Wii Fit Dated and Priced for Australia!
Wii Fit, the game that is set to really shake up what you do with your Wii has finally been dated for Australia. The pack of both game and Wii Fit Board is set to hit our shores May 8th.

After working out your Wii Fit Age, you'll be able to jump into muscle work outs, aerobic exercises, yoga or balance games.

Put your strength to the test with the muscle workouts. Your on-screen instructor will guide you through muscle-toning exercises such as torso twists, arm and leg lifts rowing squats, or try one of the challenges such as the push-up challenge.

Get your heart pumping with aerobic exercises including super hula hoop, advanced step, rhythm boxing and basic run. Or work on your balance and flexibility with yoga poses like deep breathing, tree, sun salutation and half moon.

The balance games include soccer heading, ski jump, tightrope walk and bubble balance among others, and allow you to focus on your balance whilst having fun.

Wii Fit can help you to burn calories, work out your muscles, improve your balance or learn to stretch and relax with yoga poses. The Wii Balance Board gauges exactly where your balance and body mass are placed, so your on-screen instructor ensures you perform every exercise correctly. You can even pick and choose your exercises to ensure training remains fun! As you exercise, Wii Fit tracks your progress and unlocks additional exercises for you as you go.

You can also monitor your exercise regime, as up to eight people can store and compare their Wii Fit data. Your data is presented in a graph so you can easily track and compare how you are going. If you are not the competitive type, you can always lock this component and keep your statistics a secret! Wii Fit also comes with the Wii Fit Channel, which gives you quick access to your daily progress.

Wii Fit retails for $149.95 and is available at all major retailers.

Foetoid said: WTF! Its ok to pay $150 for GH3 but not this? You all sound so stupid. The balance board is a fairly advanced piece of pressure sensitive hardware, $150 is NOT overpriced. The balance board is probably worth more than a Wiimote, which are $70. So if the board is worth $90 or $100, then you're only paying $50 - $60 for the game itself. It is very fair pricing, get over it!



Exactly what I said!! mywii.com.au/

People really need to think about what they are actually getting for their money instead of going "well thats a rip off" straight away.

surely it'll be available for less than $150 at release... $110-$130 wouldn't be too bad.

for those thinking that it might be a fad that wears thin after a while (like the exercise bike, ab cruncher and stepper i have stashed away in the garage LOL), don't think for a second that other nintendo and 3rd party games won't make use of the Wii Fit board in future... think of it as an 'investment' for future games

Where you pre-ordering from and what sort of price is it?

Edit: None of the sites I searched even have it listed as a "maybe" pre-order let alone have it listed at all!!
