Nintendo Plans Low Priced Wii Fit Plus

Got the board? Then you'll pay a pittance for new content.

by Anoop Gantayat

July 9, 2009 - Nintendo is all set to give casual fitness pursuers a set of additional activities through Wii Fit Plus later this year. The big question is, how much will we have to pay for it?

The answer is, not much at all! Some unconfirmed (but pretty reliable) reports from Japan have Plus set to sell for a mere 2,000 yen over there. That's about $21 US!

This, of course, is just for the game on its own. Nintendo will also be releasing it as part of a bundle with the Balance Board. That will presumably have pricing more close to the original Wii Fit.

Nintendo hasn't made official announcement of its pricing and release strategy for Wii Fit Plus, so consider this just a likely rumor for the time being. We'll let you know once something more solid has been announced.




Around the Network

That's not a rumor.



So I'm confused. Is this an expansion pack or is it the first game with additional content added?

I'm asking because I'm wondering if I could sell my original disk for Wii Fit and buy Wii Fit Plus. I think the disk only sells for $20-$25 on ebay which which would finance the upgrade.

I'm doing the same thing with Metroid Prime: Trilogy. I'm gonna sell my Metroid Prime 3 disk to help finance the upgrade...

^ This is you!

WF+ is pretty much an expansion pack. It has everything Wii Fit had.....+ more.

In an interwiev I read (which i cant find now) this is disc only, Wiifit boards will come with both this and the regular disc and this will also be sold separetly for already existing owners.
