Smart Review

The active-play phenomenon started by Wii Sports now spreads to your whole body thanks to Wii Fit and the pressure-sensitive Wii Balance Board, which comes bundled with it. Used together players will experience an extensive array of fun, dynamic and surprisingly challenging activities, including aerobics, yoga, muscle stretches and balance oriented games. The focus of these activities is towards providing a "core" workout, a popular exercise method that emphasizes slower, controlled motions, but it's the fun approach to fitness of Wii Fit that will keep players hooked on fitness for years to come.

User Review

Normally I'm not a fan of running in place, but this game actually makes it fun for several reasons! First of all you get to run along interesting paths with fun visuals following your trainer/guide who periodically turns away to wave you on with encouragement. In addition, as you run, you pass or are passed by other runners--many are the Miis you created for the Wii games. It's fun to see your friend's Mii or son's Mii running by. If you don't want them to pass you just have to speed up! There are even dogs running around. My son found if you pass the guide after the dog passes him/her you get to follow the dog for the rest of the run!

This is a great game. I've used it everyday for the past week and hopefully the novelty won't wear off before the pounds do!
