My little brother has been saving up his money to buy a used
Wii for months.
He finally got it about a week ago, along with
Wii fit.
Now, I'm not entirely sure what Wii fit does to help get you in shape. It's still a game. But you can't exactly sit your duff on the couch, so I guess it's an improvement. But then, I'm not a gamer. Now, if my brother had bought a different game, I can see him getting so involved that he breaks a sweat and keeps going. A
Zelda game, for instance, would hold him enthralled for hours at a time - an amount of time he would typically have spent either on his computer, or playing one of his many handheld games - sitting.
So, thank you, Wii, for getting my brother off his chair.
What kind of fitness contribution do you think Wii makes?
