Wii Fit Coming in May
The weirdest (and possibly coolest) accessory for the Nintendo Wii is coming to our shores on May 8.
The Wii Fit is a board that you perform exercises on: pushups, handstands, yoga, hula hoops (no, we’re not joking about that last one), whatever. The Fit and the Wii keep track your weight and body mass index, maintain a database of how many exercises you have performed and provide tutorials on proper fitness. There are even a few balance games like ski jump and tightrope walk you can play on it.
The Wii Fit will set you back $149.95, and no, you probably can’t claim it on your health insurance.

If your thinking about getting one first watch the Wii Fit Parody. A great laugh that does make it look stupid.
I played with it last night at the launch in the games, the muscle section, and I was probably the only journo there attempting the Yoga stuff. It’s actually very good.
Laugh all you want but it’s actually surprisingly fun. I play a lot of games and the short amount of time I spent with this already tells me it’s a winner.
Yes, I think the cost is fairly reasonable for us to buy.
Wii Fit is useful for working every muscle in the body including: abs, arms, back, chest, legs, gluteus maximus, and more through exercises and games: Yoga & Breathing Exercises, Muscle Strength & Toning Exercises, Flexibility Exercises, Balance Exercises, and Stress Reduction Exercises.
My 90 kg fat ass could use with a Wii Fit per cheek. I just preordered from Dick SMiths for $134
Preordered mine at Target – $109…
do you need the wii console that was first released before wii fit? Or can you just pay wii fit and start using it?
You’ll definitely need the Wii console before the Wii Fit.
