If you are trying to find out which Nintendo Wii games are the best for keeping you fit, then this article will be of interest to you. In this article we will take a look at the key features that make the Nintendo Wii different from all the other consoles, and then we will look at the top 3 Wii games for exercise which include (in no particular order, Wii sport  Wii fit and Dance revolution.) By the time you have finished reading the information presented within this article you will know which games will get the maximum fitness benefits out of your Nintendo console.

Before we go into any specifics lets take a look at what distinguishes the Wii from its competition, as well as what makes it so popular. The unique selling point of this console is its technology. The technology that it uses allows the player to use his or her own movement to play the game, so rather than just sitting on your sofa, you can actually be up on your feet burning calories. As a result of this USP the Wii has become extremely popular with children and adults alike. Now that you know what makes this console stand out from all the others lets look at the top three games that can help you to keep fit.

 Dance Revolution2

In at number three, we have a game that goes by the name of  Dance Revolution. The great thing about dancing is, it is fun and it can help you to burn calories, and you get both of these benefits when playing this game. This game involves the player doing certain dances steps in time to music, it keeps the player interested and can potentially be played for hours before they get bored. By this time you would have burnt off several calories and had a very good cardiovascular workout. Now that we’ve looked at Dance Revolution, lets take a look at which game gets the second spot in out top 3 best wii games for fitness and exercise.

 Wii Sport Bundle

In at number 2 is Wii Sport. This game come free with the Nintendo Wii console, and it is an excellent game to play if you are trying to keep fit. The reason why is because it involves the player mimicking the actions performed in real life sports. There are five sports to choose from, these include boxing, tennis, bowling golf and baseball.

Sports are an excellent way to lose weight and keep fit, because they can be fun, but certain sport can be quite painful as well, i.e. boxing. In this game you get all the enjoyable parts of boxing without the punches! At number 2, I highly recommend this game, so if you are considering getting a Wii, go for it, because this game comes free. Now let’s take a look at which game gets the number 1 spot for fitness and exercise.

Wii My Fitness Coach

The number 1 spot goes to a game called Wii Fit. This game gets the highest spot because it is tailor made for the individual who wants to keep fit while playing their console. This game has a lot of helpful features i.e. it works out your body mass index and it allows you to track your fitness progress. There are four main training modes which include strength, yoga,  balance and aerobics. This game has something for everyone and is highly recommended. It is clearly the best game for fitness, so if you haven’t already got it go and get a copy.

Now that you have read this article you should know what has made the Nintendo Wii so popular with adults and children, you should also know which game (in my opinion) is the best for keeping fit.
