My wife I and are wanting to get an interactive game console mainly for fun and exercise since we don't have time to go to a gym regularly. Something that will give us a workout and not just sitting on our butts playing a vidoe game...like one with interactive tennis or racquetball, etc.
I have no idea whats out there, I know there are several out that have this with optional parts/accessories....someone point me in the right direction.
A friend of hers has a Nintendo Wii thats says it gives her a workout, but looking at what I can find online looks more like it's geared to her kids and it doesn't show it requiring much physical activity, but thats just the impression I got looking at it online.
 
Virtual Reality game consoles, thats what they are...anyone?
 
We have a Wii. I wouldn't really look at it as something for excercise, more of an entertainment.

I have watched the kids and my wife play Dance revolution and I guess that would do the trick.
 
actually boxing for the Wii can be a decent workout if you try to think of it as such. Try the boxing game it's fun and a decent workout, if you shadowbox with good form. We borrowed my nieces one night for a party and before anyone got to the house I played the boxing game for 90 minutes and it was a pretty decent workout. I was thinking of getting a Wii just for that part of it. I was thinking of playing the boxing game with wrist weights would be one heck of a work out.
 
Cool, I think we are going to wait till after the Christmas rush and then go see what all is on the market and play as many as we can find and what other friends have and see where it goes from there. Basically all we do now is run on a treadmill but that gets old fast, and in summer I water ski 3-4 times a week, but in the winter I get lazy, need to find something to keep in some sort of shape cause with age its starts going away fast, each summer I never reach the level I was at before :)
