How much does a Wii fit generally cost? Everyone keeps talking about them and they sound fantastic.

I think the only way to get a WiiFit these days is to check the stores....Gamestop gets a small amount delivered but the go quickly, at least that's what I was told.

Thumbs up

I got my Wii!!!!!!!!!

Yay!

So, finally, we found a Wii/Wii Fit bundle and I have been on it like CRAZY since setting it up! I am ADDICTED!!!!!!!!!

This is SO MUCH FUN!!!!!!!!

(I even blogged about it. http://3fatchicks.com/diet-blogs/ful...07/15/wii-fit/ Heeeeeeee!)

I'm seriously excited!



And motivated WAY more than I thought I would be (and WAY more than I am about going to the gym).

Awesome!!!

After my first 60 minutes on the Wii Fit, I decided to re-take my fitness profile thingy and I reduced my "fitness age" by--get this--19 years!!!!!!!!!

Awesome!!!

I'm sold! Best $600 ever, if you ask me.

(Amazing what a little blip-blop-bloop from a computer and some motivation to keep my balance right on yoga poses or keep the steps going in the right direction during a dance/step class will do for a gal!)

Hope everyone who is out there shopping for a Wii Fit gets one soon too!

OMG. I want one of these SO BAD! I was leaving work the other day and one of the employees was walking out with 2! I asked her about them and she said she found them at the store and bought two, one to keep and one to sell on ebay. She told me she'd sell it to me, but I am her supervisor and I know that's not a good thing to do.

Man.... that super stinks. I coulda had one. I was SO CLOSE!

If you are looking for a Wii Fit, you should sign up for the Wii Fit tracker.

http://wiitracker.com/wiifit/

They will email you when the wii fit is available online.

We got our Wii at Fry's Electronics, and managed to find the Wii Fit at our newest Super Target store. I love the boxing, hula hooping, step aerobics and balance games. My DH and I have really been having a great time with it. The Wii sports which comes with the Wii console is fun and gets you moving too. The bowling and tennis are particularly fun, plus we're both pretty competitive.

Only thing that's sad is how chubby our little "Miis" are! LOL

We had luck finding them at Toys R Us. They usually will place an ad in the Sunday paper and then have some available as soon as they open for business (but not much longer). We've bought a couple of them at TRU like this (one for us and then back again for friends who became addicted to ours..haha!)

Good luck..they are so much fun!

I got one last Saturday! I was down in Montana visiting my parents and lucked out at Costco where they had about 12 piled up at the front. One of the workers said they would be gone in an hour or 2. My kids have been hogging it, but I can't wait to try it out!

I have one too!! I love it, though I've recently abandoned it for the gym. I'm waiting for this heat to break, the fan just isn't cutting it when I exercise at home. Eventually, I want to incorporate both the gym & the WiiFit into my schedule. The WiiFit is sooooo much more fun!

It makes me happy when it cheers, and unlocks a new exercise for you. Of course, I also like making the little Mii's. I just need to run in place or do something as I'm creating them

I got my Wii & WiiFit on ebay. They were new, perfect, and at a good price (I can't remember what it was now, but I remember being excited).

I'll be watching for any challenges!

I'm with you about going to the gym while the AC is so good there.

I have Miis of my friends and family and I love seeing them show up in some of my exercises. LOL So much fun!

I've been doing Wii Fit every day for 43 days now. Only two days were less than 60 minutes. Woo hoo!

Step on. Great! Ready!

I had to seach for wiifit as one word to find posts. We have a Wii Fit and I love the Yoga module because it halps me maintain form better than the videos I usually use. The strength training is pretty cool too-I like how it matches to Yoga poses. The running I can live without (bad knees so I only run if I'm being chased.) I like the hula hoops but I'm not really keeping up with it. My worst is what the Wii Fit measures most-balance! I think my hips are out of alignment-time to see the chiropractor!
