Way better than WiiFit. It seems to get the idea of a workout game right. I play DDR and it is a great workout, but it is first and foremost a game. A game that happens to give you a good workout. High scores to go for, etc. In WiiFit you can go for a jog, but all you do is watch someone on screen jogging. Here you have to jump, change lanes, etc. Perfect. Sometimes it's the simplest technology that works the best. This looks like a great complement to DDR. Wow – this game looks fantastic. Way better than WiiFit.

There have been loads of games with DDR style mats, but only one Balance Board so far. Also, in the inner tubing game... "Its is foolish to oppose me, Star Fox. You will die just like your father" Seriously, that tunnel really reminded me of Lylat Wars/Starfox 64. It seems a bit less intuitive and more generic than Wii Fit to me.

The only thing I would worry about is whether the power pad moves get overly complex. It seems to work well enough though. It looks like fun.

So $30 cheaper than Wii Fit. --Josh This game is $59.99 from what I have seen on Amazon.com. So $30 cheaper than Wii Fit.
