Bought this for the wife, but she is already claiming to be bored with it, so my fat butt is the one getting most of the use out of it, and LOVING it. In reality, I think she is just frustrated because she thinks she should do much better than me at things like the Yoga “games”, but I think it is her stupid dude trainer that is at fault, mainly because I hate to think that I am a natural at Yoga like the game suggests. It is also possible that I am overloading the poor little sensors, giving a false representation of my skills, but I don’t care, it is still a ton of fun, even if it moans when I climb on top of it.
Normally, if a game has awkward controls and a difficult to use interface, I give up on it pretty quick because there are plenty of good games out there. This one though is more a reflection of my slovenliness, not crappy coding, so my training persists. I particularly enjoy the insight into my craptastic posture and balance, which probably goes a long way to explain why my back hurts whenever I run a marathon or something.
If you have a Wii, get the Wii Fit. If you don’t have a Wii, this alone would be hard to justify as a reason to buy it, but it is still money better spent than all that other crap you buy, especially if it makes you healthier so you can attract better quality friends.
