I love geography and I've spent many hours browsing Google Earth's globe.
I also love getting aerobic exercise using my Wii, but there are only so many times you can run around Wuhu Island before you start naming every tree.
So this is a call to Nintendo to integrate Google Earth into a new running game that lets you run x miles through a landscape that maps to the real world. Nintendo could overlay some 3D graphics on Google Earth's topology. It doesn't have to be as good as Google Map's and StreetView of course. I want to select my start and stop when I want and pick up where I left off.
I've often dreamed of cycling from coast to coast, or maybe hiking (or running). I would like Nintendo to help me fulfill my dream in my living room!

Sealchan, many of of here in the forum have expressed the same thoughts. Why not go cycling down the Champs Elise (though the traffic is a bit nuts near the Arc de Triumph) or maybe Mauai. I am not a programmer but this has to be do able and I think would make someone out there very very rich, but sadly so far no one has listened. I finished walking and built everything on the island but it was getting a bit tedious at the end. Doubt I would repeat it. Anyway time to get back on my cycle and pop some balloons
