Wii Fit.

Mario Kart is awesome but i'm sure you have played previous ones.

Wii Fit is potentially the most important game of this generation.

Whoa.. full stop here. Wii Fit, is at best, a sorry excuse for lazy people to not go out, buy a pair of good jogging shoes, and actually _start to do_ something for their health. As a gameing tool, it is (presently) a worthless piece of crap. As a fitness tool.. no sorry, same answer. Go and talk to people that _actually are professionals in that sector_ (as I have done). As for Americans, the only things I see are lawsuits coming (looking at some of the more advanced "training routines").

Once again, if you are thinking of improving your health and look for the cheap way-out, go buy that piece of plastic. If you are serious, do something serious. As for games, the board may one day become a tool for novel game control (reminds me somewhat of the Amiga Guru Meditation board - or whatever its name was then). As for now, not worth buying.

 

Maybe it's just a simple way for gamers to stay fit or even get fit through their favorite hobby?

Look at Rubang. Look at his Gameboy pouch picture. He's a rippling, sexy stud. But he's still buying Wii Fit, mainly because the game looks like a lot of fun, and you can never be too fit. Besides, the uses for games may be novelty, but the idea is still worth trying it.
