    Wii Fit?

    How many of you have picked this up? My wife and I saw it at Costco and got it a day or so after Christmas. I set it up this weekend and the entire family had a blast playing. I'll tell you what, I will never, ever make fun of someone doing yoga again. That ish kicked my ass! And oddly enough while I cannot hula-hoop in real life I am the hula-hoop master on Wii fit!

    Anyone else pick this up? If so, what are your thoughts?

    We have it from awhile go I keep telling myself I need to get back to it.

    I bought my son Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party which uses the Wii Fit board...

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eckjrN89DQo&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eckjrN89DQo&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    Hopefully we will try it out soon and report back... Right now they are addicted to Animal Crossing: City Folk... In fact I had to buy a second copy so they could play at the same time.

    I gave this to my daughter and she has only played it a few times so far. I have, on the other hand, played it quite a bit! I like the tight-rope game. Man that is hard. Oh, my physical age as determined by Wii Fit was 47!!!!

    I have toyed around with getting one for the wife and I. She just recently dropped a child and wrecked herself in the process. Sooooo, I am looking for a fun way to reintroduce her to the fitness aspects of life, haha. We usually try to find one activity to do together since I play hockey and box on my own. Skiing isnt constant enough so we usually suppliment with something like martial arts, running, yoga, core workout training, etc.

    I am thinking Wii Fit would be a fun and new thing I just wonder a) can we do it together, and b) will it be effective?

    When I was good and did it 5-6 times a week for 30min a day I lost 7ibs in about a month... I think it is a great program it just requires commitment.

    Had if for awhile, if I could just remember where we put it...

    We have had fun with it, but with all the slackers in my house no one hardly uses it. It is fun to mess with though. I may need to try and get a game that uses it to motivate us to get up off our duffs....

    Ditto. I can say I did well at the Hula Hoop game too. Maybe we need to have a little Hula Hoop tourney?

    I picked one up for my wife right before Christmas to give to her as a b-day gift (12/31). We were invited to her grandmother's for dinner with the rest of her family the weekend prior and her grandma had one. All of us played it and Amy absolutely loved it. She now uses it daily and loves it.

    We're looking forward to trying some other balance board compatible games soon too.
