Getting a wii

I just got a Wii Fit Plus for Christmas, and I'm liking it so far. I've heard people say it's easy to get bored with it, but I like it so far!

i have been having fun w/ my new wii fit plus.

I have Wii fit and Wii fit plus and enjoy . . . haven't gotten bored yet. Also Wii Sports and Sports Resorts are pretty active. A bonus is that my 11 year old likes to join in too. I got The Biggest Loser for Christmas and got discouraged right away because it wanted me to get down on my hands and knees a lot and I can't go that. I also have a portable pedaler, I can sit in any chair and pedal away while I am reading or watching tv and isn't doesn't bother my knees which riding a regular biike does. Good luck with whatever you do, any movement helps.

I love my Biggest Loser game, and I also like EA Active. For non-workout games, I like Super Mario Brothers, and Mario Party.

i got wii fit when it 1st came out and i played it once in a while. my 9 yr old likes it. but for me, with 4 kids i dont have much time for the wii and when i do i definately choose guitar hero over the wii fit any day!!! lol!! i would definately recommend guitar hero 3 (thats my fav!) also, id have to fight my son for the wii, as he is addicted to WWE Smackdown VS Raw!! lol..... good luck!

Heres my list as of now.

Wii fit plus.
Biggest loser.
Sports resort
Super mario
Mario party

Any other really good ones?

I've played sports resort before, I love it.

Guitar Hero!!!! and the sports one that comes with the wii is fun. bowling is fun and the boxing can tire u out!!

Carley...do you have a GameStop or other used game store near you? That's where I got my wii fit plus and balance board. The board was $59 compared to $99. Works just fine!

Santa got my three sons a Wii for Christmas this year. He answered my wishes as well because I have been wanting to get either the Wii Fit or the EA Active (or both). On Friday, I purchased the EA Active (it was only $50 & there is no balance board involved.) I absolutely love it so far. It has things on it that my children can do along with me. I have been working out at my local gym faithfully since mid-August. I do a 50-minute workout there called Turbo Kick, and I have a heart-rate monitor. I generally burn anywhere from 500-650 calories during that class (which I do 4-5 times per week.) Today, I did a 38-minute cardio/strength workout that is pre-programmed with the EA Active. I wore my heart rate monitor, and I burned 550 calories!!! It was a tough workout, but it was also lots of fun & did not seem like almost 40 minutes. There are easier and harder workouts to choose from, but since I've only had it for 2 days, I can't tell you much about the others. So far, the EA Active gets two thumbs up from me...cost-effective & it works!!!

i def suggest the wii ae active! i have been doing it for a little over a week now, and love it! it has boxing, tennis, basketball, and volleyball in it that can be put into your workout...you can either do a 30 day workout and not have to worry about planning it out or once you get used to what the different things are in it, you can form your own...i think its a lot of fun. also the wii bowling, boxing, golfing, tennis and baseball that comes with the wii are fun too! it keeps you going. and it doesnt make too much noise bc we live in the 2nd floor and always ask the guy if he can hear us with it and he said no...

I just got EA Active and its a good workout

My Fitness Coach:

Works without a board. You setup a personal fitness profile in which you start with a test to assess your fitness level. You choose exercise focus and time duration for each workout and it customizes each workout for you. It can use stair stepper, weights, HRM, stability ball but none are required to use the program. It will give you an idea of number of calories burned durning each workout at the end.

I would recommend against My Fitness Coach 2. It reviews horribly from people that have the first one.
