Buy Walking VideosNintendo Wii Fit Announced At E3
Ever since my obsession with DDR and Yourself! Fitness has worn down, I’ve been looking for a new exergaming option. It looks like Nintendo is happy to feed my obsession with Wii Fit. It’s a new game with a new controller called a Balance Board. You can see the full story about the announcement at E3 at Engadget:
Here is some information on the Wii Balance Board:
“The Wii Balance Board is a Reebok Step look-alike, with dual sensors that can detect your weight and balance on each side as you exercise to the various on-screen Wii activities in Wii Fit. The board is wireless, and holds the potential of full-body games involving the Wiimote and the Wii Balance Board simultaneously.”
Yes! That’s what we’ve been waiting for. I had no idea that it would be Nintendo to fulfill my wishes.
I checked Nintendo’s website, but they haven’t put any mention of this new product on it yet. That’s one thing I like about Apple. When they announce things, they usually have something on their website about it the same day. Nintendo wasn’t ready for fan girls like me to bombard their site looking for more information. I guess we’ll have to wait. I’ll keep you posted.

I’ve never really been a game console guy, but more and more I keep thinking that the Wii looks very interesting, in spite of my scoffing when it was first announced. If I’m not careful, I might just go ahead and buy one.
