  • Wii

    I just played my first 4 games what a blast. I went bowling and then boxing. The boxing is a real work out. My daughter is a boxing machine right now. This thing is fun.

    I got my exercize in for the day quite easy. Sweating and heart rate went up quick with the boxing.

    I will post after I have played each of the games on sports. So far so good.

      Re: Wii

      I don't have a large living room. I was wondering if we will need more space to play a Wii. We can move the coffee table but will only have a bit over 10 feet from couch to television.

      I think this would be good for the whole family. Especially if we decide to cancel cable!

      Thanks

          After we got our Wii, my wife and I would bowl until the early morning hours. I think she actually sprained her right butt cheek. Boxing is definately a workout, so is Mario and Sonic at the Olympics.

            My arms already hurt

            I am already planning my first bowling party. We used to play cards and drink now we can bowl and sweat.

            Our living room is large but our TV is about 8 ft from the sofa and there is plenty of room. I say go for it.

            Also I heard that the new digital TV converters give you a beautiful picture just not many channels. Go for it.

                OK I played 3 matches of tennis. I never played real tennis- wow that was exciting. I also played baseball for awhile and it was fun. I did do some more bowling.

                I have the galf to try next.

                I am going out to get another game and a memory stick.

                Later,

                  We're all Wii junkies in my family! Last month got the Wiil "My Fitness Trainer" which is cool, too, but definitely more like work . We also love the balance board. The game that comes with it has hula hooping, skiing, and a ton of other aerobic, strength training, and balance mini-games. Have fun!

                      Everywhere in town has been out of wii fit. I have been looking.

                      I did buy another sports game- but will have to wait for fit.

                      I will try the yoga as soon as I get it.

                          I use my Wii Fit every night when I get home from work. I love it! Keeps track of my workouts and my weight.

                            I love my Wii too! Is there a way to get a digital reading of your weight do you know? Mine weighs in stones and pounds (as that's how we tend to do it in the UK) but only on a measure type thing and so you can't see the exact reading.

                              I actually haven't picked up the wii fit yet. I was going to the other day but I got side tracked with life....

                              It is on my list though.
