Advantages: Great fun, whole family can get involved, helps to keep you fit Disadvantages: It is quite expensive
My boyfriend and I eventually gave in and bought ourselves a Wii about 6 months ago. Then, on my birthday back in May, my parents bought me the Wii Fit. Since then, we have used it most evenings and have had an awful lot of fun using it.
What Is A Wii Fit?
A Wii Fit is sort of like a fitness game which is used in conjunction with the Wii Games Console. There is the usual disc which you insert into the Wii console and also a 'Balance Board' which is just like a set of weighing scales. You need to stand on the balance board for the various exercises and games that you will take part in. The balance board is slightly different from a normal set of weighing scales because as well as being able to measure you weight, it can also judge how much weight you place on each foot and where you centre of gravity (COG) is.

Advantages: Fun for all ages Disadvantages: Not nice to see you're a fat bugger!

Advantages: Encourages people who may not have done excerise without the interaction of a console Disadvantages: You cannot record activity you took part in the day before
We purchased our Nintendo Wii at the beginning of May at Toys R Us as part of a bundle with four games of our choice for £239.99 - possibly the cheapest price around unless you are willing to put your faith in an ebay seller or shop. And the reason why we purchased the console? Wii Fit.
Wii Fit had the critics talking way before it hit the shops, partly because of it's innovative technology, partly because of the price, and partly because of the effect it could have with regards to preventing an obese Britain. After traipsing around just about every shop we could think of, we finally tracked down and bought Wii Fit at Comet, for £69.99.
As we bought both the console and Wii Fit on the same day, the amount of money we had forked out for all the kit did come initially as a rather nasty shock, but the three of us are glad we made ...
