Last week we told you about Nintendos revolutionary Wii Fit game (if you can call it a game that is) and that Nintendo had announced a release date being April 25th. The one thing that was missing in Ninty’s little announcement was the small matter of a price.

Nintendo have finally announced the price you’ll be able to get your hands on Wii Fit for in the UK and it is £69.99. So, if you have just signed up to one of those fancy health clubs, over-priced annual subscriptions, it is time for you to try and get out of it as quick as they managed to get you into it.

For your 70 quid you will get the Wii Fit game itself and the Balance Board so theres no need to go out buying it all separate. Nintendo have also said that the Balance Board will come in handy for about 10 other new games, so it looks as though we won’t be limited to just sweaty Balance Board experiences. Maybe my skateboarding theory was not all that far off!

The news of more Balance Board games to come has made Wii Fit even more appealing, knowing that your £70 will be still be money well spent after you have had enough of Aerobics and press-ups is always nice to hear, unlike those Health Clubs! It seems that Wii Fit will not only save you a few pounds in body mass but a few pounds in the wallet too.
