    Hi! I use WiiFit plus when I can't go out running or on rest days. I got a sort of stool to raise the balance boardo to the height of a regular step and I usually do 10 minute super hula hop + 10 minute boxe + step dance: it makes about a half hour routine for 100 something calories.

    I also have EA Sport Active 2. This one is tougher and burns more calories. I combined all of the step routines in one for about 40 minutes exercise. It's fun!

    Is Active 2 good then? I have the first one and am thinking of getting #2.

    Version 2 is much better. You don't need to hold the controller for most exercises. There are a few exercises that have issues with the motion sensors but it wasn't a huge problem, just a minor annoyance. Overall it was a good program for us.

    we have just dance and dance dance revolution. they are both old enough you can get them pretty cheap from ebay or craig's list.
    just dance uses the controller and you move your hands more.
    DDR has an option to use the controller, but we don't. I prefer it though. i think i'm getting more of a burn moving my legs more.
    i also find it easier to follow along doing arrows than just dance.
    DDR uses dance mats, but they aren't expensive on ebay.
    they both have options to show how much calorie burning is going on.

    really, the best one to get is whatever is fun for you. that's the one you'll keep doing.
