Wii Fit

Posted on February 21, 2008 by Gerald Pugliese
I’m 26 and I grew up and grew out of video games. As a kid I was all about Super Mario, Megaman, and Street Fighter II—I never thought I’d see the day when video games become associated with fitness. Introducing, Wii Fit. Reuters reports:
The Wii Fit, which will debut on May 19, will come with a weight-and-motion sensing device called the Wii Balance Board, the company said in a statement.


Nintendo is also planning to launch a new online service in the U.S. in May called WiiWare that will allow game publishers to distribute new titles over the Internet directly to users, instead of on discs.

Early WiiWare games will come from developers such as Square Enix, famous for the role-playing game franchise "Final Fantasy."
I have to admit, all this talk about the Wii and exercise has perked up my ears. I might have to dust off my subscription to Nintendo Power. I mean, just check out how cool the Wii Fit commercial is. Take a look:


How sweet is that? You can do Yoga on your Wii—awesome!
