Nothing wrong with not buying it.

Its not really a game anyway.

WiiFit isnt much of a game if your looking for a game. Its more if a lifestyle program.

The first thing I've learnt from this game is that you can get a really good workout from hula hoops lol. I'm obsessed with that one!

Yoga for me is so weird, like the tree pose and stuff I suck so badly...humans aren't meant to bend like that lol, i'm really not flexible.

The jogging one kills me, running on the spot just nails my ankles...anyone else get that?

The WII isn't much of a gaming console as of what you're speaking off. You should know that Wii Fit was meant to be a minigame like many other ones. I say that Wii Fit is like Wii Sports, it contains games, but they're benificial to you. There's no halo on the Wii, so to many hardcore gamers its not a gaming console.

I believe that Wii Fit IS a game, because it contains minigames. A game is a game. Arcade games don't last for long and they're classified as games. Wii Fit does the same thing except for the yoga/muscle sections. The other two sections are games.

I got hubby to do the hula hoop and nearly chocked on my own tongue watching him. I realised that men don't have hips and can't wiggle like us girls, mind you he didn't get a bad score once he figured out how to keep the hoop off the ground.

I agree with the hula hooping one, I can't seem to get it :S I unlocked the one how you have to do right and left, but I cannot do the left way around. Does anyone else get a pain in their right side near the lung when they do this exercise???? I do... bad. lol I know i'm getting a workout though from it.

Yoga tree.... lol I remember when I first did that I couldnt even get my leg to rest on the side of my thigh. My pants were of a wierd material that made it slip. Just yesterday I tried the dog one in yoga I think, where you arch your back and keep your heels on the ground. She looked like a triangle, like a cat arching its back. I got yoga master, but my back didnt look like hers because im not flexable. I couldnt even put my heels on the ground cause it was like... ouch

Lol:D

I reckon they should have had a skipping one, but you cant jump on the board. It should have been you can do it on the ground and put the wii remote in the handle of the rope? I think that would be a good idea because skipping is really good for you

wii fit isn't a game. the mini games are to accompany the actual exercises. after all, if you're getting wii fit as a game and for the mini games, it defeats the purpose.

hehe I know your pain there, all my yoga poses are WAY off, and I couldn't keep my leg on my thigh either

My record for the hula hoops so far is 303 spins, I love it!!!
I've never ever been able to use one of those things as a kid, so it's nice to be good at the virtual version lol sad I know

Oh yeah super hula hoops, it depends on your stance.
Like I'm a "goofy footer" so I can spin left easier than right.

Not really. What if you're already fit like myself and just want to get better balance and burn off fat through aerobic activity. Think of it most people walk, run etc... that's all aerobic stuff. The muscle and yoga is just to improve muscle and flexability, not everyone does that. When people go on diets and try to exercise most do aerobic stuf to get the heart stimulated and beating. That burns the calories.

I think my record is like 247. I don't get though it says move your hips in a big circle, but when I do that it's too slow kinda thing. I should buy a hoop and use it while im doing it lol

i hula hoops, i got 313 last night, but gosh was tired afterwards.

And the dance/step one, first go felt so uncoordinated, then realised its easier just to do what they recommend and follow the mii characters.

With the Step Advanced I seem to have problems with the step where you "kick" instead of putting the foot down as it registers the step as OK not Perfect....

Do you have to put more weight on your toes for it to register the kick as a "Perfect" step?

The reason why it's so cheap is because that's the price its meant to be. You know the Australian dollar? Well there was a time where bascily the dollar was half the US dollar. So 50 cents Au = 1 dollar US. They haven't changed that. We are now 93 cents to the US dollar. But the market hasn't changed it so basicly thats all their profit. Thats why you see such big specials on wii fit, like Big W has it for 118, and it's usually 149?? That's a big price drop, but they're still getting around 40 dollars profit with that special from the Aussies

(re: step advance)It's just in the timing with the step-kick, at first I didn't realise that I had to kick and kept placing my foot down and I still registered as perfect. I noticed it prefers you to go slightly slower than faster to register a perfect reading though.

bigwiiwii, I still don't believe men can wiggle, you may prove me wrong by supplying a video of you in action.

The timing is a bit quirky on the stepping I think.

The board measures when you put your foot _down_ when stepping on to the board but measures when you lift your foot _up_ when stepping off it.

Naturally I seem to time my "foot down" with the beat but I think that means I tend to lift too early when stepping off the board.
