Wii Fit sells 1 million

Japanese go Wii Fit crazy

The Japanese have gone exercise crazy with the Wii Fit game.

One million copies have been sold since the game was released at the beginning of December.

It is currently not being sold in other countries, and, according to reports on the web, Nintendo is not giving details yet of the whens and wheres.

However, the hype caused by the game and its popularity in Japan would suggest that all around the world, Nintendo Wii owners could soon be seen doing star jumps in their living rooms.

Wii Fit uses a wireless Balance Board that contains pressure sensors to detect the gamer’s movements during games of hopscotch, ski-jumping or "chase the doughnut" (...hmmm).
