The creator of the Wii fit acknowledged that while Wii Fit won't get you into "shape" it'll give you a damn good start. The main idea is to encourage people to work towards fitness goals and to have a better understanding of their posture and balance. Think Brain Age but instead of your mental ablities you're working on your physical abilities.
I've spent about 45 minutes with mine now and I've gotta admit that this thing is friggin awesome!
I wound up inviting my next door neighbor over to join in on the festivities so I could get his take on it. Both of us laughed our asses off at each other because not only will this thing kick your ass (Don't believe me... try yoga!) but you'll fall on your's quite often. I look forward to spending a good deal of time playing Wii Fit.
I'll be anxious to see how everyone else likes this thing. Just do yourselves a favor before getting on the balance board... stretch!!! I kinda overlooked doing so and now my legs and sides are feeling it. LOL!
