As for the anticipated release of Wii Fit in the United States, the title has finally been given a $90 price tag. Wii Fit includes the software (game disc) and the Wii Balance Board. Since its release in December in Japan, it has sold more than 1.4 million units. It will be interesting to see how many will be snapped up in the U.S.
The pressure-sensitive Wii Balance Board extends the required activity from the player to the rest of the body. The board is used for an extensive array of fun and dynamic activities, including aerobics, yoga, muscle stretches and games. Many of these activities focus towards providing a "core" workout, a popular exercise method that emphasizes slower, controlled motions. Family members will have fun staying active and talking about and comparing their results and progress on a new channel on the Wii Menu.
