Forums - Nintendo Discussion - I finally "played" Wii Fit for more than just a few minutes.

Seriously, what the hell, Nintendo?

There's nothing wrong with expanding the console audience but I just look at this thing and scratch my head. It's one of the more pointless devices I've seen in awhile.

If they actually create some good action/sports games and use the Wii board, it might be interesting. There is potential for actual "fun" in there somewhere, I just know it.

I don't dislike it at all. I just think in its current incarnation, the "game" is pretty pointless. It's not stressful in the slightest and the entire "exercise" motif behind the title is misleading at best.

A skateboarding game using the board would kick some ass, though.

Skate It is coming! According to previews the game is shaping up pretty well.

So you don't like Wii-Fit because of the way it uses the Balance Board?



Pixel Art can be fun.

No, I don't like Wii Fit because there's no real fitness involved in the game. It's a bunch of balancing "exercises" that get old pretty fast if you don't have a peg leg and an inner ear infection.

Skate it for the Wii is looking awesome. I loved it on the 360... the demo at least.

And I do want Wii Fit to lose these last five pounds that are plaguing me.
