Wii Fit is a poor excersize program

[A Black Falcon]

I seem to remember science saying similar things about Brain Training and how well that actually works, that is that it doesn't work as well as they claimed... but it's not surprising in either case, Nintendo definitely overstates what you can accomplish by playing in those games. They want to sell more copies, overall, and SOMEONE probably will actually see that benefit... but of course, exercise programs are all somewhat questionable in terms of long-term benefit for most people, so Wii Fit is in good company really. :)
