Played around with a friend's for a little bit, don't think it'll actually make you fit but it's pretty fun.

I have mine paid in full and am getting it when it hits my store today or tomorrow. It wont do much to make you fit, but it should be fun. It might also help people to start to get in shape.

I had the Wii when it first came out. It was fun at first, but by next Christmas I sold it because the novelty had worn off and I could still get $500 for my used system. It's a great for parties though.

The funny thing is, my gf's new office has one and NOW she plays it. I had it for an entire year and see flat out refused to play it.

My girlfriend has one and made me play it. I didn't find it that entertaining at the time, though I was kind of tired. I felt like it mainly developed balance since the workouts were not exactly strenuous.

I was pretty crap at it too. In the end, my girlfriend figured out that if I just stood there like a mannequin while she grabbed my legs and steered me around, my score would be significantly better.

Ha, of course.

I'm still on the fence, though I think it's a neat product. True, it's not going to turn you into an Adonis, but it does have some decent apps and, most importantly, it tracks results and makes a game of it. If there were more programs like this Americans would probably be much fitter.

I got it for my moms bday...just picked it up today in fact.

Honestly, I think it looks a little pointless as far as the workout aspect, but I am sure it is entertaining (most of the Wii stuff is).

Time will tell.
