What's great about it: Interaction with the computer graphics, etc
I purchased the fitness board with the Wii console. I have had so much fun every day since I purchase the console and board. The graphics are clever and fun - I have to admit there are days when the program says things in conjunction to the seasons, date, etc. and it actually has made me giggle a few times. The workouts are real. You put into it what you want, but you have fun at the same time!

My wife and I tried it, as avid fitness enthusiasts to have some variety on our workout/cardio routine, and we were expecting an interactive fitness workout/video, and instead it was just silly games with weird looking avatars and no cardiovascular benefit whatsoever. The only positive part is having the interaction to tell you about balance, weight, BMI, etc., but you can get that anywhere.

I'm really impressed with the Wii Fit. It is encouraging and lets you know how you are progressing. The work outs are fun and sometimes don't feel like work. I've definitely improved my balance in a few short weeks. It doesn't hurt that it's user friendly and appealing to all age groups.

What's great about it: monitor and records weight
What's not so great: not as durable as yo would like for the price
The games with the Wii Fit are nice not sure how long this will continue to get used but it helps monitor weight and gives tips for how to improve your overall health. 300 lbs max weight not that either of us are anywhere near that but you cannot get to crazy or you could break this board.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: easy set up, fun games, good workout variety
What's not so great: Emphasis on BMI as a metric for health, lack of more cardio options
I found the Wii Fit Plus quite simple to set up and start using. I've enjoyed Wii Games for a couple of years and had tried out the Wii Fit at a friend's house. When I decided that maybe playing on WuHu Island (the fictional island where a lot of the sport happen) would be nice over a gray, cold winter, I decided it was worth giving the Wii Fit Plus a go.
I've owned it for a month and I average about 70 minutes a day on it. I use it more for a mild workout than I do the games, but I like them as well.
The best feature in the Wii Fit Plus is the My Wii Fit Plus, which allows you to choose what you want to work on physically, choose how many exercises in that category you want to do and just let the workout flow from game to exercise to game.
While I DON'T like the emphasis on "toning" (there's no such thing. Either you're putting on muscle or you're not), I enjoy the variety in the strength and yoga exercises. As a former martial artist, I also enjoy the emphasis on balance, though I wish there were a better way to check for form over the entire body and not just through the feet.
But the main takeaway for me is that I will use this an hour a day and find it an interesting and engaging workout. While it's not a great workout for someone who is already an athlete, if you have a swivel chair profession, this will be a definite help.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Delightfully fun with lots of variety of activities
The variety of activities is very good so you're not bored using this. I can do this every other day and still be fascinated. Unlike a treadmill which is drudgery. I like the hula hoop one, the skate boarding, the ski jump exercise...you're moving your body and sweating. It's Great!
The balance board exercises are fascinating and challenging (and safe - I don't see how you could hurt yourself on this).

What's great about it: fun, lightweight workout
What's not so great: expensive, no cardio
I love my Wii Fit Plus. I use it probably every day to every other day and it's perfect for me.
Before you buy you should know understand that this game doesn't really work for people who want/need to do a lot of cardio, or to lose a lot of weight. I'm actually "skinny fat," i.e. I'm underweight but kinda flabby and weak with bad posture. Since I work long hours and don't need to lose weight, I have no real motivation to throw away my limited free time at a stinky gym. Wii Fit Plus is a good compromise. I got this to strengthen and tone my muscles, do yoga and just get the blood pumping a bit. Since the workouts are short and fun, I have been able to stick with it. The strength training and yoga are less fun but they work pretty well.
My husband uses it too, but for him to get results he has to combine with another workout game with cardio.
I LOVE the snowball game!!

What's great about it: Nostalgia
I was on the fence about whether to get the Wii or the Xbox. Ended up chosing the Wii because I could get all the old Nintendo games I used to love growing up. So far, its been tons of fun and I'm really glad I chose it. The games are more unisex, whereas with the xbox, they tend to be directed more to a masculine audience.

What's great about it: Easy to play, good price, keeps me motivated, can track other info with it
I bought this to add something new to my workouts, something that was low-insensity due to a recent injury, and I can't get enough! I've logged 10 hours in 3 weeks. I use it morning before work. I love how it tracks my time, I can set goals, and it keeps me motivated to try and beat my high score. It may seem to start out slow, but as you start unlock new excerises and add more reps/time, it can be a great workout. I feel guilty if I don't get my 30 minutes in every day. And although you need some space for movement, it works well in our small living room. I can't wait to get back on it!

What's great about it: Fun, easy to use and it keeps track of my progress
What's not so great: repetitive wording and the little noise the board makes when you step on it...beastly
This program is really getting me up and motivated. I love the personal trainers and how they actually know what your doing. A little repetitive but you can easily skip through most of this. I do find it a bit time consuming but worth it to keep tabs on what I am doing and how progressing. The games are fun but I have already outgrown some of them in a month..
