If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

So you finally got your hands on Nintendo’s Wii Fit and can’t wait for your family to start exercising together? Great, so the first thing you do is have everyone weigh in, but wait one second. The Wii Fit just told you that your kids are overweight! You didn’t pay Nintendo close to $100 to tell you that your kids are fat right?

Wii Fit Girl: Get Her Autograph and a Wii Fit

If you have been hiding under a rock the past few months you might not have seen the Wii Fit Girl on YouTube. Her debut video features her in nothing but her panties doing the hula hoop! It turns out that the video was a marketing gimmick. Regardless, it generated over 2 millions views in a relatively short time frame. I noticed today on Ebay that you can get a Wii Fit signed by the Wii Fit Girl. The seller happened to recognize her in an EB Games in Miami and was able to score an autograph. I’m very interested in what the final selling price will be.

jOG: One Small Step for Man, One Giant Leap for Wii

I came across a new controller for the Nintendo Wii today called the jOG. It’s being touted as motion sensor for game consoles that enables your character to move only when you do. It’s a really neat concept that perfectly compliments Nintendo’s gaming strategy for the Wii. Just imagine what playing the Wii Fit will be like using jOG. While jOG is available for Playstation, it will not be available for the Wii until this Christmas.

Keep an eye out for this nifty little device as I am sure it will really kick your aerobic workouts into over-drive. I am not sure what the jOG is expected to cost, but I will post more when I find out.

WiiWeightWatcher is LAME!

Today I stumbled across WiiWeightWatcher.com and thought I would find out what the site is all about. According to their home page,

WiiWeightWatcher easily allows users to keep track of their own weight loss while on a Wii Fit exercise regime.

WiiWeightWatcher Track Your Wii Fit Progress.

The first thought that came to mind was “What’s the point?” I don’t understand why someone would spend the time to make a web site that does what Wii Fit will already do for you? So I said to my self, “what the heck, I’ll give it a try.” So I registered for the site to see what I was missing. First off, the site was very cumbersome to use but more importantly it doesn’t provide any additional functionality that’s not already available in Wii Fit.

In short, this site is LAME! It appears that it is a blatant attempt to make money through advertising. I highly recommend you don’t waste your time with this site.

[Wii-Records] Best Scores - Wii Fit

I recently stumbled across this site that I thought was pretty cool. Wii-Records stores the top scores for all Wii games including Wii Fit. The way the site works is simple. After you register for a free account, you simply pick the game and category you wish to post scores for, and then upload a screen shot of the game with your score. It’s that easy. The folks at Wii-Records will then review your screen shot and approve your score as long as it’s valid. I am real interest if any of you are using Wii-Records already?

Hula Hoop Fool

I have been out of town for the past week or so and unfortunately I got off my regular Wii Fit routine. To start this week off my wife thought it would be funny for me to post a video of me doing the hula hoop. I look completely ridiculous and hope you get a few chuckles out of it. I will post some stats later as I get back into my routine.
