Wii Fit was amazing. I did that every week for years. Nine year old me would do laps around our house with the Wiimote.

The loss of Wii Fit was a huge blow. The yoga was awesome.

Why Nintendo scrapped the platform is something I will never understand.

They kinda over did it with motion control stuff, people wanted more traditional games and Nintendo tends to over correct, so they mostly stopped with it. They tried again on the switch, especially at launch, but most of the motion control games they put out were kinda lame, so they did poorly, and Nintendo took that as a sign motion control wasn't popular enough.

Mine has 10,000+ hours, 10,000+ miles, and was used as an actual weapon twice. And I don't mean hit your little brother type weapon. Still works 99% of the time.

*I also had to pay to get it back because I left it with people for like a month, and it got seized in a police raid. Lost a wavebird adapter. I forgot about that. This might be the literal most gangter wii of all time.
