thinking about this all day

what would everyone think of "Ruben Lenten's Pro Kiteboarder" Instead of Tony Hawk Skateboarding, what kinds of features would you want for a kiteboarding video game??? Control style, tricks, kite sponsorships, locations(sorry hein), i think it would be awesome

i'm sure it would be quite popular with people who think about kiting a lot, bu never actually do it themselves.

There could be a meter somewhere that could build for your "pop", in the green would be the sweet spot for the highest boosts, sorta like golf games.

I've been thinking about this alot lately too. I'd think that one joystick for board control, one joystick for kite control would be pretty sick.

yeah, use the left and right for turning and up and down for depower, if they have a surfing and wakeboarding videogame i dont see why we shouldnt get one too

how bout .... I have played the kite game a coulpe times I think I will buy a board leash and come to rufus and try it for real. I like going big in the game so I will just buy one big kite since they have full depower..

If the game was on Wii you could use the controller as the bar, left, right, power, depower, then use the buttons for grabs and shit...not sure about the board though, is there a joystick on the controller?

Somebody should put Mario on this.

Why not have a board or some type of platform for the player to stand on for additional input. It would also be a source of exercise that some would not get otherwise.
