Advantages: Enjoyable and relaxed. It's very easy to use.

Disadvantages: Limited range after unlocking all levels.

I bought a Wii Fit recently to encourage my children to view fitness as an enjoyable activity. The Wii Fit game does just this: placing necessary exercises such as development of balance, into fun games, for example, slalom skiing. It is very clearly set out, and easy to use. Also, I like the way it tells you your BMI and weight, and then links it to how much weight you should lose. It also allows you to select your weight loss/gain goals and the period of time you wish to complete them in.

Throughout the activities, you gain high-scores, which can be compared with those of the other Wii Fit players. This has resulted in people spending more time on the Wii Fit, trying to beat another member of the family! This game is relatively cheap and extremely good value for money.

However, your weight naturally fluctuates, and you have to select an option for why you have gained any weight. Sometimes, the options are limited, and there is a specific reason which you cannot choose because it doesn't exist! Also, once you have unlocked every game and exercise, you become limited and it is easy to get bored.

Currently, I have lost over 8 pounds since buying the game nearly two months ago. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wanted to exercise through choice, in an enjoyable, relaxed manor, without having to leave the house. It also tracks your weight loss, reducing the amount of work you have to do.

Summary: Extremely good value for money, very effective.
