-third. We guess Ubisoft really wants to see you playing with your butt more, amirite lol?!
"Hilarity" aside, offering greater Balance Board compatibility makes perfect sense. There's a gap in the market for Balance Board games that aren't Wii Fit right now (only We Ski is currently on store shelves), and Balance Board owners are probably looking for something else to play, now they've perfected their Sun Salutation.

I wish Wii developers would stop confusing "fun" with "silliness". They're not the same thing.

What I wish is that Nintendo would make more than one game for their own accesories.
Wii Wheel -- Mario Kart
Wii Zapper -- Zelda's Crossbow
Balance Board -- Wii Fit
Wii Speak -- Animal Crossing
Motion Plus -- Wii Resort
They make all of these things convince the public to shell out their hard earned money then rely on developers to make games for it. When you know full well that they could make the best game ever that could combine everything that purchase. First person shooter that you use the Wii Zapper, Balance Board, and Wii Speak. Heck if I knew anything about programming this would be done already! I kind of went off my point, but 3rd party developers are cashing in on what makes money and that is kids and I have bought/rented plenty of games that I would never play, but my kids love.
