Wii Fit coming to North America May 20th |
Since its release on December 1st in Japan, Wii Fit has become a phenomenon in that country, selling over a million units and virtually completely selling out, much like the Wii itself. Sales of the game have done well, but a general upswing in Wii sales has also resulted, with other titles suddenly flying off the shelves. But will it be a hit here in Lard-Ass North America?
Originally the game was supposed to be released in the first quarter of this year, but Nintendo was not even able to meet the supply in Japan. But now, with a May 20th release, we of the North American continent will hopefully soon be shedding some pounds and getting fitter.
I feel a bit sorry for all the broken balance boards that are to come in this country, but the hour is nearly at hand and many have been waiting for this in order to get a bit healthier. Sure, these same people who will get fit by using the Wii, could have done it on their own by going to the gym or just exercising in their livingroom on their own, but in our society a video-game is a far greater motivator.

“Lard-Ass North America”
You hit the nail on the head my friend! America used to be the land of the brave. Now it is the land of the obese.
Haha, do you really think that someone will get fit by standing on that stupid plastic piece of junk? Please people, go do some real exercise; practice some sport or get into a gym and train for real…
This will be good for not only adults but kids as well. I work out 5 days a week, and will probably still use this some. Yet, my kids will benefit as well, since I will not allow them to go to the gym yet,
So for all the flamers, leave it alone. I bet you are probably the fat ones.
no fit,
seriously man. u dont stand on it and do nothing! have u ever heard of step aerobics? its a very effective form of cardio exercise and the Wii Fit incorporates this as one of the many functions it can do.
its an excellent idea and a great alternative to paying for gym memberships and leaving home and a busy lifestyle. im looking forward to getting one as soon as it becomes available. way to, Nintendo for thinking outside the box!
still, it is amusing that they need to make a bigger one for americans!
