We have the Wii set up in the family room and we all have a blast on it. We took it to a family get-together and all the adults were taking each other on in Wii Sports. The guys were trying to best each other in boxing and we were all huffing and puffing. You can definitely get a decent amount of exercise out of it if you apply yourself. Of course there are some games for the Wii that are not like that... my kids like Lego Star Wars for example... but the sports games certainly get you moving! In fact, some seniors citizens homes around here have added the Wii to their activities rooms with great success! Nothing like seeing a bunch of seniors pounding each other in boxing! Hahaha!
