I walked into Tesco in Dundee (Kingsway) on Friday morning and had no issues getting it. It was 65squids in Tesco.

It's fairly good, my girlfriend was really impressed with it, and the balance board is a really good piece of hardware.

Personally, i'm not sure the games are enough fun for me to keep it up, but as someone who more or less refuses to go to the gym because I think it's the most boring thing on the planet, Wii Fit is a clear winner!

My legs are in agony this morning, and I feel if I can manage 30 min a day, the weight will fall off. Very well designed, very user friendly and good clean fun. Ignoring the sweating...

Mario kart Wii is cool too, however not 100% on the wheel just yet, trying to forget the control pads of yesteryear!

Mario Kart Wii is good, and offers a variety of control methods so if the wheel isn't for you, dump it and use a gamecube pad / classic pad, or wiimote and nunchuk. Personally, I prefer the wiimote combo to all other methods as it seems the most natural layout to me (although a different button layout on the gamecube pad would probably have been better...)

Do we have enough owners to get some online Mario Kart Wii racing?

This will be yet another fitness fad :roll: . Spend your money on a new pair of trainers instead. Get some fresh air and hit the streets.

Lost Wii fit and the Wii in the break up with Alison :( (well it was one of her birthday presents :D )

Still - the PS3 and Gt5 and the steering wheel make up for it :thumbsup

It's fantastic! Especially the balance games...the football is brilliant trying to dodge shoes and everything.

Also the snowboarding and the hula hooping are fun too!

We will get Mario Kart and join in on line - count us in and let us know when!
