I suppose thats not bad if it keeps people entertained for 5 minutes.  I still think its a feeble idea though.

Cheaper than a games console...... Hard to argue with the Japanese sales figures. Would be ideal to get kids active anyway. Not enough of that these days.

Incidentaly, I watched a 15/16 year old run an 11.0 on the bleep test today. This is awesome frankly. Another 15/16 year old got 10.2. When I was 17 I got 10.4 so I was quite impressed by these youngsters. (sorry, bit random there lol )

Here's a fairly decent review.

A snippet that I found interesting,

To jog in Wii Fit you don’t use the Balance Board, instead you just have to put a Wii Remote in your pocket and then begin jogging in front of the TV like some crackpot who jogs in his living room.

The setting for jogging is lovely, mind - a peaceful park/island full of the other jogging Miis who live inside your Wii. There’s a guide jogger who you have to keep up with, and the course loops around until a goal is reached five minutes later. I find five minutes of jogging to be just a bit too long and I end up out of breath as I cross the finish line.

I can't wait for this to come out!!

I was curious how they were going to market Wii Fit on TV.  After seeing the advert I found it strangely scary.

It's lacking any information which is probably intended to provoke the viewer to research into it. Hopefully as we get closer to the release date, they'll end up showing some gameplay.

How did you pre purchase Wii Fit off Amazon???  It just allows me to sign up for a newsletter about its availability. I want to pre order!

I think this might be why:

Even though the game does not launch until the end of this month, shops and websites, including Amazon, have already stopped taking pre-orders, because they are concerned they will not be able to fulfil customers' demands.

Shopping website Kelkoo calculates that pre-orders have risen tenfold in the past month.
