New Wii Fitness Game Coming
If you're reading my ongoing series of updates, you'll know that I'm enjoying Nintendo's Wii Fit, and am actually seeing some results. However, one of the biggest complaints about the game is the focus on toning over aerobic workouts, and I totally agree. That may change, however, when Majesco releases Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2009 this holiday season. Now, I'm not much on ultimatums, and putting the 2009 after it makes it seem like there will be annual updates like Madden, but since Jillian Michaels is one of the coaches on The Biggest Loser, I'm intrigued. (She's the one on the right in the picture, but I'm hoping he's included as an alternative on-screen trainer!)
"I truly think this type of product will be instrumental in revolutionizing the fitness industry and will help combat the childhood obesity epidemic in this country," Michaels said.
JMFU2009 will use the balance board to combine solid gameplay with a fitness regimen, advice and exercise techniques. And I, for one, will welcome it. By Christmas time, I'll probably be bored to death of Wii Wit, and looking for something fresh. And while I appreciate what Wii Fit has done to tone my midsection, I'm looking forward to seeing how another developer can use the balance board with a stronger focus on weight loss instead of balance and posture.
