A new Wii 'diet' game will be the latest addition to Nintendo's line-up of lifestyle titles, according to a report from financial news group Bloomberg.

The report, issued following the strong performance of Nintendo's Japanese stock, makes mention of the diet-related software, which the company hopes will attract new users to the Wii much in the same way Dr Kawashima's Brain Training has done with DS.

No details were given beyond this, but putting on our big hat of speculation we imagine that Nintendo's diet title might be something in the vein of an aerobics game, encouraging the player to flail their arms in the air to burn off some of that excess lard.

Hopefully further details will be revealed when Nintendo lays out more of its next-gen plans at the Leipzig Games Convention next week.

This seems kind of obvious. I remember seeing a track running demo at the E3 presentation that could easily lend itself to something like this.

You could eat less chips and go out for more walks without even having to buy a game console.
