Wii Fit

Here's an introduction to the Wii Fit.

Seems pretty cool, eh?

Check out this spoof - watch the whole thing, it's hilarious.

LOL.

I want a Wii.

That looks cool.
Not sure how simulating hitting a soccerball with your head makes you fit...

I'd totally get that if I had a Wii.

When I read the title, the sick side of me thinks...

"Why would you want to play having a seizure?"

Just where would you put the wii-mote? Bonus points for loss of bladder/bowel control?

Waitaminute here.
This commercial's racist.
Black people dance and Asians do yoga.
Psshaw!

That second video was very funny. I watched the first thinking, "Wow, that is so cool." Then, I watched the second and thought, he's right, that's kind of lame. Such is the power of well-delivered snark.

Check out Sarcastic Gamer's take on Microsoft Surface, right there on the sidebar when you watch the second video.

Buying our Wii was a mistaken impulse buy. I love the technology that went into it but since that first weekend we've put in a grand total of about 30 minutes of playtime.

I admit I thought the Wii Fit thing was pretty stupid but it is cheaper than most of the crap home exercise equipment people buy and at least it can be used for other things.

I love our Wii, but I don't think the Wii fit will be in our future.

That's exactly what happened to me.

I know we won't buy it, but I could see us getting it as a gift. (I'd prefer the steering wheel, which will be out soon.)

The Microsoft Surface one isn't as funny, but the last couple lines make it worth it.

Boy wants a Wii. He is using the whole exercise thing as a way to try to get me to buy one.
