Thanks for pointing out an interesting article.

I for one cannot wait for Wii Fit, I am certain that I will use it every day, it will become an obsession.

I will buy it and hope i can defeat my inner temptation. Wii Sport helped a little at that.

Since it's already off topic on the BC issue...

It costs Nintendo nothing for BC.
It costs Sony some for BC.
How is it suddenly Nintendo's fault? Shouldn't Sony be the culprit for bad design here?

I'll never get the current hate for Nintendo's casual software. Yea they put a lot of it out right now and it makes huge money for lost cost to develop for them and then what do they do they spend most of the R&D budget on traditional Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Star Fox etc. Seems like at least half if not 70 percent of their cash flow atm is the casuals and yet they spend most of the money still on traditional gamers I'm always happy to see another casual title succeed for Nintendo means so much more money available to make the next Zelda that much better. Not to mention we were all casual once none of us were born with controllers in our hands whether your first casual title was SMB, Pong, Singstar whatever a large deal of them end up exploring more options in gaming and only makes the audience larger and therefore the production values also larger for the games we love. Some it will even be their first game system and they'll go pick up a PS3 or a 360 to add on I really just don't understand the hate at all its only good for the industry as a whole.

Good for the Wii fit, I still have no interest in the product, but its good to see some popular opinion siding with the console that's growing to be my fav.
