Posted on March 10, 2008

Unfit Wii players don't have to wait too much longer to get "fit" or at least to achieve Wii balance. Wii Fit will be released on May 19th according to a WSJ article that you can't read unless you subscribe. The game and companion balance board created quite a buzz when they were announced last year.

The videogames business, after hitting a new sales high last year, this week plans to showcase new technologies to help spur further growth -- including a new product from Nintendo Co. to get users to exercise using their Wii game consoles.
Nintendo announced today that it will ship a new exercise product on May 19 in the U.S. called Wii Fit that comes with a weight-and-motion sensing device called the Wii Balance Board.

The game and Wii Balance Board is rumored to cost about $70. In case you missed it you can see a video about Wii Fit here.
