John, Great Yarmouth , “Good perspective and honest”

+ Fun, innovative, great concept in playability, Unique

- Some games that are available should really be left to playing with a joystick and not to use the unique concept in controlling technology that the wii has to offer.

Keith, Wrexham , “Game playing PC user.”

+ Easy to use. Good fun to play with for a few hours.

- Looses its appeal quite quickly. Needs a lot of extra bits. Collects dust. Takes up space. Only plays games, doesn't do much else useful.

Holly, Abridge

+ Great fun, love the fact that it's totally interactive and different to usual arcade style gaming - in fact, I brought it for this reason & so probably won't be buying standard games (controlled with standard remotes/joysticks) because I love the interactive experience, and so that's what I'll be using it for & the style of game I'll be buying. Also - my boyfriend, who usually hates computer games, really likes it too and we've had a good giggle whilst competing against each other in sports games.

- I was REALLY dissapointed that it won't play CD's & DVD's, I think they missed a trick there.

Kenny, Pontypool, South Wales

+ having a 5 year old daughter, I would not be happy with a computer game that would let her just sit there. The Nintendo Wii Fit gets her up and actually gets her to do a little excersise while playing at the same time. She loves it.

- Obviously aimed at the older market as my daughter does have problems with the Wii fit picking her up when she's on it. Also, the sensitivity used at the point of jumping on the ski jump balance game is not set for kids. She loves to play on the ski jump but more often than not the Wii Fit board does not recognise when she has jumped and she crashes into the snowball.

+ This is a great product and is worth the money just for the wii fit, the balance board is very sensitive to movement and the scales accurate. the balance games are great fun and some of the yoga positions and muscle workouts are quite demanding combined with some of the fun aerobic activities this makes this product a true aid in keeping fit while having fun at the same time.

- Although you got all of the above it would also have been good to have extra controllers even if they were offered at a reduced price. When i first reviewed this product it was on offer at a lower price and it then went up when I purchased it and then was reduced again, I think this was unfair.
