Wii Fitness

Recon

Anyone know when the Wii Fitness thing is coming out and while it be out before Christmas? I was looking on the nintendo side yesterday and couldn't find anything about it.

I read on PlayAsia that it has been released in Asia and that stocks are very low. I wouldn't expect it this side of Xmas. Wikipedia suggests that it will be available in the US and Europe 'sometime in early 2008'.

wondering if there will be a weight restriction on the balance board.

I can't see it being too small if they want to sell units in the states but it looks a bit flimsy for a big strappin bloke such as meself.

don't want to shell out 80 quid on it only for it to break in half while i'm hula-hooping like a mad thing

The dancing part of that video is so cringey!

I can't wait for Wii music..

146kg (300lb).

Thats almost 21.5 stone.

(Remember, they had to build these things for the American Market!)

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

Ideally Nintendo would like to launch a same-sized Balance Board worldwide,[2] although after receiving feedback from Wii Fit's Japanese launch Nintendo may decide if an "American-sized" Balance Board is needed, as the japanese model is designed to support people weighing 136 Kg (around 300 pounds) at most.[2]

I'm sure it will be, but I'd imagine that the game it comes with won't be compatible with your European consoles. Not much use without a game, is it?
