Skate It is probably the most promising of those games. It's being made by the same people who made .skate which took skateboarding game controls in an awesome new direction. They should be able to do something good with the Balance Board provided they put the effort into the game.
I'd be surprised if Nintendo didn't have a big release with major Balance Board support in the near future. Something like 1080 or Wave Race.
A golf game that used the Wiimote to swing and have the Balance Board recognize your shifts in leg balance generate power would be amazing if done right.
The great thing about Wii Fit is that it's probably going to end up selling 8+ million worldwide. That's a huge install-base for the Balance Board. It actually gives devs the justification to design games completely around using the Balance Board since a massive number of the Wii userbase has one. Like anything on the Wii, it has designed entirely around one control scheme and not just the Wiimote/Nunchuk and then tacking on Balance Board support (with some exceptions).
