Holy crap, just played that on the medium setting for the first time... I was sweating like an emo kid in a knife factory

ahahahahahah almost the same thing happened to me... only, i set the highest level... it was the closest thing to suicide i ever tryed XD.

Have either of you played WiiFit? Do you know if Active is better for loosing weight? Is it more fun? Is it a higher quality product?

I am sceptical because it doesn't support the balance board does it? I have debated purchasing it for ages!

Yeah, it does support the board, but I can't advise either way as I haven't played Fit.  

Active is a much better tool for getting in shape: it's literally a workout, while Fit is more about balance and posture (with a few exceptions).

But Fit is more fun because it has the Chicken games....

Overall, go with Active.

i agree. wii fit is definetely more fun but i don't think anybody ever lost weight only doing that.

active isn't really fun. it's real excercises that can really make you lose weight. in the meanwhile i was on a diet so it's not all thanks to active, but since i started doing that i've lost 6 Kg in 3 months (i've done alternatively the 20 days challenge on active and the 6 weeks challenge on active more workouts, and now i'm boing random programs from both)

BTW you can use the balance board but i prefeare to turn it off, since some excercises ar way more intense without the board.

I personally haven't tried any of these fitness games, since there isn't really that much space in the room where I have the Nintendo Wii in to play these types of games. However, I always did want to try out the Wii Fit game just for fun. Many people seem to enjoy it.
