I wonder: is it because it's a "game"? Were the balance board some product advertised after MacGuyver reruns at 1AM I doubt I'd be bothered. But here I am, bothered... sweaty... and addicted.
I want to be fit, I want Wii Fit.
It's hard to score Wii Fit within normal gaming conventions. It's the most "far-removed from a game" title in Nintendo's Touch Generations range. It's not a game, yet it is. Wii Fit is about getting you exercising and it suceeds. But not only on the level of engaging the type of person who wants to exercise, no, Wii Fit can also capture the minds and bodies of your stereotypical gamer. And that's no mean feat."
