Yes, your ass. But first things first: Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party is the third game in the series. Coming to the Wii and DS, it brings over 65 mini-games.

If you've got a Balance Board, then you'll be able to use it with this game (can you see where this is going yet?). So basically, for some mini-games, you'll sit on the Balance Board and control it with your ass. A snowboarding mini-game was demonstrated at the UbiDays conference, showing someone controlling the game with their butt.

This isn't the first time butt control has been associated with gaming, but I'm pretty damn sure this is the first time it'll enter the mainstream market. And here was me thinking we couldn't look any more ridiculous playing the Wii than we already did.

That would be so awesome if you had like 4 balance boards lined up.

I liked the first one, pretty decent for a launch title. It makes sense that they would be using the Balance Board.
