I know you can do the aerobics together, but not sure how many titles support 2 boards, the balance games are alot of fun though.

if you're looking for a good tool to stay active and track your weight, wii fit is great. but the fun factor goes away pretty quickly. the board can be used with other games like shawn white's new snowboard game. haven't tried that yet though.

The wii fit is awesome. I get on everyday and it's definitely accurate on my balance, weight, bmi, and strength. It yells at you when you don't workout at least every other day. Anyone that hasn't tried yoga should on the wii, you'll see how sore you are the next day. Buy it for your fat kids.

Wii Fit is fun, to a point. It got old for me. I don't want to do yoga, and to unlock features in other areas, you have to do yoga. I get plenty of exercise on my treadmill, bike and weights. The snowboarding is pretty good. Better than Wii Ski. I haven't played it much, though, since on the Wii, I have been obsessed with Tiger Woods 09 lately.

Is the Wii Fit board worth it? I would say yes. It is a unique game controller.

My wife has. She is definitely starting to tone up, especially her legs. Yes, sure you can do the workout without the wii but it makes it fun, especially to see results and the way it tracks your progress. I have done the strength training and I am getting my stability back( I have had 4 knee surgeries and the last one was a big one)Also doing the push ups. You don't play the wii fit, you are actually working out. If you do the yoga correctly, you will realize that it is working...the next day.

BTW, we only really started to use this very consistently since Dec30th(started our new year resolution early) we did use it before but not everyday, more like 3-4 times every 2 weeks.
