Game systems revisited - healthy?

Back in January, I bought a Wii game system because the sports game really appealed to me. I do have fun playing the games, particularly the tennis. Now, a new game is about to released into the North American market, but earlier reviews are coming out strong: Wii Fit.

Apparently, you can exercise, do yoga, play games and even do the hoola hoop. I am a believer that these games can help get people up and moving. Of course, there's no substitute for getting outside in the fresh air, but many people can't do that, particularly after the long and snow winter many of us experienced.

Here's to hoping I can get my hands on one.
