Wii Fit US release scheduled for Q2 2008

[wraggster]

Perhaps a sign that America is finally getting its obesity scare under control, Nintendo has cautiously scheduled Wii Fit for a Q2 2008 release. Despite last week's rumor, today's announcement is the first official word from Nintendo that its latest balancing act is being prepped for the US. Whether that means the board's 300-pound weight limit is being increased to accommodate US standards or Nintendo is simply gambling that Americans will have shed a few pounds by next quarter (to prepare their summer beach bodies, 'natch) has yet to confirmed. So how's your body mass index loookin' for the Q2?

I am unable to purchase this fine gaming device, since I do weigh in at over 300 pounds. Granted I am almost seven feet tall.
