Buy it...I own it for the Wii and the PS2 for no other reason then to support the company. I will do Okami eventually. Its just a matter of time to play it...its not a short game. 30 hours.
I agree. It was a hard call to recommend. I remember growing up in the NES era and video rental stores would have accessorises and systems you could rent. I wish this was rent-able.
Saw one of your reviews on Amazon and had to run (surf) over to You Tube to check out your other reviews. First, you are hysterical. You had me laughing out loud; thanks. But what I appreciated most was your honesty in reviewing these items.
If you don't know already, Wii Fit Plus is pretty much the same thing, only they have a few more menu options and a "Plus" section of games. Mind you that those "Plus" games are mostly balance-related, and with only one or two exceptions, I think they all blow. I only really like five or six games in the whole series, but I play those games routinely. It hasn't done anything for my weight, but I do feel better than before I got it, so I would recommend it.
Can you review Wii Fit Plus? It's way better and you can make your own work out routines which lets you use them in any order you want and just keep using the same routine many times if you want.
i have the game. i use it everyday for at least 20 minutes and around 1 hour on the weekends. its worked wonders for me!! ive lost my tummy fat and am starting to develop a six pack!!!!!! :D
Also, all exercises are unlocked at their easiest level when you start the game, so instead of earning new exercises, you earn a harder version of the first, which makes a lot more sense to me. There are new exercises, like bicycling, where you get to freely bycycle around the island for half an hour, plus recommenended routines to work towards certain goals, like losing weight. It also estimated how many calories you burn, and you can set a goal for how many you want to burn per day.
Mario lost a lot of weight. His weight is now pretty much average/normal/medium for his height. He looked almost skinny in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Smash Bros. Melee. I think his weight is fine the way it is and is now pretty close to Luigi's weight. Luigi is still a tad thinner than Mario. You should watch some of my videos I uploaded on RUclips and it proves how much weight Mario has lost over the years.
I love Zazon. It's pretty meditating and also gives a challenge by creating sounds that would kinda scare you. I didn't find it boring, but it's painful to sit.
oh god...its like choosing Mexican, American, or Chinese food. It just depends on what your in the mood for. Out of those choices I would say Okami. Then...Zack and Wiki, NMH, Driver, Wii Fit.
lol that was a horrible push up there in the beginning. as coach barnes (my highschool football coach) would say "Get your ass outta the air! this isnt prison!"
I really agree with this review. I personally lean slightly on the "don't bother" side, but only slightly - and partly because I don't know where the future of the Balance Board will take us. I haven't played the other Balance Board game that's out there yet - which is "We Ski" - but maybe you can review that some time.
I was able to stay with that zen thing to the end twice. Dunno if I should be proud that I can achieve inner peace and focus or ashamed that I'm great at sitting on the floor for 2 minutes
I don't know about fitness, but this might be useful for boxing games (a newl layer of interactivity). I know it works with Punch Out, but I hear it isn't sensitive at all.
@wiiviewr Really,that expensive. I got the game and I don't use it anymore since I use the Wii Fit Plus. But I probably got bored of it and stick up the upcoming future video games.
You should try reviewing Wii Fit Plus. Many of the things you had issues with in the game have changed. For example, now you can combine any yoga and stength exercises to create your own routine, and it will automatically be saved for you if you want to use it as an everyday routine.
My MAIN complaint on this game is the fact that the freaking board has to recaberlate every time you do a different game! It makes you play the game less often.
I have a wii and ps3 too, I have played wii sports and wiifit. I did not like wii fit from day one. When I played wii sports the only mini game worth playing to me was boxing, but I still got bored of the game within 2 to 3 weeks. so, I guess casual gaming just is'nt for me.
My sister did the whole zadzun one time, and it only lasts one minute until the candle burns out and you end the game. The main reason you might've gained 2 pounds is because you might've grown taller, in which case you should've put that in so your BMI would be better.
Did you know wiiviewr that there is a new game coming out called Rayman Raving Rabbids Party and it will use that the Wii Balance Bord on some mini games.
That's not the point. The main thing you are trying to do is to stay PERFECTLY still! It is almost impossible without cheating, at least for me. You sit on the wii board, and try to stay perfectly still. It is so sensitive that that is why I say it's nearly impossible. I'm sure people can do it, but I sure can't right now. The candle will flicker rapidly when you are off balance, and that's how you lose.
@brettjpw yes. Good point! Why is Nintendo trying to get you to loose weight, when their 2 most popular characters (Mario and bowser) aren't very much in shape. (Well maybe bowser can't help it because koopas are sort of built that way but Mario can! He's human!)
If you want a Fitness game buy ''EA Sports Active'' you can create your own workouts, it tells you how long the workout is and how many calories you will burn. Free leg strap and elastic band for exercises. THUMB UP SO PEOPLE CAN SEE!
I'd personally say DDR is a great excersize game. For my diet I have to burn a certain amount of calories a day and I'm able to do that within 1 hour of playing DDR. Of course you're dead tired afterward but at least you know that it's working.
This game is fun. I like doing the beggining and when ur done it tells u ur wii fit age which is cool. Cuz sumtimes I get so hyper just to c wat it is lol. I cant do pushups anymore since Ive been exercising with weights for five or four or six months cuz when I try to do it, JUST my right arm CRACKS....AND IT HURTS XD. Its located between my elbow and the bone above it. Its like this...1.....(Push Up)....2.....(push up.....CRACK.) Rofl Idk if im doing it wrong. I did it like dat 4ever&didnthurt
Buy it...I own it for the Wii and the PS2 for no other reason then to support the company.
I will do Okami eventually. Its just a matter of time to play it...its not a short game. 30 hours.
It's official, the Wiiviewer invited the T-pose. 0:26
I LOVE the Wii fit, I do it every evening and its fun and helps me get some exercise
He might be a youngster. I don't recognize Beatles songs since I don't listen to old music.
I agree. It was a hard call to recommend. I remember growing up in the NES era and video rental stores would have accessorises and systems you could rent. I wish this was rent-able.

I'm a hardcore gamer that owns a Wii and a ps3. I sometimes play this and Wii sports, they're pretty good.

It's for balance and body control. Just try sitting with correct posture while perfectly still and see if your legs don't start to twitch.
True that. Fit Plus is the product perfected (as it should have been all along).
I have the the wii fit and it's pretty fun, especially if you like to exercise and play games. I think the tilt game is my favorite.
I used to actually strap a 5-pound dumbell to my wiimote with elastics
lol
@mindmycheeseandqs
No, its 100,000.
Can you review Wii Fit Plus? It's way better and you can make your own work out routines which lets you use them in any order you want and just keep using the same routine many times if you want.
ur reviews are really good and quite funny LOL
best wii reviewer no best revier ever
i have the game. i use it everyday for at least 20 minutes and around 1 hour on the weekends. its worked wonders for me!! ive lost my tummy fat and am starting to develop a six pack!!!!!! :D
You're very funny (love the beginning). I love your reviews.
Also, all exercises are unlocked at their easiest level when you start the game, so instead of earning new exercises, you earn a harder version of the first, which makes a lot more sense to me.

BRILLIANT !!
you acctually tryed the water bottle exercise !!
great video !!
thumbs way up :D
the eye of the tiger part is funny
when you play Zazen, do you sit on the balance board or do you kneel on it ?
Wii Fit is pretty good. I am enjoying the workouts. I also am using Shaun White Snowboarding game on the balance board.
Mario lost a lot of weight. His weight is now pretty much average/normal/medium for his height. He looked almost skinny in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Smash Bros. Melee. I think his weight is fine the way it is and is now pretty close to Luigi's weight. Luigi is still a tad thinner than Mario.

I love Zazon. It's pretty meditating and also gives a challenge by creating sounds that would kinda scare you. I didn't find it boring, but it's painful to sit.
Well, "retry" is a good thing since you can repeat the exercise you haven't performed well.
I dont think its a full sequel, Its just called Wii Fit Plus, Just a few extra games really...
Great job on the review! I bought this game yesterday and I really like it ^_^
oh god...its like choosing Mexican, American, or Chinese food. It just depends on what your in the mood for.
Out of those choices I would say Okami.
Then...Zack and Wiki, NMH, Driver, Wii Fit.
So that's the music for Gold's cardio gym!
at 0:20
Since it needs you to stand on it I think it might be a waste. You can buy an exercise game for the wii that isn't $90.
lol that was a horrible push up there in the beginning. as coach barnes (my highschool football coach) would say "Get your ass outta the air! this isnt prison!"
I really agree with this review. I personally lean slightly on the "don't bother" side, but only slightly - and partly because I don't know where the future of the Balance Board will take us.

Dunno if I should be proud that I can achieve inner peace and focus or ashamed that I'm great at sitting on the floor for 2 minutes
good music dude and i think that its good as well also wii play should have had theses hehe
I don't know about fitness, but this might be useful for boxing games (a newl layer of interactivity). I know it works with Punch Out, but I hear it isn't sensitive at all.
No. I didn't know that. That sounds cool.
Great review. I'm in two minds whether to get a Wii and this game as I could do with losing some weight :)
why then you run in the game do you run on wuhu island from wii sports resort? that confuse me. P.S sorry about my english
when u do muscle workouts, with some exercises the male trainer does poses that are IMPOSSIBLE to do, he turns his leg 360 and breaks his neck... ;P
My parents gave me this for Christmas and I havent even opened it yet...
does anybody else notice his beard and mustache look thicker when he comes out with the red shirt and blue pants?
Oh Joy! A Candle!!!!
i rember in run you could jump off a hill,go inside a cave and finish on a beach if you followed the second dog in the long run.it was a lot of fun
did anybody get thirsty while watching this review? meh probably cuz i was eating sun chips while watching
Nice shorts, wiiviewr :D
I JUST GOT THAT SONG OUT OF MY MIND!!!
@wiiviewr Really,that expensive. I got the game and I don't use it anymore since I use the Wii Fit Plus. But I probably got bored of it and stick up the upcoming future video games.
Zazen = Seated meditation, and important part of Zen Buddhism. Let's not forget, Nintendo is a Japanese company.
Question: I'm a person with a disability(I use a wheelchair and I'm parayzled from the waist down) is this a good game to buy for excerise or a waste?
Another great review bro! 😂
hahaha i liked the eye of the tiger montage
You should try reviewing Wii Fit Plus. Many of the things you had issues with in the game have changed. For example, now you can combine any yoga and stength exercises to create your own routine, and it will automatically be saved for you if you want to use it as an everyday routine.
I like the song choice..lmfao
What exercise game would you recommend?
I tested how long it takes to finish all the yoga and strength training. It takes 2 hours.
My MAIN complaint on this game is the fact that the freaking board has to recaberlate every time you do a different game! It makes you play the game less often.
I have a wii and ps3 too, I have played wii sports and wiifit. I did not like wii fit from day one. When I played wii sports the only mini game worth playing to me was boxing, but I still got bored of the game within 2 to 3 weeks. so, I guess casual gaming just is'nt for me.
funny you should mention that. I just finished playing that. It should be up in two weeks.
Zazen is the part of the game that's like "stop playing, contemplate, then continue playing"
many lol momments awesome review!
no caterpillar butts when doing push ups mista
My sister did the whole zadzun one time, and it only lasts one minute until the candle burns out and you end the game. The main reason you might've gained 2 pounds is because you might've grown taller, in which case you should've put that in so your BMI would be better.
eye of the tiger...i had a feeling ud do that
FORTUNATLEY, wii fit plus has routines and fixed most problems
I'm not sure how far you run but I found it a lot easier than running normally
on step aerobics i kept halfway on the board halfway off and busting my foot it hurts really bad
Did you know wiiviewr that there is a new game coming out called Rayman Raving Rabbids Party and it will use that the Wii Balance Bord on some mini games.
You don't think that Nintendo is a Japanese company? Yes, they are. They have been in business in Japan for over 100 years.
Even though my family bought the game, i think everyone should rent it to
wiiviewr Try Wii Fit Plus Game Review Wii Too
I agreed, and I found him on Amazon too
what if one leg is shorter then the other?
this is so great
@poefred999 It is possible. On the balance board thing
The candle game is really called Lotus Focus but you're right, it's really boring and so is boxing.
That's not the point. The main thing you are trying to do is to stay PERFECTLY still! It is almost impossible without cheating, at least for me. You sit on the wii board, and try to stay perfectly still. It is so sensitive that that is why I say it's nearly impossible. I'm sure people can do it, but I sure can't right now. The candle will flicker rapidly when you are off balance, and that's how you lose.
this was uploaded on my birthday
0:58 was funny
@oltpseed thanks i wont put up with any ones crap and critiques need to be critisizeto know how it feels
@brettjpw yes. Good point! Why is Nintendo trying to get you to loose weight, when their 2 most popular characters (Mario and bowser) aren't very much in shape. (Well maybe bowser can't help it because koopas are sort of built that way but Mario can! He's human!)
If you want a Fitness game buy ''EA Sports Active'' you can create your own workouts, it tells you how long the workout is and how many calories you will burn. Free leg strap and elastic band for exercises. THUMB UP SO PEOPLE CAN SEE!
This game made me skinny! It does work you just have to be willing to keep pushing yourself.
i think when they say try using a water bottle they mean when your not playing wii fit and your just doing it normally lol
I LUV THE SONG EYE OF THE TIGER! by the way dont listen to mean coments yr revies r AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Real Gamers" don't restrict themselves from playing other games. Gimmicks can be good, every gimmick is not necessarily a bad thing.
this video i think just revealed the wiiviewer's first name, it doesn't matter though...
Cool
Can you do the other exercise games like my fitness coach or out door challenge. Please wiiviewr
there wasn't a death at the end
Just do what I do
Everyday I do
2 Yoga
2 Strength Training
1 Arobic
3 Balance
Hey wiiviewr, how tall are you? You look like a really tall person o.o
it tests ure balance and concentration :)
I'd personally say DDR is a great excersize game. For my diet I have to burn a certain amount of calories a day and I'm able to do that within 1 hour of playing DDR. Of course you're dead tired afterward but at least you know that it's working.
This game is fun. I like doing the beggining and when ur done it tells u ur wii fit age which is cool. Cuz sumtimes I get so hyper just to c wat it is lol. I cant do pushups anymore since Ive been exercising with weights for five or four or six months cuz when I try to do it, JUST my right arm CRACKS....AND IT HURTS XD. Its located between my elbow and the bone above it. Its like this...1.....(Push Up)....2.....(push up.....CRACK.) Rofl Idk if im doing it wrong. I did it like dat 4ever&didnthurt
@wiiviewr you do know that you can by wii fit plus by itself you dont need a new balance board that would be riduculas
Best review I've seen.
nice shorts!
3:45 - 3:55 thats what wii fit + is for
Strangely, this game got like a 7.9 press average. That is really impressive for a casual and gimmicky game.
