Yeah because Wikipedia is the definite authority in this matter You do not play so it is no game.

So I'm not playing the following:

 

  • Ski jumping
  • Ski and snowboard slaloms.
  • Heading soccer balls.
  • Table tilt - Where the player shifts their balance to get balls into holes.
  • Tightrope tension - The player must cross a tightrope avoiding the snapjaws.
  • Balance Bubble - The player attempts to navigate down a river in a bubble without bursting it on the sides.
  • Penguin slide - The player has to catch fish whilst balanced on a piece of ice.
  • Zazen - The player must remain motionless whilst looking at a flame.
They're not games. Nope. Not at all

 

 



Don't get into this argument.

If you can participate in an activity for entertainment value, then it's a game. Back in elementary school, you might have played kickball or tag. These activities count as exercise, but they're still games. And Wii Fit is on a console and played on a TV, so that takes care of the video part.



 

 

^It's funny how you say Wiki isn't the authority on this and set yourself up as the final word. It's the majority opinion that counts in this matter and your opinion is the minority. Too bad, you Nintendo-hating troll :)

Yes! No need to give you a Bingo board anymore, cause you have just said it, Wii Fit IS a game.

 Be careful where you point that thing!



 

 

Wii fit is a game saying otherwise is just plain fanboyism.

If you take away the arobic exercises the yoga and the mucle exercises you still have the balance execises and that my friends(or not) are pure GAME.

I know beacuse I actually have the game.



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