Nintendo Wii Fit Plus with Balance Board

Wii Fit Plus combines fun and fitness into one product. It can change how you exercise, how you balance, and even how you move. Expanding upon the original Wii Fit software, Wii Fit Plus is packed with every feature from Wii Fit—plus new exercises and tools to personalize your exercise routine. By playing Wii Fit Plus a little every day, you, your friends, and your family can work towards personal goals of better health and fitness.

The Wii Balance Board™ accessory was created from the ground up to work with Wii Fit. It's an innovative peripheral for Wii that's simple, fun, and it's a great way to get you off of the couch and into the action. The Wii Balance Board can read your real-life movements and bring them to life on screen, just like the Wii Remote™ controller. Realistically snowboard down a mountain or walk a tight rope—it's just one more way to get into the game.

Have fun with up to eight friends or family members, and take turns using one Wii Balance Board accessory to play nine different games in the new multiplayer mode.

Check your daily progress in Wii Fit Plus with easy-to-understand charts and graphs. The orange line you see in the center of the graph represents your BMI the first time you checked it. From then on, it's easy to tell how you've done since you started using Wii Fit Plus. You can also set goals, check your Wii Fit Age, and even enter exercise time you've done outside of Wii Fit Plus.

When you first play Wii Fit Plus, you will be asked to set a goal for yourself concerning your BMI. You can set goals, including what timeframe, and where you’d like to end up. Goals appear on the calendar and your graphs, so it's easy to visually see your progress as you approach your goals. You'll also receive feedback from Wii Fit Plus, updating you and encouraging you towards meeting these goals.

Wii Fit Plus provides simple graphs detailing your progress in your BMI, weight, Wii Fit Age and Fit Credit, as well as a calendar to monitor your training and goals. You can compare the calendar and graphs with up to 8 people on the same Wii Fit Plus game, so the whole family can get involved.

Record the time you spend exercising outside of Wii Fit Plus on the Fit Credits graph using the Activity Log. Simply select it from the menu and enter the amount of time you spent doing light, medium, or heavy exercise. When you start comparing your activity log and calendar to your graphs, you will see the positive affect your activity level has on your BMI!

It's easy to change your User Settings in Wii Fit Plus.

• Edit Profile: Change your height, birth date, and set a password to protect your information from other users.
• Change Design: You can change the calendar color and stamp design.
• Change Trainer: Change the gender of your trainer.
• Delete User Data: In case you'd like to remove your info completely from Wii Fit Plus.

Trial mode is available for anyone who wants to try out Wii Fit Plus without the commitment of creating a new profile. You can quickly determine a new user's Wii Fit Age, or have them engage in one of 15 different fun exercises. Your friends can use Trial Mode if they want to try Wii Fit Plus.

Your center of balance, the point between your left and right sides when you are standing upright, has a lot to do with your health. Those without an even center of balance will be unnaturally compensating for this imbalance, which causes their posture to become misaligned, increasing the possibility of putting unnecessary strain on their body. Wii Fit Plus can help you learn more about your balance, and give you tips on how to improve it.

Wii Fit Plus works best if you perform a Body Test every day. In this test, you'll use the Wii Balance Board accessory to measure your center of balance, Body Mass Index (BMI), and body control. Based on these results, you can also determine your Wii Fit Age. You can chart your daily progress and compare it against previous results, as well as other friends and family who play Wii Fit Plus. Wii Fit Plus includes six training modes and more than 60 exercises and activities designed to help improve body balance and fitness.

With Wii Fit Plus, you can install a channel in the Wii Menu so that you can perform a Body Test and view your graph without having to insert the Wii Fit Plus Game Disc. For example, if you happen to have the Wii Sports™ Game Disc in the Wii console, you can still check your weight via the Wii Fit Plus Channel without switching discs.
