Even though the jogging in Wii Fit is a pretty nifty feature, I’m sure I’m not the only one that gets tired of the island by now so its nice to see a Japanese modder has come out with a new idea which combines the Wiimotes controls and Google Maps, allowing the user to jog around Tokyo. The idea, for those unfamiliar with the feature in Wii Fit, asks the user to put a Wiimote in their pocket and run on the spot, this then is interpreted by the machine and the map moves forward slowly as if you were running outside.

Check out the video below to see it in motion (its probably a good idea to expand the video as the text is quite small). While the mod isn’t perfect, its definitely a feature heading in the right direction.
