The pad where the players interact with the game can be used by a single person or two players. There are a variety of mini games such as speed skating, mole stomp, mine cart, log jump and the running game.

When Nintendo released its latest system (the Wii) it aimed to get the entire family involved in not only gaming, but also becoming more active. The Wii Remotes are used by moving the controller through the air to interact with the game. It uses two points of light which communicate with a sensor. What’s important here is that this allows the user to involve their arms and sometimes their entire body. No more stereotypes about couch potato gamers here!

The first thing that sets this game apart from any other game, when you take it out of the box, is that it comes with the Wii Fit balance board. This connects to the Wii and allows you to do a variety of interactive exercises and more, which interrelate to what is happening on the screen. (more…)
