    I've used Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus. Looking forward to the new Wii Fit U coming out early next year.

    Besides those though, no.

    I've used Wii Fit Plus, Zumba, Gold's Gym Dance Workout and Just Dance. I have to mix things up every once in a while and these games are perfect for that. I always work up a sweat!

    Golds Gym wii game (boxing) kicks my butt, I sweat like a beast lol. I do the exercises too, push-ups, leg lifts, reverse leg lifts and squats, and skipping. I find it more intense than the wii fit game but I like both. Just starting this weight loss journey and I'm not in great shape so I like that I can do it at my own pace in privacy of my own living room. There are many more games out there and I'm thinking about trying the Golds Gym dance one too and maybe Zumba although I am so not co-ordinated lol

    just dug out my wii fit. haven't used in it a really long time. played for about 35 minutes yesterday and the day before. it was fun, and better than doing nothing, but i didn't really find it comparable to riding my bike or using my elliptical. prob similar to walking around the neighborhood for 35 minutes, but more fun. if it is more than you would've done, then it works!

    Most everyone in my group of friends use Wii fit or Wii Fit Plus. We have all lost weight doing so. Collectively we have lost over 350 lbs. As for myself I have lost 18 lbs in Two months. It is a great way to get you up and moving. I work out about 1hr 15mins. a day and burn over 400 calories. Try it you'll like it. It will make a great addition to whatever program you choose to use.
