Nintendo Wii

You've got to get one Skippy - we love ours but i warn you, they bring out the competitive streak in you ....I get up an hour before hubby to make sure I beat his scores [:D]

I love the wii fit, especially the yoga exercises. The motion plus is much better than the normal controls. We got ours free with Tiger Woods game.

There are loads of different packages and bargains out there.

I've got the biggest loser fitness and weightloss game so will be on there ...on Monday [:D]

We bought one of the kids a wii last xmas. He played on it over the xmas holidays and it was never touched after that. We sold it to the neighbour with 7 games.
Son is more interested in xbox live. Cant keep him off that.

Just to add. Asda do a cheaper version of the wii controller.Its about half the price of the wii one but its just the same.

There is no way our daughter will give hers up. We will be playing it tomorrow as parents are here and dad will want to see if he can beat hubby at bowling again!

I can't wait until she gets the Wii fit. Must be better than freezin to death in the garage on a treadmill and looking at a brick wall!

I enjoy the wii fit it's good fun, but I soon lose interest and if I miss a couple of days I miss the week and so on....but that's just me!

[kallis3]

I wish we had it as I have the incentive now having dropped below 11 stone when I got on the scales this morning!

Even did some running with the dogs when I was out with them earlier.

My decs are all down and we're all spring cleaned again now, looks bare and I feel deflated, going for a long walk soon and then hopefully I'm feel a bit more upbeat! x

[kallis3]

I've taken some of the cards down - mainly so mum can see the birds coming down to feed on the nuts and seed which are down!

The rest will be done tomorrow.

[Shining]

I would have probably left it until Sunday but we're off to Manchester tomorrow through until Monday x

[kallis3]

I hope you have a fab time Lesley.

If you've got a Wii and it's connected to both Internet and TV then you must download the (free) BBC iPlayer channel. I guess most of you will have heard of the BBC iPlayer but they brought out a special version at the end of November that works perfectly on the Wii and makes watching programmes you've missed so much easier.

We downloaded it the other day when our recorder was switched off by accident so we missed various BBC programmes and watched them all

[kallis3]

That's something I never use - I either Sky+ it or don't bother.

[Julie]

I use the iplayer, if I've forgotten to sky+ something. I have watched it via the wii too.

Now has anyone got any tips on how to use the wii when you have a hyper active dog in the room! [:D]

[Skippy]

I didn't realise you could do that. We got the Wii today and it's completely addictive!

Dave's beaten me at everything so far so I'll have to do something about that!

[kallis3]

We shall be setting ours up later and Dad is hoping to beat hubby later.
