 For the third straight holiday season, Rayman and the Rabbids will be coming to Wii. This time the series will introduce the new Nintendo peripheral, the Balance Board, to the comical Rabbids in Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party. The latest in the series will focus on the Rabbids conquest of television as they force Rayman to attempt to survive a week of their pop culture parodying antics.    

Including over 65 mini-games, the game will feature a variety of innovative uses of the Wii Remote, the Balance Board, and the combination of the two. As far as the Balance Board goes, Ubisoft has billed the game as  the first game in the world that you can play with your rear end   One of the confirmed mini-games is a variation of the dancing game from the previous games that makes use of the Wii Remote and Balance Board.    

Multiplayer can be played with four players simultaneously in co-op or battle mode. Players can also make use of the new party mode that is compatible with up to eight players in a turn-based fashion.    

The only online feature mentioned thus far focuses on  pimping  your bunny out and showing your friends online. Apparently there will be an online scoreboard for this feature.    

Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party for Wii is currently slated for a Holiday 2008 release in North America and will likely be rated E for Everyone.
