I love a good patent story, I love my Nintendo Wii and I love bouncy cushions. However, it is a rare thing to be able to write a news story which covers all three. Yet it would appear that Nintendo has, indeed, filed a European patent for a bouncy cushion for the Wii.

User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars This cover is great!
I ordered the clear cover and I love it. It keeps my Wii Fit balance board clean and was easy to put on the balance board. I don’t know how others had a problem putting it on the balance board, but mine was easy to “install” and didn’t show any signs of ripping or tearing. I was not overly gentle with it either =) And, it cushions the balance board slightly, which has resulted in less fatigue for my family while doing Wii Fit. I’m impressed with this product, especially for the price. I highly recommend it!

5 Stars great cover
I love this silicone cover. It went on really easy, and it really does glow in the dark. It’s been great to keep our fit board clean. It’s easy to wipe off. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has the wii fit.

5 Stars worth the money
My whole family (ages 8-45) have enjoyed this product immensely for 2 months now. We each have our favorite uses, but have all had fun competing against one another for 1st place in each WII Fit Sport category and have been able to get a moderately aerobic workout when desired. Especially good with We Ski by Namco.
