Shaun White Skateboarding Supports the Wii Balance Board, we learn today.

We've long suspected it would be the case, but Ubisoft has confirmed that the Flying Tomato's latest Wii outing will allow shift players from the slopes to the streets, allowing them to pull off a myriad of tricks atop of Nintendo's versatile white slab.

Players will discover a deserted city, empty except for a few holdouts who are thrilled to have the city to themselves.

Through their skating players can transform the dull and gray city into a thriving metropolis by extending handrails into endless grinds, carving alleys into half pipes, morphing streets into ramps and much more.

Shawn Johnson Gymnastics supports the Wii Balance Board, we learn today.

Backed by the Olympic silver medallist, Johnson is described as an icon of the sport by developer Zoo Games, explaining that she has worked closely to provide extremely realistic gameplay.

"Shawn is one of the most decorated and gifted athletes in the world, and bringing her skill and knowledge of the sport to this title sets a new level of realism for video games," said Mark Seremet, CEO of Zoo Games. "We are very fortunate to work with someone who is as dedicated to her craft as we are to ours, and the end result will reflect that dedication when the game hits store shelves this fall."
