When I heard you were going to be able to create a seamless workout routine I was expecting to have the new and old games as part of that routine and that wasn't the case. You can only choose from the yoga and strength exercises. I had the Wii Fit already and found myself doing the free step all the time because of the ease of use and constant activity and was hoping to make the games easier to add to my daily workout without having to go back to the menu. Overall the new game is fun but not quite what I was hoping for. I can see why it's only 20 bucks.
What's great about it: The new games were a lot of fun!!
What's not so great: The not so useful new Routine option
