Switch 90x....


Switch Intense....


seriously if they will push it another fitness... tie it with the current fad :P



 

Don't see why not.

Have a new board or maybe even use old one as well. But beyond the typical "home" experience of Wii Fit, you could have it to go.

YOu have your switch to prop up on its stand to do your workouts in the hotel room. You have the switch in your purse/bag to take out and input your daily food intake when at a restaurant. Ect.

Wii Fit is not tied ot the WIi branding, its tied to the fitness marketting, which is still a big thing. Make one able to sync their fitness band to the switch game and you will have a very inticing game, or app is probably better description.



maybe when they debut that quality of life stuff they've been wokring on



I say most certainly yes.

I think we'll get a new Switch fit board as well - with advanced haptic feedback



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

If 1 2 Switch does well, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens, but I wouldn't really be interested anyways :/

I thought it was already announced?

This thing is useless thought, with wearables costing as little as 10eur and connecting with smartphones, those have taken the fitness market.

You say tomato, I say tomato 

"¡Viva la Ñ!"

The switch is for a different audience just like the Wii U was. People forget that the wii was a fad that a attracted nongamers. Wii fit won't do so well on the switch.

I think Nintendo is trying to move away from all memories of the Wii brand now.

Could be a new brand. A Switch Fit.

Could also be part of the VR plans.. "We Are Fit"

 



It depends, how good are the Joycons as motion controllers?

Personally I think it still has potential as a IP but it won't be a massive seller. Nintendo also pooched it by doing the free to play/rental experiments when releasing Wii Fit U and the remake of Wii Sports on the Wii U.

The brand can still move forward but they will need to use the Joycons and another accessory (not balance board sized, probably a pedometer that synchs your info to the Switch and a online/mobile app) along with a decent campaign. Can't bank on word of mouth like the Wii era to do the advertising, they need to spend some money to get it to the fitness lovers not following game news.
