The Future of Gaming

Let us accept it that we, being adults, too are die-hard fans of video games.

Small cartoons with small and dull gadgets are now replaced with realistic heroes and he has now ultra modern guns that can shoot bullets, arrows, lasers and many times even bombs!

Nintendo Wii Fit - What a Blast

Wii Fit must be connected to a Wii console for it to work and must make you fitter than you were before since 'Fit' is in its name. Makes sense, doesn't it.

Released in May 2008 to mostly positive reviews, today this beauty is the biggest selling console anywhere. Nintendo's latest innovation for the gaming console gets the gamer off the couch and, who knows, could make this the end of the plump, lazy gamer.

Wii fit is a game using the incredible Balance Board, designed for this game, which concentrates on helping players keep fit. It tracks your balance, and after completing a move it shows you in dramatic fashion how your centre of gravity is moving. While the overall focus may appear to be on core muscles, the Strength Training exercises do contain some arm and leg exercises, such as Push-Ups, Side Plank Combo, and Basic Lunges.

Scoring is generated by accurate repetitions, which are recorded by the Balance Board, or in some cases the Wii Remote such as for Triceps Extensions. On a daily basis, the time spent exercising is deposited into the system's bank, and as credits are deposited, new activities and difficulties are unlocked, rewarding the user for continuing to use the Wii Fit.

Someone told me recently that his doctor is recommending Wii Fit to him as it's much less boring than exercise! Wow, this phenomenon really is going places. By the way, before anyone says you can do all these things without this console, there is remember, the added benefit of having the game track your weight and progress, help your form and timing with each exercise, and pair the strength exercises with yoga exercises in ways that make sense. The programmes are actually in some form of order for your ease of use and for your encouragement to continue.

The Wii Fit is just so much fun and all the time you're excercising that body without really much effort. If you've got one - great, if you're thinking of getting one you will certainly not be disappointed.
