Wii fit for Christmas gift?

psmd

I am thinking of getting Wii fit for someone for Christmas but have never used it. Does anyone have it? Like it? How does it work? Is there a difference between Wii and Wii Fit or is the Fit part just an add-on? Do you have to buy different programs for it? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Sounds like a fun present to me!

I have a Wii but not the Fit although I have used it before. It is just an add-on like other controllers and games have (such as the steering wheel for the racing games or the ball for the bowling games).

When I got a Wii it came with a bunch of sports games which can also help you with cardio. I think they are fun but have never calculated calories burned from them. There are lots of games that you can get which can help you with that purpose. When you buy the Wii Fit, it has it's own "games" but you can always get more for the Wii and log that exercise as well. I wanted to get the Wii Zumba game, but haven't yet.
