    Does it really work?

    My girlfriend was thinking about buying this but does it really work? I´m probably gonna talk her into it anyway so I can buy Mad World and No More Heroes without paying for a Wii, but still, isn´t better to just buy a gym card?

    My dad uses it and it kinda looks like he's losing weight.

    I'd say give Wii-Fit a try at least...plus you get the Balance Board =D

    What do you mean by work? My brother lost 30 pounds with its help, though, and it's more fun than going to the gym easily. It helps with your motivation to stay fit more than anything.

    Of course it works I mean their goal was to rip-off people with a exercise gimmick, totally works.

    Meaning, do you loose weight? Wow that´s pretty cool that it does work, alot of stuff like this are usually just gimmicks. Might give this a try then (and sorta get a Wii for free hoho) :)

    Okay rip-off people yet it works... right. it works and its worth it. It actually has you doing real activities while using the motivation of playing a game. I compare it to brain age for helping your brain.

    Personally, I haven't tried it (and trust me, my fat ass could use it), but two of my buddies have lost 15+ pounds on it.
