***Wii Fit Information***


The active-play phenomenon started by Wii Sports now spreads to your whole body thanks to the pressure-sensitive Wii Balance Board (name not final), which comes packed with Wii Fit. The board is used for an extensive array of fun and dynamic activities, including aerobics, yoga, muscle stretches and games. Many of these activities focus towards providing a "core" workout, a popular exercise method that emphasizes slower, controlled motions. Family members will have fun staying active and talking about and comparing their results and progress on a new channel on the Wii Menu.

***Wii Fit Wiki Info***


Wii Fit (known as Wii Fitness in EU territories)[4] is an upcoming video game for the Wii console, currently in development by Nintendo. Previously revealed under the code name Wii Health Pack,[5] it was announced under its current title at Nintendo's E3 press conference on July 11, 2007 by famed video game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. At Nintendo's media briefing, it was demonstrated by Miyamoto himself, Reggie Fils-Aime and other participants. Like the rest of the Wii Series, Wii Fit will integrate Miis into its presentation and gameplay.[6] The game is designed to function with the Wii Balance Board peripheral and is an example of exergaming. The game is set for release in Japan on December 1, 2007 for a price of 8,800 yen (roughly $75 U.S.). Wii Fit will arrive in the U.S. and Europe sometime in early 2008.

Good post my friend, I'll definitely be getting it myself - I think it goes for a lot of us when I say we need something like this :D
 
Very original

Funny how people laughed at the concept of the wii yet its smacking around everything else in sales. I can see wii fit being a big hit as well.


Just as people sniffed at the idea of the Brain Training game on the DS. Now look how many clones of that are about and how successful it has been for Nintendo.

No i agree, its a great machine for the kids and ladies.

I can see it being a big hit at fat fighters :p
 
It's easy when your product is half the price (sometimes even more) than the competition.

Well there was nothing stopping sony and MS from not making on "uber zomg 1337 spec machine". They chose their way nintendo chose theirs, nintendos raking in the cash while ms and sony aren't.
 
If you havnt got anything constructive to say after i have tried to find all this information then dont even bother, making no effort to the world.
 
I was going to say, is there any chance that there will be any snowboarding or skiing games coming out with the wiifit board. That to me would be the single greatets ever invention for games consoles.

What are the specs of the board?
