Nintendo Wii Fit?

The Wii Fit Plus has an option to create your own routine so you don't have that annoying stopping in between. I like it for stretching, (yoga) and the strength exercises, but for cardio you will probably need something else. I also love the EA Sports Active and the Personal Trainer. Both can be customized and provide more cardio, although with EA sports Active it's running in place, but it kills me because you have to run knees high, and then kick heels up in back, etc. Then again, I'm not a runner...Fun indoor exercise, but it won't replace getting outside on your bike!

I purchased Just Dance over Christmas, and that is a lot of fun and GREAT exercise. Actual dance movements! Not just waving the controller left,right,up down, like in some of the other dance games. I'm also having fun with the Karaoke American Idol, but that's only exercising my vocal chords. And only when I'm absolutely sure no one else is around.

That's good to know. My friend hadn't figured that out yet.

oh, wait, is that the same on the Wii Fit?

No, it isn't an option on wii Fit. It was something that a lot of reviews were criticizing. The fact that you couldn't make a "routine", you had to select exercises one at a time, so they fixed it with the Wii Fit plus. The plus version is $19.99 and I traded the old Wii Fit game into my local Slackers, because the plus version has everything wii fit had and then the new, improved parts.

You can always skip the body test with the Wii Fit Plus (this year's incarnation). I agree the BMI business is BS even though mine is in the "normal" range, and there's a lot of the programming that's excessively cutesy. Doesn't stop me from loving the balance games.
