'Wii Fit' for Mom's Day? Wal-Mart thinks so
MSNBC - May 2, 2008
Submitted by apujanata (29) at 6:50PM PST on May 3, 2008
Walmart.com pushing exercising program ahead of May 19 launch... This weekend, the Walmart.com homepage will be dominated by the Wii Fit — a physical exercise program that uses a pressure-sensing board as a controller — including a link to order the product now, ahead of its May 19 U.S. launch. Through May 11, shoppers who "pre-order" the $89.74 game, or pay in advance to guarantee delivery when the game launches, will also get a $10 online gift card to use for a future order at Walmart.com.

N. Planning 'Biggest Ever' Marketing for Wii Fit
GameDaily - March 20, 2008
Submitted by Just_Ben (7) at 8:53AM PST on March 21, 2008
Michael Pachter reveals that he's "learned that Nintendo of America intends to support the Wii Fit launch with the biggest marketing campaign in its history." It suggests to me that the marketing will be broad-based and mainstream, meaning beyond the normal online and game magazine ads. My guess is we will see advertising on TV during American Idol, Oprah, etc. as opposed to ads on MTV during Punk'd.

I follow the Amazon charts pretty closely, and I can tell you that it is not as representative of NPD as you might think. For instance, neither Wii Fit nor Mario Kart has for one moment since they started taking preorders ranked below either version of GTA4. No one really believes that Mario Kart is going to outsell GTA out the gate.
The PS3 versions of games for some reason also do much better at Amazon that NPD. For example, the PS3 version of DMC4 was ahead of 360 the entire time before the game launched.

In theory, you could do manual calcuation like you described, but that is a hassle.
If they system can also keep track (history) of your pets weight, isn't that also nice ? (I know that it can keep track of user weight history in Japan version, but not sure about the pet weight).

What I wonder is how the Wii Fit handles carpeted rooms. I don't have a hardwood or linoleum living room.

alexanderpas posted on Wii Fit (Wii) at 12:42PM PST on April 25, 2008. Article: Miyamoto Wanted Wii Fit To Weigh Pets, TooNintendo design boss Shigeru Miyamoto had wanted to include a mode that would allow players to weigh their pets. He wasn't able to include it in the Japanese version, but in the North American version, available May 19th, players will receive a message informing them that if they weigh themselves while holding their pets, then weigh themselves again separately and subtract the two, the difference will tell them how much their pet weighs.

I wonder : Will a "fat" Mom be offended if her son / daughter bought her Wii Fit, a device that might be interpreted as "you-think-I-am-fat, don't you" kind of gift ?
Can those who heard about this kind of situation (whether through friend or forum sharing) share their take here ?
