    I have wii fit plus, and EA active. I like the active one better. :)
    I heard that redbox is now renting games so you may want to check some out before you purchase so that you can find one you like
    Good luck....

    Here is my rating - on what I have:

    Wii Fit Plus - GREAT for starting out. Started with Advanced Step. Now use it still for Free run, Free Step, Strength exercises and Boxing
    EA Sports Active 2 - just received and have done a few times. Different than Wii Fit Plus - a good workout!
    Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2010 - Good workout - I use the Total Body 1 and 2 mostly
    Biggest Loser for Wii - tried it out early on. I have a bad knee and there are some things that I can't or should not do. Good though
    Zumba for Wii - NEW - Kicks my "behind" AND I have done the DVD's and take a weekly class. GREAT burn! Surprised that I burn as much as in the 60 min live class!

    I like some parts of the EA active plus workouts, like the step workout and the courses.

    Just Dance and Just Dance 2 are good.

    For boxing type workouts there is the Gold's Gym workout, it doesn't seem like a hard workout but you get a pretty good burn and your arms will be sore the next day.

    I didn't find the wii fit plus really worked me out. It was more just like playing a game and my hrm didn't really register a big calorie burn, but better than nothing.

    I sold the Jillian Micaels fitness ultimatum, it was too splotchy and I wasn't in the kind of shape to keep up with her, it was too up and down.

    That's because your not scared to cut loose in the privacy of your own home :-)

    I agree with all of the above games they are great but zumba is by far my favorite!!

    Oh and Just Dance is fun not as big of a burn but you do burn
