The Wii Fit certainly generated tremendous buzz when it was initially launched by the company, whereby Nintendo claimed that their technological marvel promotes better health as it encourages people to exercise while playing games on the console. Nevertheless, according to the latest study conducted in University of Mississippi, it seems that the results collected from the study shows an opposite effect. The results pointed out that there was no significant changes in the overall family fitness after the family got the console for their home. And what’s even more shocking is the fact that the Wii Fit usage declined 82 percent over a period of 3 months, whereby the family initially used the console for half an hour, and subsequently reduced to just 4 minutes a day.
Well if you are thinking of getting the Wii Fit to increase the overall fitness of your family – think again!
