Dark Zero: Wii Fit Review

Dark Zero writes: "As a game made to appeal to the casual crowd Wii Fit easily tops Nintendo's other efforts. Once you put the disc in you are ready to go straight away with no typical gaming start screen popping up at all. From there you are asked to select your favourite Mii and then enter your DOB and height. Then you move onto the core of the game, step up onto the Wii Board for the first time and take a Body Test. After a few seconds you height, weight and birth date will be combined and you'll be told if you're Underweight, Ideal, Overweight or Obese.

You can then perform a few more tests for it to determine your Wii Fit Age. The game explains that the closer this is to you current age is the better, and the further away the less fit you supposedly are. Interestingly, for a game based on keeping fit it will never put your exact weight up on screen if you don't want it to, which is a nice extra should you want to show the game off to a few friends without getting embarrassed. Be warned though, Wii Fit is still not all that sympathetic, and if you're overweight or obese it will show your Mii holding his big chubby tummy after you weigh yourself."

Kindda surprising actually. All games are from Nintendo.

There's landslides and then there's this. Wouldn't be surprised if the top 50 was mostly Nintendo games.

Paytaa2133d ago

The only other game's that cracked the Top 15 aside from Nintendo were Halo 3, Halo Reach, and Halo 4.

EddieNX 2133d ago (Edited 2133d ago )

Good. I adore Halo!! It's the only online shooting game for me.

The Wii was a beast! The entire top 10 selling more than 10 million units each!

FallenAngel19843255d ago

Just like the DS list, every game on the Wii's list has sold over 10 million. Not even PS1 and PS2 did that. That's very incredible
