Some people prefer playing video games to exercising, but Nintendo has found the answer. Their hottest console yet, the Wii, has a game coming out in 2008 that will help everyone, from the old to the young, get fit.

Wii Fit is a game that uses a pressure board, called the “balance board”, that connects to the Wii console. The board not only measures the body mass index of the gamer, it also assesses the center of gravity. During the course of play, the game itself calls for the gamer to use a number of yoga poses, with the help of the pressure board, to correct posture.

Technology and yoga: a perfect pairing to get gamers up and moving!
