*** You cant buy a wii fit for love not money these days and its only going to get harder as we approach Christmas***.
Visit Game to view their selection of Nintendo Wii Fit Bundles
Wii Fit, the exercise game that has sold over 1.4 million copies since its launch in Japan last December, is finally coming to these shores. Nintendo have announced that you will be able to tone your abs while you play from the 25th of April, but it will set you back around £70 for the privilege.
There are four categories of workout: Aerobic, Muscle Workouts, Yoga, and Balance Games with more than 40 routines available. Up to 8 people can track their progress and monitor performance via a new Wii Fit Channel on the Wii welcome screen. Now the reason for this post is simply to alert you to the fact that these are going to sell like hot cakes! Chances are if you don’t pre-order one for the release date they may well be difficult to get hold of.
UPDATE: OK Since Wii fit is now released, but still rarer than rocking horse business, you can compare prices of wii fit here
Key features:
# Learn to block soccer balls, swivel hips to power hoop twirls or balance to hold the perfect yoga pose – as users stand on the Wii Balance Board, included with Wii Fitness, their body’s overall balance is tied to the game in a way they’ve never experienced before.
# Wii Fitness also uses the Wii Balance Board for daily tests – these evaluate two key measures that a household can track via progress charts:
- Body Mass Index (BMI): A weight evaluation based on a ratio of„« weight to height.
- Wii Fitness Age: The Wii Fitness Age is measured by factoring the user’s BMI reading, testing the user’s centre of gravity and conducting quick balance tests.# Wii Fitness includes more than 40 types of training activities designed to appeal to all members of a household – training falls into four fitness categories:
- Aerobic Exercise: 10-minute exercises that are designed to get the heart pumping
- Muscle Conditioning: Controlled motions using arms, legs and other body parts.
- Yoga Poses: Classic poses that focus on balance and stretching.
- Balance Games: Fun activities, such as ski jumping and heading soccer balls, that challenge the player’s overall body balance.

Does anyone know when Amazon UK will open for preorders? Their product page doesn’t even work for Wii Fit and it’s been like that for weeks!
they are taking preorders now, I got an email from them on Sunday 16th March at around 5am. I’ve preordered my copy.
Update:
Now available at Tesco for £59.97. A significant saving on other pre-order outlets.
