Wii Fit is going to be a cracking addition to the console
Abstract: Since you're reading this article, you might be wondering how good this game really is and if it's actually worth your money. If that's the case, I have both good and bad news for you. But don't worry too much; if you're serious about starting a new exerc...
Abstract: Cut off the sleeves on those tshirts and whip out the headband, Wii Fit will have you doing pushups, situps and yoga, but does it really get the body going or is it just an overhyped gimmick? Wii Fit for the Nintendo Wii, is another one of Nintendos ...
Balance Board shows a lot of promise, Nice variety of activities, Balance games are quite fun, Great tracking of BMI, weight, Wii Fit age, Nice Mii integration into certain activities
Too focused on weight and BMI as indicators of health, Gets terribly repetitive very quickly, No way to design a proper regimen, Minimal cardiovascular element, No multiplayer at all

Improves sense of balance, Easy setup and cute interface, Good mix of fun and exercise, Challenging and goal-oriented
Occasionally made us feel bad about ourselves, You cant set up a customized workout, Questionable fitness evaluation abilities, Only one board can be synced with a Wii at a time, *
The Balance Board is one of the coolest game controllers weve used, and it has lots of potential for applications beyond Wii Fits current crop of exercises and games. Wed love to see extension packs for Wii Fit with new games like surfing and ice sk...
Nintendo did it again. They have created very interesting device (product) that combines fun and real life exercise. It allows users to have fun and play games while staying physically active which actually redefines video games and breaks enrooted ...
