Games for the Wii for Exercise

Options
I just got a Wii... Welcome to the world, right?!
What are some good exercise games? I ordered the Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Wii Play, and a fishing one. (The fishing one is more for fun :) ) Any ideas would be awesome!! Thanks!

    All the Just Dance games are awesome and if you do several in a row, you will get out of breathe and work up a heck of a sweat! Me & my kiddo's (18 &10) love to make a workout out of playing it!! We each have our favorite songs/dances and take turns doing them together while the hubby sits back and makes fun of our moves! :laugh:

    I have been using just dance and love it. I've also tried ea active but I don't like it because i feel it's too picky about how you move the controllers and such

    I loved doing the EA Sports Active (whatever the newest version is). It's a great total body workout that incorporates cardio and weight/resistance training. EDIT: but yes it can be iffy on the controllers sometimes.

    I also love the Zumba Core game. The one before that was also pretty good.

    I don't know exactly how the WII version is, but I LOVE the Biggest Loser Workout game on my Kinect. They do make a Wii version!

    I love Just Dance too!

    I like my Wii Fit Plus (much better than Wii Fit).

    Might have to add EA Sports Active to my Christmas list!

    I do a Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum game(found it used at Game Stop for $5) It's a bootcamp type workout. It's a pretty intense workout for a game-I end up swearing at Jillian a lot!
