TagsWith the news that the Wii Fit has been dislodged from its place at the top of the Wii gaming charts, I ponder the question is it really worth the £70+ that the paying public are being forced to shell out?
I too was part of the obsessive crowd that just had to have a Wii Fit from the moment it was launched in the UK. I trawled high street shops and online offers in a desperate bid to find the package and in the end I had to settle for a £125 bundle pack. Great news at the time, I had my hands on the next generation of video gaming but looking back now with the benefit of hindsight and £125 out of pocket, this was clearly a disastrous decision.
Of course it is fabulous fun the first few times you jump on that Wii fit board and there is nothing more satisfying than flying down a ski jumping slope at breakneck speed but I can assure you that the novelty soon wares off. Unless you are dedicated to losing weight and getting fit, you will have had enough of your repetitive personal trainer and the activities become more of a chore than a fun game to enjoy with the family.
Although all is not lost for exhausted Wii Fit enthusiasts and there may be light at the end of the tunnel with EA announcing their decision to rival the Wii Fit. But as an owner of the latest number one ranking game in the Wii charts, Mario Kart Wii gets the thumbs up from me and is a fantastic game full of hours of family fun.
Forget stretching and balancing, yoga and muscle workouts...get yourself settled on the couch and enjoy the thrills and spills that Mario Kart Wii will guarantee to throw at you.
