review

If you come across a Wii Fit, PICK IT UP! They are going to be in BIG demand this Holiday Season, and the potential to make money off them is huge….here is a review if you are thinking of purchasing one for your own home!

Wii Fit takes the whole concept of games as exercise to a new level with the inclusion of a balance board peripheral that can tell you on the fly exactly how well–or how poorly–you’re doing with its various activities. As such, Nintendo is heavily marketing this innovative title as a mixture of fitness and fun, and for the most part it works. It’s a decent alternative for those bored with the repetitiveness of going to a gym or too self-conscious to join a yoga or aerobics class. Unfortunately, Wii Fit is hamstrung by some odd omissions (such as not being able to create your own program from the available exercises) and questionable health advice, limiting its effectiveness both as a fitness tool and as a game.

The Good

• Balance board is a great new peripheral
• Exercises will help your balance and strength
• Beats the repetitiveness of going to the gym
• Some fun balance board games
• Pleasant presentation throughout.

The Bad

• No way to create your own exercise program
• You’re forced to unlock most of the activities
• Some games are rather shallow
• Board is sensitive, but you can still cheat at exercises
• Health and fitness assessments can be problematic- Gamespot
