    I love my Wii. I do a lot of Just Dance :) I enter it in MFP as "Dancing - modern, jazz, etc" for however long. So if you're doing the Wii Fit stuff, I would enter it into MFP as calisthenics, aerobics, etc.

    I doubt it's that accurate.

    I manually enter the Wii burn and assume it overestimates like MFP. Also, if you do the Yoga/Strength exercises, you're going to be way under MFP's estimate.
