Guest guest Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 It works with the remotes that come with the wii. It is just a charger stand that will hold two wii's, a battery pack of rechargable batteries for two wii's and new backs for the remotes as they have to be able to connect to the recharger stand to recharge.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 Even the Wii Sports that comes with the unit gets you up off the couch and moving, and it was fun. I had a blast playing tennis with my hubby and my arms were a little sore. Wii fitness is my next move!

It comes with the recharging station for two remotes, two battery packs of rechargable batteries for two remotes, and two back covers for two remotes. Works great! I highly recommend it. It cost $30 at Wal-mart. Wii fit has both positive and negatives to it. I will tell ya both. Negatives: ~It assigns a category to each mii such as obese, overweight, normal and underweight ~If you miss a couple days getting on the wii fit it will say something like where have you been you couch potato. If you gain weight it will ask you why do you think you gained, and give you options to select like: Ate too late, etc... Positives: ~You can skip the body test and go on to the games, skipping the above if you so desired. ~ The games are a blast ~There is yoga, strength & training, balance (they are awesome), aerobics. The more you do on wii fit the more games that get unlocked. ~If you are on there more than about 30 min or so it will tell you that you should take a break, get some water, and not overdo. ~Your exercising and not even knowing it because your playing games or doing yoga. Yoga has both stretching and strength training. Just about most any yoga pose you can think of is on there. Its very well balanced. You get a trainer of your choice, and they show you the moves then do them with you. It is encouraging. Balance has games such as tight rope walking, snow boarding, skiing, ski jumping, marble balance, penquin eating fish, soccer, bubble rolling, that's just some we have unlocked. Aerobics has hula hoop, hula hoop super, running, jogging, step aerobics, trying to think what else and drawing a blank but you get the idea.

He loves playing it....and you're right, it gets him off the couch. What is the 'recharger' you mentioned? Is it to recharge the AA batteries in the remotes? If someone doesn't mind, tell me about the 'wii fitness' game. We are always looking for ways to get in more exercise around here.
