    DDR is one of my most favorite cardio exercises, i could play DDR on the wii every night for hours, if it didn't annoy all the people in my house. I dont know about wii fit, i imagine the workout is only as good as the effort you put into it.

    We seriously need DDR to come up with new disks. Unless someone knows something different, ever since Wii U was introduced, they have discontinued DDR and I'm getting tired of the same old music (and I have all of the disks). Let's start a petition!! LOL

    i went through all the Wii discs, and the Xbox discs too

    We have all the Just Dance discs and I especially think the 2014 and 2015 versions make a great workout! We also have some of the Wii Fit and Wii Cheer but don't feel you get that much of a workout with them. Plus it's something you can do at home if you can't get outside, to the gym, etc.

    I use the WII with the balance board and find it works well when I can't go swim. It has helped my balance issues.

    I use My Fitness Coach on the Wii, the original edition not the second one (which I hear sucks). It is an awesome exercise program especially if you have some equipement at home like free weights, a step or a balance ball. You can choose a focus for every work out (upper body, lower body, core, flexibility). The cardio part is HIIT especially if you have a HRM and somehow the avatar knows exactly when to yell out "move move move" or "push it"! Plus she has a sense of humour (eventhough it gets a little old after 150+ workouts with her).

    I also like the cardio boxing game from Gold's Gym for the Wii although honestly lately I simply use MyFitness Coach on the Wii and Zumba on the XBOX.

    Other fitness Wii games that I have but don't use: EA active series, Walk it out (cute I finished it and it is not enough exercise for me but you can play it with 2 people so my 8 year old and I have fun walking around his neighbourhood sometimes), the DDR games (but my 11 year old is just too good for me!)

    I have other games for the XBOX. I love the convenience and variety of exergaming and am always looking for new MFP friends :)

    Forgot to mention we have 2 Wii Zumba discs if you like that kind of thing. They're my DD's. I didn't really care for it. The routines were harder to work out with than the Just Dance discs.
