http://i.gizmodo.com/5201153/wii-controllers-test-your-riiflex-for-35-this-summer
Starting at $35 this summer, Power Play's Riiflex brings you closer to the body of a god who sits on a couch and works out with 2-pound weights for 15 minutes daily.

The Riiflex can be used any game on the Wii or also as an additional accessory with the Wii Fit. It also has a design that retains easy access to all controller functions while you're working out. The Riiflex dumbbells will be sold in pairs. For those who need a heavier model and are more fit than the rest of us, there's a set of two 4-pound weights that cost $40. The sets are scheduled to begin shipping this summer.


So, pretty much, you can work out whilst you're playing a game on the Wii. But at £35, would you really want to pay for it?

It would be cheaper to just staple some brick on the controllers.

How about you just pay $10 for some dumbells instead?

Well, I like the fact that the Wii-mote and nunchuck can actually fit, but...
It kinda looks like it blocks the pointer on the wii-mote.
And is there a hole in the bottom of both of them, so you can access the B and shoulder buttons?

why buy a wii if your goal is to become more fit?
