In this ad, Nintendo says it had Wii Fit researched by Japan's National Institute of Health and Nutrition. About time! The game's only been out for over a year.
The researchers found out that doing the Wii Fit hula hoop game was the equivalent of "light walking" or playing golf without using a golf cart.
Wait, the Wii Fit hula hoop game is the equivalent of light walking? Light walking is not only considered an ideal low-impact exercise, but it's also totally free. Last we checked, Wii Fit is not free.
Good thing Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto already said Wii Fit's purpose is to make you fit. Oh wait.

What a load of crap. Why concentrate on the "hula hoop game" as being an example of criticizing wii fit? Why not mention the running "game", which forces you to run/jog fast to do well. You can really break a sweat on some of the later levels. If you stick with it, Wii fit can stress your body much more than a light walk. Dumb article IMO.
