  • Wii Fit expansion details

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

Wii Fit Plus:
-Calorie burn counter
-Workout routine management (customized by User)
-User can customize specific durations of exercises in this mode (before it was tied to difficultyfor score keeping purposes)
-Wii Fit routines (pre-existing workout routines)
-21 additional activities
-Quick navigation between activities

So far, it looks like people are waiting to see if there will be an online data tracking system of some sort. The pricepoint is likely $19.99 USD based on the announced Japanese price point of ¥2,000.

They have announced that Wii Fit Plus will retail without the balence board for only $19.99. Not bad.

Yeah, that is pretty solid. They're not stupid, they know who their audience is and their tolerance for pricing, even if it is just for a select few games (Brain Age and Personal Trainer games included; although Walking was WAY to expensive).

In general, the game companies have to incorporate proper tiered pricing. $20 does not necessarily equal cheap/shitty game but that seems to be the stigma publishers and a lot of consumers can't get past, a few exceptions aside
