Yanks beat Brits at Wii Sports - official!

New research suggests that when it comes to frantic wrist-waggling, Americans are in a league of their own.

The American Council on Exercise (ACE) has just revealed the number of calories burned by a team of students playing virtual sports on Nintendo's Will console: digital bowling burns 3.9 calories (strictly, 'nutritional kilocalories') a minute, tennis expends 5.3 calories, while boxing KO's the opposition with a mighty 7.2 calories burned every 60 seconds.

It because americans have more fat to burn so they obviously burn more calories. Also i dont really call this beating, as they burn more calories. I thought i was going to read the article and see a massive wii sports tournament, but the title is badly named.
