Wii Fit Plus - Game Only (Wii)

Wit Fit Plus has 15 new games which are as follows: 1. Perfect 10 is a game where you use your hips to hit numbers in which to reach a total. This is good fun and will test your body and mind co-ordination. 2. Cycling is done by walking on the balance board and you steer with your Wii Remote collecting flags. I found the cycling ok but prefer the cycling mode in Wii Sports Resort. 3. Rhythm Kung Fu is abit like the Rhythum Boxing only alot harder. 4. Driving Range is done by standing on your Wii balance board sideways and you swing the Wii remote like a golf club. I found this event to be the weakest out of the new ones. 5. Segway Circuit is brilliant fun as you race around poping beach balls! 6. Bird's-eye Bull's-eye is a real laugh in which you flap your arms like a madman to fly around, and you have to land on the targets for points. 7. Snowball Fight will test your reactions and throwing skills. 8. Obstacle Course is great fun and you feel like your running around a Mario level! 9. Tilt City is very enjoyable in which you guide these colour balls by tilting your Wii remote and your weight on the balance board towards their matching colour pipe. By matching the colour balls with the same colour pipe it will set off a firework. 10. Rhythum Parade surprised me as I was good at it and enjoyed it too. I was waving my Wii remote and Nunchuk in perfect timing on my first go! 11. Big Top Juggling is a very hard rhythm balance game. 12. Skateboard Arena is fantastic with it's jumps and stunts. 13. Table Tilt Plus is a good challenge even for those that have mastered the first one. 14. Balance Bubble Plus I completed the whole course on my first go which was mixture of skill and being very lucky. 15. Jogging Plus has new routes to un-lock and observation skills! Other great things about Wii Fit Plus is the Multiplayer Mode in which you and your family or friends play games together. Each player takes turns with the Wii balance board and Wii Remote, and simply change players when prompted. There are three more Yoga and Muscle Workouts to try. You can practise your balance test games which test your Wii fit age in My Wii Fit Plus menu ( door ). There are five new balance test which are a bit tricky. Wii Fit Plus tells you how many calories you have burned off and you might find it useful being able to set yourself different fitness routines. All your data from the first Wii Fit game is carried over to Wit Fit Plus which is most excellent indeed just like this game is really!

When you love something, it is often a mistake to try push it a stage further to make it better. This is one of those few occasions when the sequel really is worth waiting for. When you first load it up, it picks up your existing save file and adds it into the new save file so that you don't lose your original Wii Fit data. The new Wii Fit Plus contains everything that Wii Fit does, except it is bursting at the seams with new fuctionality. The new multiplayer mode makes playing as a family even more fun, and if that's not enough, when playing in training mode it is simple to switch users without having to go all the way back to the plaza with the help of the brand new 'switch' button. This is a massive PLUS on the original. The new games are excellent and some require the use of the balance board, wiimote and nunchuk at the same time. So much fun for all the family to enjoy and compete together. 'My Wii Fit Plus' allows you to customise your own workouts making this a fantastic cross between Wii Fit and the good parts of 'My Fitness Coach' & 'Jillian Michaels fitness ultimatum'. You can even count your calories here, not just what you burn (which is based on your personal body weight), but also what you consume. Overall, this is the fitness game of the year.... and there have been so many. Can anyone better this? I doubt it!

This game was a gift for my younger brother & he has loved playing all the extra games on it, The rest of the family have also enjoyed playing it! good game

If you like Wii Fit, you should love the plus model. Some of the extra games are excellent (snowball fight is a personal favourite), but what is really impressive is that it is like Nintendo have listened to customer feedback; they've certainly fixed a few of my gripes about the original. Your history transfers over as well, so you are not starting from scratch again which was a good touch. The addition of activities which use the board and the Wiimote together was a very pleasant surprise (Snowball fight!). One of biggest concerns I heard/had about the original was it was actually hard to use it to have a "proper" workout, I rarely got sweaty unless I did some of the aerobics, whereas some other fitness programs I've used you set a time length &/or objective and sets the exercises accordingly & you get tired! Wifit plus doesn't go that far, but you can set a routine of your favourite/useful exercises and it runs straight thru' them without all the messing about switching menus etc. that means you cool down...... still it more towards the fun aspect than the serious workout, but there are other programs for that - this is one you would use everyday & enjoy it! All the new games seem to be more of a workout than the originals; a ploy on Nintendo's part? If so, go with it, and you get fitter whilst having a lot of fun. Highly recommended.

If you're considering buying this as the "game only" option, then you're almost certainly an existing Wii Fit owner. As such, Wii Fit Plus is just about worth the price Amazon are charging as an upgrade. But this is definitely version 1.5 - as opposed to 2.0 - if you catch my drift. The headline points for me were: - it transfers existing user profiles from the original Wii Fit, so you won't lose any data. - it has 15 completely new and quite original new games. This time around there's a mental as well as physical element to some of the challenges: not sure if that's a good thing for my part - as it made me feel older! The new games are probably better suited to kids than the previous version. For example: standing on the balance board flapping your arms pretending to be a duck in flight! Not exactly a serious pursuit, but then the beauty of Nintendo games over the years has always been that daft element. Incidentally ALL of the former content is retained (with a few minor enhancements) so you can still play your old favourites. - perhaps most usefully of all, Wii Fit Plus gives an estimate of calories burned after each activity (this has been added to the old exercises too, not just the new games). What hits home is how few calories you burn even on the more strenuous exercises. So the bad news is you're probably going to spend at least half an hour on the thing to burn off one packet of cheesy Quavers. Bottom line: if, like me, you are a fan of the original game you will undoubtedly squeeze even more fun out of this update. On the other hand if you're looking for a serious fitness product (which I most certainly wasn't) you are far less likely to be impressed and may wish to seek out alternative Wii-compatible fitness software.

UPDATE When I returned this defective game the seller sent me a really rude email, Complaining that I had sent it back! Returned as did not work. Seller should have checked this item.

Having bought the Wii Fit board in order to lose weight and improve my posture, I was impressed in every way by the game. I was encouraged to get up every morning at 6:00am and interact with my Mii. My centre of gravity was so bad when I first began it explained my joint pain in my right hip & left foot. As I used the Wii fit board I lost weight each week and soon my joint pain disappeared completely. The exercises/games were simple but effective. I was pleased when it was announced that the Wii fit plus was to be released and I ordered my copy immediately and I wasn't disapointed! The new features are brilliant and enhance the original game. The simple test for weight/BMI makes the process much quicker although I still like to do the full body test sometimes as it lets me see my COG and ensures I am still standing/walking correctly. The new balance games are such good fun and although my husband & I are 45-50 we enjoy competing against each other like we were kids. Overall good value for money and good all-round entertainment as well as very good for aging bones/joints.
