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!

    If you're into Zumba those games are good for workouts as well

    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!

    All the dancing games are a great workout!!! All the Just dances, Michael Jackson, Black Eye Peas, all the Zumbas. I do all these for the Wii and the Kinect!!! :bigsmile:
