Abstract: Game: Wii FitGenre: Exercise/BalancePlatform: Nintendo WiiWriting a review for Wii Fit is one of the strangest things I’ve had to do in my time at Gamervision. How do you score something that isn’t actually meant to be a game for a video game website? ...
Abstract: Does the Wii Fit have what it takes to get pulses racing? The Nintendo Wii console has already changed the face of gaming by creating an emerging casual gamers market where young and old can join in this traditionally teenage male-dominated world with ...

Some tactless messages; the yoga instructor can be a little snarky
The best implementation yet of good-for-you gaming thats actually fun
Sense of progress, good mix of exercises, doesnt feel like a trial
Assessment of ideal weights and body masses a bit generous The Final Word For those who are fairly sporty anyway, the Wii Fit may end up more of a check-and-balance device rather than a full-on trainer, as it seems not to have endurance tests and activ...

Tracks weight and body mass index; various genres of fitness games; tones muscles and improves balance; supports Wii Fit Channel function to check your personal progress.

Wii Fit will help you work up a sweat, but its not as smooth and fun a workout as youd probably like.
