The survey is flawed, not because of its size (US presidential elections are predicted accurately on not many more people) but because of the bias of the sampling frame. This was not a random survey of purchasers but rather a survey (of some sorts) of readers of an IT magazine.
On a personal note, my board is gathering dust right now but will be brought back out. I got out of my exercise program before a business trip and have not gotten back into one.
Which leads to the next point -- many people join gyms but few stick to them. If anyone thought Wii Fit would be any different (except it is one-third to one-quarter the cost of an annual gym membership if you already have the Wii console), then you were mistaken.

PS -- I wonder how this usage profile compares to other video games. After all, if people did not give up on games, there would be no used units to purchase.
 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
