It should be one player only, cuz one Wii can only sync with one board. There is a 2 player run game with you can run together with your hubby tho, you don't need the board for that game. It very fun to watch each other playing, that's why I say it's happier to play together =).

Where we can buy the Wii console in YVR ? I do not see the Wii in the retail store even once.

Toys'Rus will have both wii console and wii fit on this coming sat. But just dont expect they have lots. It will be on the flyer

My friend preordered Mario Kart Wii from Dell, til yesterday he still haven't receive the game yet.

thats STUPID. My GTA4 came a week after the releasing date. I would never preorder games from Dell again.

my hubby & i picked it up after cooking dinner last night! it's SOOOO FUN!!!! and it's really tiring too! man, i'm so out of shape & i can't even balance! i got mine @ EB for $89... the thing comes with so many mini-games, i totally think it's worth it!!! but EB told me that they already had one return yesterday because the sensor wasn't working wor...

as funny as it sounds, we have a few games, but the most that we play is Wii Sports (& now Wii Fit i guess...) cus it's a no brainer~

Time for me and caveman to play wii fit with you two~~~~~

作者: Ultraman 時間: 2008-5-22 11:36

Too bad the console can't hook up more than one board for the moment (maybe upgrade/update later?). Or else more friends play at the same time could be more fun!
After playing it for the first day/night, I really feel my fat has been burning wor!

Did you go for the $10 extended warranty? My hubby add that on maybe he thought I might break it eventually haha.... originally it just came with 1 week warranty I don't know why

Haha... surprising my balance is ok but it's really hard to do their posture and at the same time keep the balance on the spot! It's really fun watching each other playing, especially watching my hubby doing Yoga, I laughed so hard!

作者: MiGkYo 時間: 2008-5-22 11:56

u have 1 week to get the EXTENDED WARRANTY from EB... i was told by the sales!
So i am still thinking how "durable" this board is... @__@"~
$10 vs $89... ahhaha... for how long.. hmm....

I think for $89, it's totally worth to get it!!!
U can play individually or as a group... so much laughter over it ahhaa!

作者: Alcoholic 時間: 2008-5-22 12:43

i did buy the $10 warranty lor... cus it seems like too "new technology" to us. i mean, the console... is still a nitendo console, can't be that unreliable. but this whole balance board sensor thingy... just to be safe.

apparently, my Wii says i'm under weigh, low BMI, lack of balance & stability

sometimes its so hard for me because i don't know how to control my COB

my hubby has much better scores than me yet he's 1/2 decade older than me

its hard to do good on the exercises when you have somebody else giggling at you while you do it

Exactly! my hubby laughed so hard when I was playing the balancing games!

It's very funny I was playing 2p run yesterday and my dog was attracted my our moving feet he kept on scratching our legs and feet like cats playing a ball of yarn.

haha i am scared the weigh would kill the board! since i have few ppl playing in the house.. and it's 1 yr warranty w/ just $10... if the board breaks, they will replace the new one for us rite?

seems like the "touch" sensor is pretty accurate... just not sure if the weighing is right..
it seems like it's off by 10 lbs when i am weighing from the Wii Fit...
do u guys have that problem?

I think 89.99 is a very good price, if I have a son, I rather get Wii Fit for him instead of the Rock Band hahaha

off 10lbs more or less?

With the extended warranty they will replace one for you even you break it, that's why my hubby told me, I didn't go together for the pickup.

作者: MiGkYo 時間: 2008-5-22 13:05

10lbs LESS... ahha... very interesting..
coz in another forum, ppl told me that they are 4 lbs MORE... i wonder how accurate it is

Oo... that's nice...
maybe i should consider the warranty, $10 is OK... for a lovely gadget like that!

but really, i asked my coworker who has a son, her son prefers getting mario kart than a Wii Fit LOL!
i guess it's a diff. thing... Wii Fit don't bring u excitement but it will bring u sweatyness... ahha...

作者: katamari 時間: 2008-5-22 13:09

I dunno why I never have interest on Mario Kart series.....

I am not sure about the accuracy because I don't even have an accurate weight scale at home hehe..... but less 10lbs is super off!

作者: Alcoholic 時間: 2008-5-22 13:18

my weight is accurate wor 104lbs... now i don't need to buy a bathroom scale!!

if it's off by 10lbs, i think you can go exchange it lah...

作者: MiGkYo 時間: 2008-5-22 13:22

do u guys stand rite in the middle of the board of u stand right on the board where it has like a square for both feets to stand in?

I think that makes a diff. when weighing?

Well, I don't even have a console... so that will make my scale very expansive..

I dunno ar.... but I think the sensors are within the rectangle on both sides, so I step on them instead of right in the middle every time wor (I didn't check with the manual though....hehe).

Haha just for scaling.... it's very fun to own a Wii if you like to play creative games.

honestly my hubby and I are lazy people, we don't like to do any exercise purposely, walking our dog twice is our main "sport", so I decided to buy wii fit at least we can maintain a certain amount of exercise which we can do it anytime. I never think of by using it I can lose like 30lbs in 2 weeks dramatically... it just a $89.99 game you know haha.

作者: Alcoholic 時間: 2008-5-22 15:09

I step in the middle or in the 2 square dents within depending on the sample diagram on the screen lor. so i dunno.

I think Wii is a good asset to buy. PS3 is nice with all that BluRay sh!t & graphics stuff... but when it comes to entertainment (especially for lazy people), it's great! i even have my MOM hooked onto this whole Wii thing. i get her to stay at my place to play Wii each weekend for 6 hrs by tempting her with offering to cook dinner & make lunch boxes for my bro & sis.

she will be stoked when she tries out the Wii Fit this weekend. it's like made for young people & adults too. it's absolutely great!

作者: Ultraman 時間: 2008-5-22 15:34

Right. I tried stepping in the middle la, it also works well. So I think the whole face can work!

作者: asmok 時間: 2008-5-22 19:03

布小熊, make sure you don't use your new bathroom scale in the bathroom or it won't last very long with all the moisture.

Actually I think both Wii & PS3 are good assets to buy. Wii is more like a family game console (and I feel dumb every time when I played it by myself) where PS3 is a very good personal entertainment console (watch movies, play games, go online, listen to music, view photos...etc.)

終於無意中在Future Shop發现有Wii Console賣,買了一部ｏ現有幾個問题﹕
１.買 rechargeable battery pack 好,還是用普通AA size battery 好? For the rechageable one, should we buy the dock? Future Shop sales personnel told me there is one kind comes with a cord and can charge without the dock.
２‧I think I have to buy another remote, should I buy original Nintendo one. I find there is one game come with a remote for 59.99. Is it a good deal?
３‧ Did you guys buy the extended warranty?
４‧ The Sales associate told me after register the product online with Nintendo, Nintendo will mail 4 remote jackets to me. Is it true?

Thank you.

作者: Mini 時間: 2008-5-24 09:39

1. i'm using rechargable AA battery, not the wii style ones.  if u play wii a lot, i think you should get a rechargable batteries.  it drain out the battery fast.  i won't get the ones that you need to place your remote on the charger in order to get charge.  coz that means when you are charging, you cannot play.
2. i think you are talking about "wii play".  if u like to play those games, it worths gar.  it's like buying a game for $15 only.  so depending on your preferene la.
3. i didn't get extended warranty.  it comes with a 1 yr warrenty anyway.  if u register online, you get an extra 3 months warrenty.
4. you can fill in those online forms after registration to get your remote jacket (it just ask how many remote you have and they trust you. i only fill in 2 and they sent me 2).  but they are ugly.  you may not want to use them.

作者: LoRkz 時間: 2008-5-24 09:46

Went to Toyrus this morning at 9:30am... they say they have a minimum 20 units of Wii Fit per store... turned out they only had 5! WTF.....

Any luck everyone else?

作者: Ultraman 時間: 2008-5-24 10:31

elan7e:
1. Personal preference la. I'm using regular alkaline, and I don't see it drains up the batteries too fast wor (2-3 hours a day). But of course depending on your playing habit, if you'll gonna play it 10 hours continuously in a day for 7 days a week, even rechargeable ones would die quickly la, haha. And I won't go for the charging dock at the beginning. I suggest you to try it out first and see. Just don't listen to the salesperson 100%, sometimes they just want to sell you more!

2. Only if you will have two people play at the same time for some 2-player games. And if you like that game of the package, it's a good deal to have an extra control included; but if you don't really like that game anyways and you need a second control, just simply get another control by itself la.
3. Remember, if you're going to mod it, even the original warranty will be voided anyways! So no point to buy extended warranty!

4. I think the new package includes one jacket in the package already. You only need to ask them for sending you jacket(s) if you got it long time ago.

Have fun with it la. You'll love it!

作者: Alcoholic 時間: 2008-5-24 12:29

last night Twin & caveman was over to try to Wii Fit. it was very tiring & challenging for everybody! such a great deal for $89!!!

as for the Wii, we bought rechargable engergizer batteries & the energizer mini recharger (charges 4 at a time). The Wii balance board needs 4 batteries, so we might have to buy another pack of rechargable batteries... so so so fun!!!
