Recently watched a DVD with someone who now owns a Nintendo Wii game console. The DVD was about something called the Wii Fit. I was intrigued about it since the picture had shown people exercising. The Wii Fit is designed to make exercising into a game of sorts. You have muscle workouts, aerobics, balance games, and even yoga. You actually have to earn points to unlock other activities. Starts with a weigh in and a bunch of questions about yourself. It comes with the Wii Balance Board show below.

Here is some more information and reviews about it:

I’m going to be very interested in trying it out. If it makes exercising more fun then I’m all about it. Should be released here on May 19, 2008 and supposedly retails for around $90.

Here is a nice video about it:
