I’m not dead - I’m not even comatose, and according to Wii Fit I shouldn’t be pushing daisies any time soon either. It’s a bit hard to judge its long term worth when you’re spending a week reviewing it, but I’m confident it can guilt people into losing pounds by the feel of disappointment you get from the cutesy balance board.
Elsewhere, I also reviewed Tokyo Police Club’s debut album and was rather impressed. When the album’s right, it is absolutely spot on and leaves you missing the songs when they’re not blasting out of speakers - which is quite often given the band’s seemingly psychological evasion of anything longer than 180 seconds.
aw - i wished i’d known you have wiifit - i’d have plagued you with questions about it all day. xx
That was fast - but it also saved me finding the piece of paper you scrawled your blog URL on, so thanks for being a timesaver!
Wii Fit is an interesting piece of kit, and my thoughts on it when I wrote the review are largely the same as they are now. If people treat it as some magical fitness cure then it’ll be quickly stashed away at the back of many a cupboard, but it does a fine job of keeping you aware of when you’ve let yourself go…
