Abstract
Phillip Levin writes:
''When Nintendo bundled Wii Sports with its latest console, Wii, it stumbled upon a gaming audience that few game makers knew existed or, let's be honest, cared about: people who don't normally play games. Wii Fit is, you could say, the spiritual follow-up to Wii Sports. It's not a sequel -- one is a sports game that is played with just the Wii-mote, and the other is a fitness tool that uses the new Wii Balance Board. However, there is something both titles have in common: they're both aimed at non-gamers.
Wii Fit is played almost entirely with the Wii Balance Board, a small platform that when stood on detects body weight and your center of balance. There are four different exercise categories: yoga, aerobics, strength training and balance games. By standing on the device while performing different exercises, Wii Fit is able to measure your center of balance and rate your performance. You can also take a body test each day, which the game uses to measure and provide you with day-to-day statistical data, including your weight, body mass index (BMI) and Wii Fit Age.''
