Let's check your stability during Flip the Bird
There are a lot of things I like about the Wii Fit. I like that it works me. I like that I can choose which exercises I feel up to on any given day. I like (when I'm winning) the competition between Rex and I and against myself in the rankings. I like that I can learn Yoga poses (or some facsimile) and screw up the rhythm boxing in my own living room, because working out badly in my own home is still better than not working out at all because you don't want other people to see how inept you are.
No, I have no issues.
There are a few things I think could be done better, like having to listen to the trainer go on and on after every pose, and having to wait between ski jumps. I don't really need the Wii's conversation when I start it up, either, asking me if the weather is getting cooler and whatnot.
I think my biggest peeve, though, is one I experienced tonight. For the past three nights, my weight has increased slightly. Just a tiny bit each time, so little that the Wii's only comments referred to normal fluctuations and it didn't even ask me about my poor eating habits. Tonight, though, was good. I lost the last three days combined weight plus a little, and what did the damn thing say? "You aren't going to be able to make your goal in the time you've chosen."
WHAT?
No good job, no way to go, nothing positive. So my peeve? I want the option to tell the Wii to SUCK IT.
