Wii Fit

Posted on by

I was lucky enough to purchase a Wii Fit from the Nintendo World store in NYC last week. They’re even harder to find than the Wii is (which I also got from the Nintendo World store). I tried it out and it’s a lot harder than I thought it would be. There are 4 categories; Yoga, Strength Training, Aerobics, and Balance Games. You get “Fit Credits” for every minute you spend using the Wii Fit. After you bank a certain number of “Fit Credits”, you’ll unlock additional exercises or have the ability to increase reps on certain exercises. Surprisingly, I actually like the yoga. One of the more fun games is the Super Hula Hoop. I have a hard time trying to go counter-clockwise though. I’m going to try and do 30 minutes every night like they suggest but I’ll be happy with 4+ days each week.

 

Mii And My Wii

Posted on by

After picking up a Nintendo Wii for a friend of mine’s daughter and playing it a couple of times, I decided to purchase one for myself. The only place that seems to have any is the Nintendo World store in New York. I set it up the other night, hooked it up to the Internet and started playing. I can purchase and download some original NES, SNES, Nintendo64 and Sega Genesis games. There are a few games I plan on buying and downloading (Super Mario Brothers 1-3, Super C, Legend of Zelda) but there are still others (Contra, Paperboy, Rampage, Duck Hunt, Spy Hunter) that I wish were available.
