Wii - help needed

[maddog04]

the mrs wants a new console as opposed to a used one but she wants to go and get a fit board to do some training/aerobics/WHY in front of the tv
I have no knowledge at all of the wii so what will I need to buy to get her up and running on boxing day?
I would be grateful if you can point any good deals at me too
cheers

They do 'packs' with everything you need - have a look at this one £180 all in http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.213-9380.aspx
Just need to get the batteries and away you go

thanks lads, does that Currys one come with a game (I can't tell if the picture of a green woman is a game)?

[Gingernutz]

Yes Wii  Fit Plus is the name of the game

I think with Paul's career in mind he is probably well equipped to provide this kind of advice .....

Kinect here as well


or maybe go for a walk and do some sit ups and save some dosh

Because it can measure your center of balance, the wii fit board is really good for Yoga beginners.

I think I might actually try it now I have a ceiling over 6ft high!

[maddog04]

had a butchers around and £164 seems to be the going rate across the board now for that set up, can't even find it cheaper on the net and the shops I've been in won't entertain haggling.............foccers :rolleyes

Buy a basketball for a fiver

Drill a 10mm hole in it.

Go down the beach and get a bucket of sand.

Find a funnel and insert in 10mm opening

Pour

Fill in hole with silicone

do a couple of rounds with gaffa tape to keep it all in

And put it in the cupboard next to the wii fit

We brought one last Christmas for the 'Family'

Used it about twice and it has sat gathering dust ever since. There arent even any decent games to buy for the thing to use it for something else- get an X box! :'(
