Good Points

Easy to set up right out of the box and then off you go into the world of Wii and Wii Fit. Actively promotes family fun and fitness - watch out it becomes addictive.

Bad Points

It would have been nice to know earlier when setting it up that access to the Internet is required. If we had known that we wouldn't have set it up where we did and we have stuck the scanner bar to the TV stand - so we will need to buy an extension cable for the USB or try and rip the bar off the TV stand.

Good Points

I have a disabled daughter and her mobility is compromised, the Nintendo Wii is brilliant for getting her moving whereas ordinary excercise leaves her cold. The whole family can join in games with her giving her the chance to play on equal terms, she beats most of us at most of the games.

Bad Points

None, just make sure that nothing is in your way when playing!

Overall score: 9.1
