The decidedly unathletic guys at The Exploding Barrel have both picked up Wii Fit, and in the first installment of this ongoing 'Biggest Losers' series, they are competing with each other to see who can use Wii Fit to decrease their BMIs the most without any other form of exercise over the course of 30 days.
In this first instalment, the rules are spelled out, contestant baselines are provided, and weekly updates will provide a window into the two writers' progress. On a humorous note, at the end of 30 days, the loser has to buy the winner a large pizza as a reward for getting in shape.
Both of the contestants smoke, drink, and generally eat crap, so the '30 Day Challenge' should be interesting test of the Wii Fit's utilitarian value as an exercise device for non-athletes (read: typical gamers), regardless of who wins.
This hardcore gamer grandma has put nearly 4,000 days into Wii Fit!
The NPD Group has revealed the top 10 best-selling exclusives in the U.S. since 1995, and Nintendo holds all 10 spots.
Nintendo has always had the most mass appeal, my Mother would play Mario.
There's landslides and then there's this. Wouldn't be surprised if the top 50 was mostly Nintendo games.
VGChartz's William D'Angelo: "Today we take a look at the top 10 best-selling games for yet another platform. Up to this point we have looked at the original PlayStation, the Nintendo 64, the PlayStation 2, the original Xbox, the GameCube, the Nintendo DS, and the PSP. This week it's the turn of Nintendo's most popular home console, the Wii.
The Wii is the fifth best-selling video game platform in history and the third best-selling home console in gaming history. It is also the best-selling home console not released by Sony. It sold 101.18 million units lifetime."
Just like the DS list, every game on the Wii's list has sold over 10 million. Not even PS1 and PS2 did that. That's very incredible
lol at the image..that kid has become an internet sensation for all the wrong reasons.
Honestly, we are just using the contest to encourage each other to take Wii Fit seriously, and after a month of trying it out, we'll be able to comment on how effective Wii Fit is as an exercise device.
BEEFCAKE.....BEEFCAAAAKEEE!!

Biggest Losers: xbox 360 owners :D
