Wow to the Wii Fit
On a very unusual purchasing whim, my girlfriend decided to get the new Wii Fit. Now, for those of you who don’t know what this is, it is a game for the nintendo wii which contains many mini games revolving around your balance. It comes with this impressive ‘balance board’ that senses your movements and balance which is then used to score you on the games/exercises. It’s pretty high tech shit.
Anyhoo, I found myself actually sweating while playing this game. What a fucking great idea from nintendo to turn gaming into something that is actually beneficial to the gamer. The yoga exercises are a lot tougher than they look and the strength exercises are ridiculously hard. There are, of course, a lot of fun ones in wii fit like a soccer mini game where you hafta headbutt thesoccer balls being thrown at you; it’s funny cause you lose points when you get hit with shoes and panda heads which they throw at you, too.
Very very fun game and another revolution by nintendo. I really recommend the wii fit; just make sure you’re wearing stretchable material as playing this game in blue jeans is impossible.

Weird. Not 5 minutes after I read your glowing review I saw a commercial for this on T.V. They showed some kid playing the soccer ball game too. Makes me want to go out and get one except for two things:
1) My three year old would either devastate the equipment, or, fall in love with it and ignore his parents for evermore and…
2) I ain’t gotz no money.
