Nintendo Wii Fitness With Wii Fit
By Karen Bennett
Nintendo has announced a new fitness game Fit which is a full on exercise product set to give you more of a workout than Sports, while still retaining all the fun of gaming. Fit will help to keep you physically fit via a dedicated peripheral, a wireless balance board which comes with the game. There are over 40 different activities, including hula hooping, ski jumping and heading soccer balls.
The hula hooping consists of, as you‘d expect, gyrating your hips with a virtual hoop onscreen and then as the game progresses, characters will throw more hoops for you to catch and rotate as many times as you can until the time runs out.
The skiing game gives you two chances to make the longest jump you can whilst keeping your balance when landing. Players can increase speed by leaning forward, the more you lean the faster you‘ll go, and upon reaching the jump, you stand up straight ensuring your weight is evenly balanced for a good landing.
For the Football game, you will need to balance on the board moving from side to side whilst balls are fired at you to hit back on to the field and avoiding other objects that are thrown at you at the same time.
Training falls into 4 categories: Aerobics, muscle conditioning, yoga and balance games. Players can assign their height to a profile to measure body mass index and fitness age as well as monitor progress and record performance statistics.
The calorie busting fun could appeal to couch potato kids as well a non gamers, perhaps using the Nintendo as a slimming tool which would be a move into the lifestyle category rather than gaming, covering the market from another angle.
