Anyone have Zumba fitness for the Wii, or Playstation? I'm more interested in purchasing it for the Wii b/c even though I have a PS3 I don't have the Move controllers and I don't want to make a separate purchase JUST to be able to play the game. Might as well use the wii-mote. Anyway if you do own it, which system do you own it for and how do you rate the game overall? It looks pretty cheesy and overpriced for what it is (retail $39.99) but online most of the reviews are fairly posititve about how good the workout is.

    I have the wii version. I <3 it cause there's different levels and stuff... but be aware that if you get it for the wii, the "party bar" that "goes up when you perfectly mimick the instructor" is a reaction to the remote moving. You can sit on your butt and shake the remote and be a "Zumba Pro". As long as your doing your best and working up a sweat, you'll get your money's worth outta the game. :)

    I have it for the PS3 and love it!!! But since you stated you do not want to buy all the Move stuff, I do have a friend that has Zumba for the Wii and she loves it as well. I think it is such a great "game"!!!!!

    I've been contemplating looking into that game as well... But I just need to know if there's alot of jumping and bouncing in it, since I live on a 2nd flood apartment and don't want my neighbor to complain about my fat butt shaking his roof again. :(

    I'm also using Just Dance 2 it's alotta fun and I use the Just Sweat mode and it tracks your daily exercise so its pretty cool. Oh and Proud Mary is one of the songs and after that song it feels like I ran a marathon lol But I really put my ALL into it.

    There is some jumping, yes. But you can treat that as a modification. You don't have to jump...you can step.
