So, Wii Fit. It's supposed to help people lose weight with the balance board and Wiimote. I can't help but wonder if this may have been accomplished with earlier games, minus the balance board. Really, it seems like an expansion of Wii sports. It's also probably on the track to better sales than Halo 3, if only many less preorders.
It's still a huge "maybe" to me, as I enjoy the quirks of being fat.

The only thing that catches me is the BMI indicator thing and the snowboarding.
Snowboarding for obvious reasons, and BMI indicator, well, it just seems interesting to me....

My mom has already said she wants to buy a second Wii so she won't have to share a TV to play Wii Fit. I know she's convinced it is a worthwhile piece of software, as am I. I am thoroughly convinced that, if walking can help you lose weight, so can doing push-ups, yoga, and even just little balance games on the Wii Fit board can also lead to people losing weight.
Unfortunately, Tango, WiiSports isn't really the best exercising equipment in the world. It is actually lower intensive than walking and requires a ton of playtime to see any significant results, even when you're going all out in the game.
I know come February or whenever, I will most likely be picking this game up the day it comes out.

From the previews, It looks like it's a little Yoga mixed with some slight exercise movements (with the wiimote). I doubt it's enough to make you loose weight, or as much as just going to the gym could.

What I heard nothing was mentioned for losing weight. They were talking about it as a Cardiovascular workout.
Side Note: No one better start an argument or make a statement saying "It's no substitute for a real gym". We know that already. It's better than nothing at all so there's no point saying it. Shut Up and Move On.
EDIT: Looks above. Damn you.... D:

Well I might be a fun and easy way to lose 1 or 2 extra pounds. But I cannot say that overweight people can benefit all that much by playing this game.

There is A Snowboarding minigame, a Soccer minigame, a palates minigame, and some others.
Plus, there is the added bonus, there is the, "Who has the Biggest BMI, and therefore Who is the Fattest in the Family?" minigame, that can be played every month, complete with bragging rights and the occasional suicide.

I know damn you was a joke, I just didn't know what you were kidding about.
I just wanted to make myself clear. I wasn't attacking WF, I was simply laughing at the fatasses who think 20 minutes on WiiFit after eating 43974832784 donuts is going to save them.

The slight discomfort has turned into LOLs. As I have said before, there are many quirks to being fat if society wasn't so against fat people.
