Wii Fit is being released on May 19, 2008 and I am very excited. The reason I am so excited is because Wii is pretty much my only form of exercise. I don’t go to the gym. I don’t do aerobics or anything of the sort. My exercise pretty much consists of tennis on my Wii sports. That’s right, I’ve got pro status. And if I’m really feeling crazy, I’ll do some boxing. That really works up a sweat.

But with this new Wii Fit, there is so much more you can do!! You can do aerobics exercises, muscle conditioning, yoga, as well as game-like activities including soccer. I think this is a brilliant marketing move because it includes every member of the family in the videogame experience.

Parents are going to be a lot more willing to buy these game consoles for their kids if they know they’re going to be able to use it as well, and if they know it’s going to keep their kids more active.

But, since there are no kids at my house, I suppose this makes us look a little better. When people ask why I have a Wii, I can just tell them it’s for my workouts. This game is definitely worth having around.

Turn off the trashy TV and spend some time rocking out to the Wii with your family. Never have I heard of a game that actually brings people together in the same room. Absolutely genius.

Very, very neat game and one I am very much looking forward to. Perhaps I will be ready for swimsuit season a little earlier than anticipated, if at all….
