Video: Wii Fit Preview
Ever since Nintendo announced Wii Fit, I've been eagerly snatching up every little morsel of information about it. But there ain't much. I still can't find a solid, confirmed release date, but it still looks like sometime in the spring. Which is foolish, because it would've been really useful in January to help everybody work off the holiday meals and keep their New Year's resolution. Or maybe that's just me. This trailer shows you a bunch of the mini-games and exercises, and does a pretty good job of explaining them all. What I found most intriguing is the jogging game, which doesn't use the balance board, but has you stuffing a Wiimote in your pocket. Clever. What will they think of next? I can't wait for this to come out. I'm sure that distracting myself with hula-hooping and snowboarding will help me firm up these love handles without even realizing I'm doing it!








I agree that having the player keep the Wiimote in his/her pocket while playing the jogging game is clever, but at the same time I'm dreading the new slew of Wiimote-related jokes (e.g., "Is that a Wiimote in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?")
