I have to admit, the advert for this I saw yesterday (UK) was pretty good, I think it will do well, and it seems like a good aid to fitness, like it says, a different type.

Sales wie it won't come close of course, but I think it will be a million seller, possibly multi million. And it could compliment Wii Fit with a different approach to excercise.

"As one of the most successful video games over the past decade, Wii Fit is a genuine phenomenon. Now the sports game experts at EA have released their own fitness title, EA Sports Active: Personal Trainer, which boasts a greater focus on cardiovascular training and traditional workouts. We spent a weekend with the new game, but what does it offer for Wii Fit fans?"
...
Bolded is my question; why or how are they experts?

EA (along with Nintendo) have had the most successful sports games for a long time.

EA has had a near monopoly on the sports games section for a while, it's been proven here an there that their products can't take competition well. (Excluding Nintendo) I can think of The Show.

Ah, ok; thanks.

I'm Unamerica and you can too.

If there's one thing I've learned this generation- it's that you have mario or the word "wii" in the title, you'll sell over 3 million guaranteed. EA has neither ;o i see no threat.

EA is taking the "Copy Nintendo" thing to new heights.

If they can copy all of Nintendo's best franchises... maybe the EA console isn't too far away.
