Also you can clean it before you use it.

People in Europe and Japan have already had this awhile.
This guy made a blog about how he lost weight on Wii Fit so you just lost the excuse about how "it's a game, it won't lose me any weight" Wii Lost Weight |

I can't wait to get this.
When my Wii and I finally live in the same place once more I will get this game. When I visit my Wii in VA I like to do the boxing for half an hour a day. I'm sure that less eating out and more time with my Wii will help melt the pounds off of me. Oooh, so will being able to walk my puppy everyday! Oh yeah, I can't wait to spend more time w/my gf. |

In conclusion, Wii Fit works. But like any exercise it only works if the person using it is willing to put in the effort. I could have achieved the same results simply by doing sit-ups and push-ups everyday, and going for a run. In fact, that may have let me obtain even better results. From that guys blog: I'm actually not putting it down...it looks like it could help you yoga and stuff....but I don't think you'll get in shape doing that thing. |

that really doesn't look fun/exciting. most of that shit you can do without standing on a weird white box watching an animation. the other shit... well
it just doesn't look fun.

I don't think the argument for the game is that it will help you lose weight. Rather, it can help you prevent yourself from gaining any new weight, which
should be the better argument. You definitely won't come out of playing it looking like Matthew McConaughey or Jessica Alba, but at least you won't be
gaining the pounds you would have otherwise had if you had done nothing. Regardless, it looks like it'll be an extremely fun game which I'll end up
getting, although that $85 price tag is a looking like a total turnoff. Then again, GHIII set me back a similar amount, so I have no room to talk there.
And Tres, the boxing game is my absolute FAVORITE on Wii Sports. I could play that game for at least an hour and not be bored, as opposed to boxing, golf, tennis, and even baseball. |

Step Step Aerobics looks like <3.
I SERIOUSLY want this just for that game. The yoga looks fun too. I can do this weird yoga thing where you grab your ankles and push your head back. I can't do it all the way so your back is like levitating, but I can at least reach the ground. |

Seems kind of ironic that they have a weight limit on a device meant for people to use for weight loss. But I just wonder not so much about the weight limit as
much as the width of the thing. Some bigger people might simply find it a bit too narrow to stand on, wouldn't they?

All and all, I think it's a good thing and yes I know you can do all these things without the white box, but making it a game can motivate people and so I am all for it. America is full of fat people, we need all the motivation we can get. |

Did anyone go out and buy this today? I'm thinking about going to Best Buy after work to see if there are any remaining.

There were people lining up outside my local Best Buy this morning waiting for this game. I think they sold out within the first 30 minutes.

It was HARD to find. I just played a little before AI. Some of that stuff is tough. Of course I was out of shape even when I was a skinny little thing so
forget about now.
