Coming May 21st
If life is all about balance, then Wii Fit is the ultimate primer. Over 40 games and activities will put your whole body through a balance-focused workout. The pressure-sensitive Wii Balance Board™ lets you control the motion, direction and action. Wii Fit is simple to use, and simply the most fun way to keep you, your family and friends fit.

• Personal Profile: Create your own personal profile and set goals, test your balance, and track your progress with daily workouts.
• Issue Fun Challenges: Challenge your family and friends to get in shape! Up to eight family members and friends can create their own profile and compare their progress.
• Fitness Monitor: Check your Body Mass Index (BMI) and learn your Wii Fit Age.

• Yoga: Find balance and flexibility through achieving perfect poses like the Half-Moon, Palm Tree, Warrior and many others.
• Balance Games: Get into the action with fun, balance-based games. Lean left or right to block soccer balls or snowboard down a slalom course!
• Aerobics: Get your heart pumping with fun, interactive aerobic exercises. Land a punch with rhythm boxing or swivel your hips while twirling a Hula Hoop* on screen.
• Strength Training: Put your strength to the test with muscle-toning exercises like lunges, push-ups and torso twists.

I gota get me one of these. We have a Wii and I am always complaining that it is a great upper body work out, but they need something for the lower body too. Between Baseball,Bowling, Golf, Boxing and the current Wii-fit, my legs are idle. I can't wait for this. By the way my husband always scores age 26 on the current Wii -Fit " I wish!" LOL Thanks for the post- P.S. this would be a perfect Bithday gift for me. Hint hint.

I am so happy I bought a Wii for my son at Christmas. The problem now is that he probably will never see it again after May 21. lol

I heard it was supposed to be around $99?

Bet they will be here and gone quickly!

Went to Future Shop today. They got a delivery this morning but by the time I got there at around 4 pm they were all gone. Tried EB Games but they didn't have any either. I think this is going to be the next hot one. Apparently you can snowboard, Box, Hula-Hoop, Calculate your BMI and do all sorts of strenthing and balance exercises. With all this we could say "Wii -Fit"

Here is one moms version of how it actually works on the BMI factors anyhow. Looks cooler than I thought it would.

I am looking for this too!!! Sold out in half an hour everywhere!!!! Arrrghh!!!

I got a wii fit for my Birthday!! It is so cool. Harder than it looks though. Tried it last night and again today. I guess I am in pretty bad shape, because my knees are killing me. The step program is a good little work out and I haven't hoola-hooped like this since I was a kid. Yoga is really neat and the slolam skiing and ski jump are fun too. The more you do, the more you unlock. So there is a total of 40 different exercises you can do. Lots of central balancing games too, which are very difficult after you have had a few Birthday cocktails. LOL. I think I am going to get a lot of use out of this one.

OMG cheetah both of us are sore i can't even think about playing right now gess i shouldn't have played for 2 hours first time with little break. My favorite games on it so far are hula hoop and the step-up I have unlocked 3 of them And one of them is 10 minutes and you canm change the channel and watch tv while doing step ups and the wii remote tells you or gives you a beat to follow and after a while it tells you something like "you have reached 100 steps, way to go>" bUt still
