Thats a possibility, I wonder what would happen with a tsunami.What the heck? A balance board with a rumble accessory? Is there going to be a surfing game where it rumbles when riding a wave?

At e3 2011, the charge port was at the top, covered by a piece of silicone.It sort of looks like an e-SATA port for some reason, although it's not exactly the same shape, it's probably for charging.
As for the Balance board add on, yeah, I can see some games that could make use of it, how about a horror game where you walk around a house using the balance board, and something suddenly graps your feet causing the board, and not the controller to vibrate.

That model also still had a connection port on the bottom of the unit, though I thought it looked more like the one on the wiimote.

Ohgods I can see more than one person flailing off their board. I don't think having a raised platform you're standing on spontaneously rumble while something scares you is very safe. xDhow about a horror game where you walk around a house using the balance board, and something suddenly graps your feet causing the board, and not the controller to vibrate.

I can't wait to see what uses it'll have though. Hopefully something decent.

(Disaster is a game about the end of the world, hence earthquakes)
