Rumour: Ubisoft to Bring Your Shape to Wii U
Posted by James Newton
The shock
Ubisoft's Your Shape series rose to prominence on Kinect, but it stopped off on Wii first before leaping onto Microsoft's swanky sensor. Now it looks like the fitness series is ready to come back to Nintendo, with a Wii U version supposedly in the works.
According to a post from The Royalty Network (via Go Nintendo), Ubisoft has requested the song Evacuate the Dance Floor by Cascada for use in "Your Shape WiiU (sic).
The first Wii entry used a USB camera to track your movements — could Ubisoft ship something similar with its HD version, or will it use the existing Wii Balance Board combined with the Wii U controller's built-in camera? Time will tell.

@shingi_70 but the wiiU's camera may have kinect like abilities. most likely not nearly as fancy but it may be able to do something similar.

Thr Camera on the Wii U is only on the tablet so it couldn't full body scan.
The Kinect with the Wii Balance Board would be godly.
