Forums - Nintendo - Woolworths - Wii Fit selling at a rate of 90 per minute

http://wiifitchat.blogspot.com/2008/04/woolies-wii-fit-selling-at-90-units.html

"Nintendo's Wii Fit launched to a frenzy of eager consumers in the UK today, and, according to high street store Woolworths, is being snapped up at a rate of 90 units per minute from their hundreds of outlets.

"This is a revolution in computer gaming. For a game not targeted at gamers to sell in numbers like this is unheard of and is genuinely changing the market," said Woolworths games trading manager Gerry Berkley.

Woolworths and other stores, writes WebUser, have reported queues around the country as Wii owners attempt to pick up the hottest Wii title of the year so far"

I can see tons of Anti-Wii gamers sitting by themselves arms folded, pouting, mumbling to themselves something like, "Hmph, It's not a real game."



The rEVOLution is not being televised

I blame it.



You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.

Gaming is destroyed confirmed!

 I'll probably get it eventually.  I exercise a lot, but have always wanted to be more flexible, so WiiFit is probably a decent way to get the added flexibility in addition to the strength training and toning I already do.



Please, PLEASE do NOT feed the trolls.

This is a real game more real then some boring FPS game you use only few of your fingers.

the bad part with Wii Fit is that I cant play it as much as I want too beacuse now after 1 hour with it I'm tired



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

OH NO!!!!

and yes I'll get it if I find one lying on a shelf



I'll get it. If it helps me maintain a fitness routine (and is fun) then it's worth it. I also want We Ski.



 

Welcome to your new Wii Fit overlords!



That looks like a lot, especially for a single chain of stores! I'm going home now, so I'll try the game soon. The box is bigger and heavier than I thought.

PS: Isn't there a "Will Wii Fit bomb?" thread which needs to be bumped soon?
