I'm starting to look into the video game systems for working out. I haven't really started yet, but I wanted people's opinions. I see the videos advertised on Biggest Loser, and I know Zumba has one for one of the systems. What's your favorite?

The last video game system I had was the original Nintendo back in the 90s, LOL, so I have no idea which is best or has the best variety of workout games.

Thanks!

    I like Xbox 360 with Kinect

    All based on your own movement, no controller needed like the Wii.

    I have an Xbox 360 with Kinect. Really kinda fun to play their adventures game and there are quite a few exercise programs as well.

    We wanted to get Xbox with kinnect but heard from the game store you need lots of room for it to register correctly.

    We already had a wii so I got wii fit plus with balance board, then got a game called Walk it out, and recently got Golds Gymm Cardio. It is mostly boxing but I love the rythm boxing on wii fit so got this. Love it so far. I am not coordinated enough for Zumba-jus not my thing but others LOVe it.

    I love xbox kinect. Your Shape Fitness Evolved. It has multiple workout for men and women. You can use weights, choose to do cardio, toning, etc. It has personal training, present fitness classes, and gym games. I have not gotten bored yet. It also lets you know if you are doing the exercise correctly. I have tried many different types of workout activities and this is by far my favorite. And not having a remote is a bonus.

    I completely agree...Xbox 360 with Kinect is AWESOME!!! I have one and the Fitness workout I do kicks my butt. It is a great workout...and there are a LOT of different options, games, workouts you can do.

    I think they have Zumba and Dance Games as well, but I don't have those. I do just the fitness ones. Happy games system hunting

    I really love exercising with the Wii! EA Sports Active 2 is really great, but there are a lot of other "exercising" games for the wii! I also like your shape it's with a camera and it works very good! I also have a boxing game, the Wii Fit, ...

    My Wii Fit Plus is the best gift I ever received! I use it to weigh myself, do yoga, aerobic training and I'm thinking about upgrading to a EA Sports package for an ever greater challenge.
    Good luck in your weight loss goal.
