... MadCatz Wii Fit Battery Pack
After months of searching we finally managed to get hold of a Nintendo Wii Fit board back in July which was hugely popular with the whole family and used almost every second that the house was occupied.
For those who may be unfamiliar with the Nintendo Wii and the Wii fit balance board I will explain these briefly first. The Wii is a games console which uses a handheld remote for interactive play (simulating tennis etc). The Wii fit balance board is a rectangular board which the user stands on and it links up wirelessly to the Wii and is used to improve health through balance games, muscle and yoga poses and aerobic exercise games.

...master them both. I've played the game a total of 103 times (this was the count the last time I went on) and have a high score of 551 in advanced.
My next favourite game is table tilt - you move your body around in order to move a table on the screen which has holes in it. Your job is to manouver balls around the table and get them into the holes to progress to the next level. It seems easy but it can be quite challenging. I'm good at this game but my sister has the high score of 125. There are also two difficulty levels for this game.
Fit Cash
Every training game gets you Fit Cash - a measure of how much time you've spent on the Wii Fit. It doesn't always give you an accurate amount of minutes, though - for example, if you complete the 10 minute boxing exercise you actually get 13 minutes. Also most of the Yoga exercises are...
