We have a wii and my kids love it. The deal with the wii is that you have to get up and be active with it in order to make it work for help with your fitness. Many of the games you can play from the sitting position but they are alot more fun if you get up and play.

If there's an option to sit and play, then most probably I won't stand and run about anymore :D

That defeats the purpose of doing the wii for fitness if you just sit in play. Make sure that you find a few games that you like and switch them up so that you do not become bored with it. My two sons recommend the following games to everyone that come over to play. Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, Baseball and Boxing. All will give you a great cardio workout, if you get up and play them. :o)

I have a Wii and a Wiifit - I used to play it all the time but I got bored with it. However, I get on Wiifit about once a week as I have been exercising and dieting. I have learned some good exercises from it and I like that it helps me learn to balance better. It also keeps track of my weight and Body Mass Index so I don't have to write anything down. I would not get it for just weight loss - but if you like games too it wouldn't be a bad investment. There are some really good games out there - my favorite is still Mario Galaxy. New games are finally coming out so there are a lot of options. It also helps that the price has gone down since I got mine about a year ago. I would play more if I wasn't so busy trying to graduate from college...

Thank you for leaving a feedback here. I also worried that i would get bored with the game too soon. Similar like last time, i used to play Dance Dance Revolution alot but now has been stopped for quite some time and the player is just stay there with dust. Really quite a waste!

ok i have a wii for 1 year now and it was waste of my money really it has no good games anymore. Wiifit is okay, but i recommend you just play sports and run a lot and buy a exercise machine. Also sale the of wii is going down i wish i could buy a ps3 instead has such good games
