Quick View: Wii Fit is a revolutionary concept that combines video gaming with fitness. I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I preordered the bundle but, after several hours of using the program, I can honestly say it is well worth the money and a great fitness tool for just about anyone!

I liked the wii fit. I never was the type to work out, but i wanted to gain some better habits. When i heard about the wii fit i thought it would be a good way to get me into working out with out all the turn offs. Wii fit does a good job distracting you , making work seem like a game helps ALOT. First...

I love this!

It's alot of fun and the strength and yoga exercises are great! The irritating thing here: You have to pick and exercise....get your score...go back to the main menu....select the next exercise. Why in the would don't you have an option to "Do all available strength exercises" or "Highlight the ones you would like to do" I find myself not wanting to do many of them, because by the time I do one and go back into to do the next one my kids are naggin' me.

I love that it keeps track of your progess...but does it have to tell me I'm fat in front of every one? LOL

It does have a code so no...

You need to own a Wii console before you get this. It works with the console not by itself.

 wanted to get this because I was curious on exactly how much this would get you up and moving. Well you do and it is fun while you do it. The games are fun and you don't really pay attention to the workout that you are getting because you are focused on the games.

My daughters enjoy it but they are in their early teens. I would not recomend it for youngsters.You need to play the games for points to unlock other games that grow in difficultly. It may be hard for young children to get the movements in...

We bought the Wii fit board when it came out and I have played it everyday since. I wanted to give it several days before I wrote a review. If I had wrote this after playing it once, I would have rated it 5 stars, but I have found a few things I would change.

Wii Fit in a nutshell:
Wii fit is a "board" that comes with a fitness "game". The board is placed on the ground, and you stand on it. When you first play it, you will make a character mii, and it will take you through a balance test and give you your fitness age based off of your performance and your bmi. My first test had me 9 years older...

The Wii Fit is the best purchase that I've made in recent years.  It took me a long while to find one to purchase, but it was well worth the hunt.  Prior to acquiring the Fit, I was a couch potato for the most part.  My daily execise was playing outside with the dogs each day, but that wasn't enough to do much for me healthwise.  The Wii Fit provides a wonderful way to get the lazy me up and off the couch.  It's as amusing as video game playing, but provides exercises that help build strength, balance and weight loss.  With a combination of Yoga, Strength Training, Aerobics and Balance games,...

We purchased the Wii system a few months ago and as soon as I heard about Wii Fit I had to have it!  I mainly walk for exercise, have tried lots of fitness dvd's, but always get bored rather quickly.  I received the Wii Fit for my birthday and in one week I have lost 1.1 lbs and dropped my BMI by one point!  And that is just with exercise, not with dieting! 

The Wii Fit has over 40 different exercises and activities - a limited number are available at first and then as you complete more tasks, more open up.  It is so much fun, you don't even realize you are exercising, but you sure do break...

I heard about the Wii Fit game from my mother so I decided to make a trip over to see her and give the game a try. I never thought I would have liked it so much! I never thought you could bring exercising into video games to make it a lot of fun. I was so impressed that I spend the next two days hunting it down in stores so that I could get a copy of the game for my home.

Wii Fit has several different activities that you can do to achieve your weight goals. Since it said I am slightly overweight, I should focus on the Aerobics activities so that I can shed the pounds. My husband loves to play the...

3 days ago I purchased the Wii Fit unit for about $89.00 from a local Wal-Mart. I have to admit that when I first watched the demo, I thought it was going to be baby-ish and stupid.

Well let me tell you...I WAS WRONG! Yes, I admit it. As a non-fitness guru I thought I was going to be able to do the workouts with no issues. I thought they looked simple and don't get me wrong, they were. But the thing really makes you work and do them right.

It takes a little time to set the unit up..to answer the questions like your height and age and so on. Don't bother putting your weight in or lying about it...

 After much searching for my Wii Fit over the holidays we FINALLY got one. I was very skeptical at first but once I started using it I was very surprised. The game starts you off taking all your information like, height, build, age, activities etc. Then is weighs you and tells you where you are on the scale for your age and description and allows you to set a goal for weight loss if needed. Then is helps you keep track of your goals. The game rewards you when you meet goals and is very pleasant when training you. You have several different games to chose from, anything from Yoga and strength...

I thought that Nintendo had outdone themselves when they came out with the Wii.  Well, they have done it again with the recent release of the Wii Fit balance board and game. 

If you like exercising or even if you don't like exercising this is the game for you!  There is a range of different games on the disc including:  yogo, strength training, aerobics, and balance games.  My personal favorite is the ski jump although my kids keep beating me at it. 

You can unlock new games by spending time on the balance board and by doing well in a specific event.

The balance board serves a duel purpose...

The Wii Fit is a great invention.  A way to get tech geeks like me interested in basic excercises.  I occasionally get focused on an exercise regimen but usually am just a couch potato work-a-holic tech geek.  Although the feedback the game gives when you don't do well gets annoying and tired sometimes, overall I find this invention to be genius.  It will motivate people to get exercise and tone their bodies that may be otherwise lacking.  Of particular use is its ability to give feedback to you about your balance so during yoga and strength exercises, there is no hiding behind poor technique. ... review »

Over the past few years, I've become quite the couch potato.  My daily exercise included going up and down the stairs at work and trips back and forth to the fridge for a cold beverage.  When my family decided to run a "Cozumel Challenge" (our version of Biggest Loser) to prepare for our April trip to Mexico, I decided to join in on the fun and get started on my way back to a healthy lifestyle.  Enter the Wii Fit

     I have been (not so patiently) waiting for the Wii Fit to be available. I put a picture of it on my fridge. I stopped the Tivo on the commercials for it. I scoured the web for any hint of a store with one in stock. My anticipation and frustration built... Then, finally, I got an email that they were in stock. I clicked through to the site... This had happened before, by the time I got there, they were out again. But not this time! I almost couldn't believe it! It was going to ship! Woo Hoo! I really detest waiting, and I had already waited so long for the Wii... The wait for the Wii Fit... review »

Don't give up on getting fit. The Wii Fit really keeps you working towards your fitness/health goals in a fun and challenging way. It is an awesome motivational tool.

Watch your Mii change as your weight and height are turned in to BMI. Your Mii remains the same for all other games and activities you have it on, but on the Wii Fit program it changes to match your height and weight. You get a line graph to watch your progress. You can see how much time you spend on the Wii, how much weight you lose or gain, your Wii Fit age (daily balance test to see how fit you are), and you can even add outside...
