I can't resist a $20 price point. I'm surprised, actually. That seems very reasonable.

I'll be looking to pick this up, I've already dropped down from 360 to 350 pounds after using wii fit for about a year. I love the wii! great bargain for what i consider a great fitness device.

As your abysmal weight loss shows, the wii is no substitute for proper diet and exercise.

What ever happened to taking a walk outside every day? I've never had to lose weight, cause I never was overweight. I don't really watch what I eat, I just moderate whatever I do eat... if you really want to lose the weight, take a stroll outside and stop stuffing your face with food. Unless you've got some hormonal issues or a glandular problem or something of that nature, then it can be a pretty tough time getting rid of the extra weight, I suppose.

I'm gonna try Mystile's all-pudding diet, as it seems to have worked for him.

I picked up on it, but why point it out when it was already pointed out by Kevin?

"great bargain for what i consider a great fitness device."

Unless that wasn't the comedy bit he was reffering to, that statement is however funny to me.

Actually, the Balance Board can't handle your weight since the limit is 330 pounds, you are breaking it.

I love Joystiqers voting down the guy that says "take a walk outside and watch your portions."

You guys are the best.

I'm assuming there are alot of people that don't like to walk... Just to bad they aren't forming and angry pitchfork mob, that'd be a sight. A bunch of angry fat people chasing someone, when after 5 yards they are out of breath, give up and settle their depression with a hoagie.

Wait... what? How is this not the same price as the current Wii Fit bundle? Oh, so they don't have to lower the cost of a game that's been out for how long now by a tiny margin.

Err, so is the $100 bundle Wii Fit, Balance Board, and Wii Fit Plus? For some strange reason, I was actually almost interested in Wii Fit recently, but the price is kind of ridiculous. If they lowered it to $60 or something, that might be reasonable. I don't understand why they didn't do what they did with Wii Sports Resort with Wii Fit ($50 for game+addon) because the development costs on Wii Fit can't be that much more than Wii Sports Resort.

You're going to have to get this one used from eBay, because Nintendo rarely drops the price on their games. Especially the really big ones, like Wii Fit. Super duper double especially during this generation.

Yeah, that's what kind of sucks about this generation. With the Gamecube we had the Greatest Hits or whatever series (maybe that's Playstation) with great first party games for $30 or less, but it looks like Nintendo has become too greedy this gen.

Companies drop prices when demand starts to die out, sadly (for us) the best stuff stay high in demand and doesn't need a price drop.

I dunno how much it costs to make a balance board, but it certainly takes up a bit more plastic than motion plus and takes more room for shipping.

Never drop price is pretty much literally in the Blue Ocean strategy, sadly enough.

If he is genetically predisposed to being overweight like that, that means there isn't much he can do about it. And for people like that, their weight is healthy for them. 350 pounds may not be healthy for you, it may be for him. It depends on his genetics. And if he exercises, then chances are that he is indeed healthier than the guy who is an ideal weight and doesn't exercise.

They say ignorance is bliss, but in your case, it make you look like a stupid prick.

I'm not saying that 20 bucks is a bad price but COME ON! If you want to do push-ups you can do them without a ballance board. If you want to head soccer balls go outside and play real soccer. If you want to hulla-hoop you can do it without a balance board.

Wow. $20 bucks is awesome considering Nintendo charges $35 for wii fit replacement discs through their customer service department. (Stupid idiot daughter and her bad game handling caused me to need another disc.) I'm glad I didn't buy it.

I've lost 42 lbs in the last year, and 18 of those lbs were because of the Wii Fit. It only took me 2 months to lose those 18 lbs but I actually move around and make an effort, and I also watch what I eat.

I don't consume processed foods, junk food, or fast food.

I went from 190 lbs to 148 lbs and I'm still going strong! I hope to make it to my goal weight of 130 lbs. I'm between 5'7" and 5'8' so I think that's a perfect weight for me.

I can't go to a regular gym for reasons I don't want to get into, so this is a great compromise.

You will only see results if you make other changes in your life and if you work hard.

You can't eat junk food and work out for 20 minutes and expect to see a difference, it doesn't work that way.
