Just picked up one at best buy this morning. I was able to pricematch toys r us' ad of $10 off wii ski w/ wii fit purchase and was able to use the $10 off $75 coupon for game purchases at bestbuy. Got both wii fit and wii ski for $99.99 + tax.

If you are trying to get one online, try watching http://wiitracker.com/wiifit/
They have been selling out very quickly as soon as any sites happen to post any, but I managed to pull the site up just as circuit city had them this morning and got one with free shipping Luckily I wasn't very busy this morning and was able to keep a close eye on that site Every so ofter it's coming up that someone has them - I think toys r us.com had some earlier and bestbuy.com as well. It was using this site I was able to get my Wii a few months ago as well.

I was subbing at school today, and my intermediate school student got home before I did. He was so excited to find one waiting for him when he got home! He hooked it up and has been playing it for the past 1 1/2 hours!!! My 2nd grader has not played yet because my 5th grader has been hogging it! He LOVES it, especially the skiing! He says he is very happy he is burning calories!!! I haven't had a chance to try it yet, but I plan on it!

I have one on order at Amazon but says it won't ship for another 6 days.

Was in Target this morning and they had them , so I picked one up
just in case Amazon runs out before shipping my originial.
Target was limiting to one per person.

I can't wait till hubby gets home to set it up.
It sounds like so Much fun.

Got mine today. I pre-ordered mine from Amazon about a month ago. I haven't taken it out of the box yet, but I'm looking forward to using it.

I picked up mine at BJs wholesale club at around 6 this evening. They said that I was only the second one to pick one up today. They have about 30 left. Paid 84.99 for the system. Have fun.

Alright, I'll bite. What's the huge attraction to this game?

I was at Sam's Club today picking one up and they were limiting them one per member. They still had a few left. Kindof a bummer since I used my membership for my brother's. I am trying to talk my husband into getting one now. It is a lot of fun. I played my brother's after he bought it. I really like the yoga and hula hoop.

For those of you who have tried it out....

What kind of accessories do you recommend? I see yoga mats, covers, rechargeable stations, etc. According to UPS.com mine was just delivered

I dont know that other than the rechargeable station anything is really worth the extra $$..they had the mat and a "wii fit towel" rotfl2: ) at toys r us when i got mine today...

my DW is playing it right now--she is doing the yoga poses, likes it alot....she is inshape, i am not...going to try to catch up!!

We set ours up after dinner and played for a short time.
DH was able to do some of the aerobics while I put DD to bed. I heard him say "wow, this is really a workout."

I tried the balance games and really liked them. It is harder than it looks!

 

[maggiew]

I did the yoga workout. It was fun but a little harder than expected. My balance was great but a little shaky. My BMI was good, but my Wii Age was 48! That's 10 years OLDER!!!

Finally played it for 20 minutes! My BMI was like 27 point something and my Wii Fit Age was 38 which is 1 year older than my real age. By COB was slightly to the right and the system says I'm overweight. Well I knew that. LOL! I agree, the balancing games are harder than they look. I also enjoyed the hula hoop game. I really felt that one and the basic steps game was fun. I also did the running. I think I'm really going to enjoy Wii Fit. I'm glad I got it.

How accurate is the scale on it?

I picked up my pre-ordered Fit yesterday but haven't used it yet.

Does it display your weight the whole time you are playing? I don't need that popping up! Will anyone who uses the game be able to see all your info/stats?

You have a choice to weigh yourself or not, but it will measure your BMI. I think it only shows your info when you go to your "stats" page. I don't know the actual term b/c the kids have monopolized the thing since we got it!

You can password protect your info. The weight does not show as you are working out.

My friend called me yesterday and told me she and her dh both password protected their info. When he left the room, she tried 3 times to figure our his password and it asked her, "Are you really Jim?"

What is the deal with the yoga mat? Does it do anything special or is it just a mat?
