LOVE IT!!! Great way to sneak a little workout in while having fun. To be able to really enjoy this product--you have to learn to laught at yourself. Nothing like the soccer, dance, and holu hoop.
New Opportunities for Me October 6, 2009

I didn't get the Wii Fit with the expectations that it would MAKE me fit. I got it with the expectations that it would HELP to keep me fit. (I know that what I consume has a big effect on everything as well as exercise I do outside of the Wii Fit so I don't have unrealistic expectations that this is some kind of magic wand) I also got it so my family, who is not into fitness but likes games, can get some active fun.
My favorite thing on there is the running. I have been wanting to run for a long time. I tried, but, had to stop due to sore knees. Running with the Wii Fit is so great! It's basically running in place-but it's very low impact and gives me the benefits of running (cardio) yet doesn't bother me physically. It's not weather dependent either-and so it opens up good exercise opportunities to me! I love to see the scenery and having the dog be my guide is kind of fun sometimes, too! I like that I can go for a few minutes or even in half hour chunks!
The hula hoop also is good to bring up your heart rate-though the games aren't long enough for anything significant. It's just good fun!
The yoga and strength stuff is okay-but I get a better workout with my exercise DVDs. If someone doesn't have DVDs to use, they might like this.
I do like to do these exercises in between running.
My family enjoys all of the games and it's a good addition to our Wii. It's well worth the money, IMO. Can't wait to try EA active as a supplement!
Cons: As with most stuff, after the novelty fades, so will the interest-so pace yourself with this! :) It helps that you have to unlock games as you go-so the novelty lasts longer and you have fun working to earn new games!
I also dislike that the Wii Fit has made fun of me a couple of times about my balance asking if I trip over my own feet. It also lectured me about gaining 1.5 pounds when, the day before, I had lost 1.8 and it told me that due to changes in our bodies every day, our weight could be +- two pounds. The way I saw it, I was still less 0.3 less than the day before that. It was grilling me as to why I had gained weight and gave me multiple choice answers to pick from such as if I had been eating too much, not exercising enough etc. Before grilling someone, it should take a look at a week or two and average it out. I suppose this could help some people if they are gaining weight-but it was just annoying to me, under the circumstances.
 Unworkable over the long term October 5, 2009

Although some of the games and exercises on this product are good, the product is simply unsustainable over the long term. The major flaw in the program is that there is excessive downtime. After each activity of 1 or two minutes, there is are a number of seconds in which the trainer "talks" to you, repeating generally useless information. After that, the "score" is posted and ranked against your prior scores, and then your wii fit "credits" for the activity (one or two minutes) are dropped into a bank. The entire process consumes an unnecessary 20 seconds. Then, there is no quick way to begin another activity: you must return to the menu and slowly select and enter the next activity. Since each activity is only a minute or two long, the whole thing is unsustainable.
This is a good idea, but until the basic design flaw is cured, the product is simply too poorly executed to really be useful. Wish I could say otherwise . . . .
