WII Fit question

[firemanx]

So we bought the WII Fit tonight. What are everyones favorite games for WII Fit? Are there other games you can buy seperately?

 

[MN_Cruz'n]

My family's favorite is "Rayman's Raving Rabbids"...OMG what fun...

Crazy games, plus you get to sit on the WII Fit pad and use your butt to steer down a mountain slalom course. OK, it's more than that, but I can't do it justice with a description.

There are other games too (dancing, playing instruments to music, burning down buildings as if you were Godzilla, and a bunch more).

A really fun game!

I didn't buy that extra stuff for my Wii Fit, just the games that came with it. I like the Balance games, plus I enjoy Hula Hoop, Boxing, and the "free step' aerobics where you can change channels and watch TV for 30 minutes while stepping.

I'm pretty good at the Yoga stuff that doesn't require me to balance on one leg. I don't do much Strength Training yet. It's still a bit much for me.

I just have the games that came with it, and I love the skiing games the best. I like the penguin game where you have to catch the fish, too, because it always makes me laugh to watch that penguin slide around to the silly music.

I really hate the tightrope walking, mostly because I am absolutely no good at it.

I agree Raving Rabbids is fun

I like the skiing.. but cannot do the hula hoop

The soccer head-butting game is frankly a bit violent and creepy. Head butting the soccer balls isn't bad in itself, but getting whomped in the head by the shoes and then the whole "decapitated panda heads" thing is a bit not "wrong".... (I really stink at it, too....)


I have to admit - I really like how the game incorporates your family members' Miis into the activities. I love passing my daughters on the runs or having them coach me or cheer me on.

Aw! I love the soccer!! The pandas are freaky.

I also like the balance game where u roll the balls into the holes. It is hard, but fun.

I have lost 17 pounds andit is part of my workout plan!!

My favorites are soccer heading, penguin catching the fish, free step, advanced boxing, hula hooping. I like the jogging too. The skiing is also fun, but I hate the one with the snow board (I think that's one you open up in advanced).

I bought my son a skiing game for his b'day and can't wait until the end of the month to give it to him so we can try it out.

I am the only one in our family that still plays on it!!

I think it's great fun and I haven't got any 'extra' games!

I played my Wii Fit once, the day i got it

I'm just too too lazy

 

[robind]

I got the Shawn White Skiing game and I really like it, but it is exhausting. I am soooo out of shape. I haven't played in a while, I have been so busy at work and they never let me go home anymore.

Opps, must not complain about work, must not complain about work, must not complain about work.

It's a great workout...we only have the game that came with the Wii fit...but like a lot of people ours has been slid under our coffee table for a few months now....I've been running outside, but now that the heat is getting up here in Central Florida and it'll only get hotter and humid I'll probably find myself doing it more often.

 

[maddiesmom0116]

I love the rhythm boxing and the step - I have so many games still to try on the original game, I am noit sure when I will buy an new game for the Wii Fit.

 

[DWFan4Life]

I agree Raving Rabbids is fun

Same here, it's really a fun game.

We bought a game called like "Family Game Night" while it doesn't use the Wii balance board...between Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Tiger Woods Golf and the Family game night...I don't see myself buying anymore Wii games. I don't play nearly enough to warrant spending on them. I bet this summer though when it gets BLAZINGLY warm down here in central Florida I'll be pulling out the Wii fit more often than going out for a run.

I've been really enjoying the step aerobics and the running - I do the running on my treadmill while the Wii Fit is in the tv screen. works really great as far as keeping the pace.

I also just bought the work-out game with Jillian from the Biggest Loser - plan on staring that one this evening -

I don't know about any of you others - but I really don't get a "workout" from most of the WiiFit sections on the game disk . Don't get me wrong - they're fun, but not what I was expecting. Maybe after I have the lost the weight I'm planning on losing, it'll be better for toning and strength training...

Love my Wii Fit! I do the boxing, step, strength training and some of the yoga for my normal exercise routines. We also have We Ski....it's a very relaxing fun ski game (love the night time mode). Raving Rabbids TV Party---OMG, the most hilarious game we've played. I just picked up My Fitness Coach yesterday (which does NOT use the Wii fit board). It's OK so far....I'll see how I like it after a couple of weeks (it may be "retired" to my shelf with my other exercise DVDs I don't use now....).

Don't get your hopes up on this game....we bought it at Best Buy for like $39 or something and a few weeks later after playing it like twice we put it up on amazon and luckily got most of the $$ back. If you don't care for the actual Wii Fit game Jillian's game won't blow you away at all. It was pretty obvious it was VERY cheaply made. Should have been $19 at the absolute most IMHO.

I had read the reviews of Jillian's game, and chose the My Fitness Coach instead. I've only used it twice so far, I can't really give it a fair rating yet (but I can say I am still "feeling the burn" from those wicked squat lunges this morning). It's no Wii Fit, that's for sure. I did see that Gold's Gym has a game coming out that I believe uses the Wii Fit board. Hope it turns out to be good.
