...Wii Fit, its been a great success for Nintendo, but is it really as good as it made out to be. In my opinion it defiantly is. So whilst everyone with the X-Box and PS3 laughs at you if you have one, its well worth it and even they will enioy it.
So this is a great product but what lets it down? Well there are two things that let it down, both of which are caused by nintendo. Firstly if you decided you want to get Wii Fit then you will spend hours just searching for one at the RRP. So whilst people moan about it not be amazing, they are missing the point because thousands of people want one but yet cant get one. Secondly the price is still very high, it really should have come down by now or of started off at a much lower price.
Thats the bad points, what about the good ones. Well i wouldnt say that its outstanding as a fitness...

Advantages: Easy way to keep fit. Disadvantages: Can't think of any.
...Last Christmas, my mum (a.k.a. "Santa") got the family a Wii Fit - hinting at my sister and I that we need to keep fit. I'm going to admit, I'm a bit fat. Now, I'm not one of those people you see in documentaries who can't get out of bed because they're huge but I could stand to lose a stone or two. I used to go to the gym twice a week but I found it too difficult and it was straining keeping up with my trainer, and I felt embarassed whenever I told him I couldn't do something. I did lose about half a stone though so I was happy about that. When I started using the Wii fit I was a bit anxious about trying it out because it had been a while since I'd been to the gym and I wasn't too keen to let my family see how unfit I was! However, I've been using it on-and-off since Christmas and it's great! It's been about a month since I last used it...

...Our Wii Fit was brought as a birthday present for my 9 year old brother, although to be honest it was probably more of a gift to us!!
What is a 'Wii Fit'?
Before explaining what a Wii Fit is, I will explain the equipment you will need for it. The Wii Fit works on a Nintendo Wii - the Wii is a games console, which uses a handheld remote for interactive play (simulating tennis etc). In addition to the games console you will need a Wii Fit balance board. This can be used with other games such as skiing etc but will initially be purchased with the Wii Fit software. The Wii fit balance board is a rectangular board, which the user stands on, and it links up wirelessly to the Wii and is used to improve health through balance games, muscle and yoga poses and aerobic exercise games. The Wii fit balance board measures and monitors...
