It could if people like the game so much and really want to lose weight for the other people they will just do a game and then go of it. So for some people then can lose weight for others they wont bother.

Answer 3

A passing fad designed to reap maximum profits

Answer 4

I think Wii fit is good for people who don't want to go to a gym, or find it hard to find the time.  My husband has lost six pounds (he's in the obese catagory too!) and I've noticed that he is a bit more careful in his eating habits.  I like the fact that it spurs him on and congratulates him!  The real problem is keeping it up though - it's easy to put it off till another day.  In fact, my mii is asleep!

Answer 5

I believe you can lose weight with if you work at it. I'm definitely feeling the benefits of the muscle workouts on wii fit.

Answer 6

da wii fit doesnt weigh you properly. It might say you are overweight and you arent, but it is still really good fun!

Answer 7

I have a friend who has one and he has lost over a stone in weight and is toning up nicely, 'hoolahooping' on it! Think it will make exercise fun for those who do not like to go to a gym.

Answer 8

No it won't. People won't tire them selves out for a video game.

Answer 9

My sister has it and I've played on it. It's not fun & It just tires you out quickly. I could get better exercise just walking around the garden for 5mins.

Answer 10

I've had the Wii Fit for nine days and I can honestly say that it motivates me to exercise every day now instead of sporadically  as I had been doing beforehand.  That is exactly why I bought the Wii Fit to begin with and have been more than pleased with it and with the extra added bonus of having lost two pounds!  I feel more energized, as well.  No way do I feel that the Wii Fit is nothing more than a clever marketing ploy by Nintendo...it really works (at least it has for me).

Answer 11

im perfectly normal

dont blame the game for telling the truth
