Some companies are combining the new balance sensing of the Wii Fit Balance Board and the motion sensing of Wii Remotes to create the first cheerleading games for the Wii.
Below are two of the first cheerleading games ever made on the Wii, We Cheer and All Star Cheer Squad. These two games are mainly aimed at younger girls, which is not that common in the world of video games. The new cheerleading games will also make extensive use of the Wii Fit Balance Board to detect steps and movements and will also rely heavily on the Wii Remotes’ motion-sensing controls to detect hand movements, spins, kicks, and poses.

One of the first cheerleading games to come out will be Wii Cheer, release date unknown at this time, created by Namco. We Cheer takes a fun and customizable approach to this new genre, it looks like the game will offer many different options so that each person who plays can have a unique experience.
The game uses real songs from some of the hottest music stars, from teen sensations like Hilary Duff and Aly and AJ to 70s disco bands. We Cheer also allows you to customize your cheerleading outfit, which some people can spend hours on. making. The game contains multiple modes depending on how you feel. You can choose to burn calories in the exercise mode or compete for the position of captain with a friend in the 2-player campaign mode. You can even compete with up to 4 players in Party mode to see who is the best cheerleader.
We encourage features:
* Hit Songs: Dance and cheer to the best music from artists past, present, and future.
* Infinite character customization – create the perfect competition outfit.
* Attractive modes: exercise mode, campaign mode, party mode.
* Really addictive gameplay: spin, kick, jump and dance with various choreographed routines.
All Star Cheerleading Squad
Another cheerleading game coming out is All Star Cheer Squad, release date Oct 20, 2008, created by THQ. All Star Cheer Squad goes all out and takes a “cheerleading experience” simulation approach. In this game you really follow a year in the life of a cheerleader. You’ll learn new joints, participate in practices, and even create your own routines to make the team and eventually become captain.
This game also seems to take a serious direction with the dancing, choreographed by Tony G. who also choreographed the movie Bring It On! So he can definitely expect his son to exercise.
All Star Cheer Squad Features:
* Use the Wii Fit Board to maintain balance and perform stunts
* Use the Wii Remote and nunchuck to perform dozens of real-world cheer and dance moves.
* Compete in teams and cheerleaders one on one
* Customize the appearance of your team, including the body, facial features, hair and outfits
* Learn new moves and choreograph your own cheer routines to music
This adds to a new wave of fitness games for Wii Fit. While these games aren’t entirely geared toward exercise, you can see how they would give you a good workout.
There aren’t that many “girl games” on the market either, but with these two cheerleading games coming out, hopefully people will really start to take a look at the genre, especially if these cheerleading games do well, which I think will. they will.
