According to online gaming publication, Siliconera, Nintendo have rather amusingly registered a patent with the European Patent Database for a inflatable horse accessory.

The Wii Horseback Riding Saddle is apparently an inflatable saddle with a pouch where players can insert the Wii Remote. Players can then hold the Nunchuck up as a set of reins or “a raised hand for balance as in Bronco riding, a lasso, a sword or other weapon”.
