I have really enjoyed it so far. I think it gives you more options than the Wii Fit, as far as not having to switch back and forth between exercises. You can make custom workouts with fun activities.

I still enjoy the Wii Fit as well, but it’s nice to have several different options.

Happy New Year! 

Share your favorite Wii game!

I think mine is a cross between Wii Sports and Wii Active.

What are your favorite Wii games?

I’ve learned so much from you, and hope I’ve provided you with some good information as well.

I’d love your input as to how I can make this blog even better.  Wii fit running and Wii fit yoga are popular topics on this blog.  As we continue to talk about those two fun features of the Wii fit, what else would you like to see featured on this Wii blog? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Thank you again for posting on my “WiiScoop” blog! I started this blog as a hobby, and am just so happy to see there are others here that like the Wii just as much as I do! 

I hope everyone is having a great weekend! 

Happy Gaming,

Did anyone get a Wii, Wii Fit, or any other type of fun vidoe games or consoles this holiday season? How are you liking it?

I have not played Wii sports in a while, but just played again today. I forget how much fun some of the Wii games are! I also enjoyed Wii Play and We Ski. My niece enjoys (which is an understatment, lol) My Sims.

When I saw the same question on my earlier Wii Fit Yoga post, I decided to investigate.

Today, after I finished the warrior pose, a message popped up saying that I should combine the Warrior pose with the lunge. I kept thinking the lunge was a type of yoga pose, perhaps one I hadn’t unlocked.

However, the lunge is in located in the strength training category. The lunge and the warrior pose work on the same areas, so therefore your trainer lets you know they are good exercises to do together.  This is good to know, however, I wish the Wii Fit provided a way to make this happen without having to go back to the main menu.

All in all, I do enjoy knowing which strength training exercises and yoga poses are nice combinations. It’s something I had not thought about until now.
