I've been looking everywhere for a Wii Fit Yoga Mat ever since I saw it in the DreamGear Fitness Bundle, and behold — just yesterday I spotted the fit-worthy accessory in the game section of Target, and had to hold myself back from dropping it in my cart (gotta prioritize game accessories in this economy, right?). But I suppose the $30 price isn't too much to spend on my favorite Wii Fit exercise!

What other Wii Fit accessory did I find in the aisles that had my fingers itching to swipe my credit card? Find out when you read more

Wii Fit fanatics, have I got the ultimate product for you. DreamGear has just come out with a Fitness Bundle that includes all the Wii Fit goodies you could ever want. For $60, you get a rechargeable battery pack, USB charging cable, jeli sleeve, fitness mat, travel bag, and one pair of "textured" socks. I've done the "bundle" math on this one, and it seems like one heck of a deal — just the Wii Fit Silicone Sleeves cost $20 alone!

I'm a huge fan of celebrity trainer, Jillian Michaels; she is so hardcore. Not only does she push her clients physically, she pushes them emotionally as well. And they're stronger because of it. To have one hour with her, I'd give my perfectly broken-in pair of sneaks and my favorite wicking sports bra. Since that's probably not going to happen, I guess I will settle for the next best thing – her videogame workout.

Jillian is teaming up with the Wii Fit to bring you Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2009. The workout utilizes the motion-based Wii system and the Balance Board to combine play with fitness. Chances are high that the game is probably more fitness than play. The game is expected to release just in time for the holidays next year. She's incredibly excited about it since she knows that gaming and technology are bigger than big now, and it's a great way to combat childhood obesity before it becomes adult obesity. I cannot wait to get my hands on this and get my booty kicked.

Well, my month long journey with the Wii Fit has come to an end. Although I had a lot of fun (and lost a few pounds in the process), I'm actually excited to take my workouts to the next level! I was never a gym class sort of person, but using the Wii Fit's yoga workouts, really have me itching to get back to the gym and try out a full-fledged yoga class!

Needless to say, I had a blast training with the Wii Fit, and am actually planning on getting one for my parents this Christmas, since my dad really loved the balance games! How have your results been? And don't forget to cheer each other on in the Gaming Fitness group! To see my completed challenge results, read more

Usually GiggleSugar writes about the travails of being a douchebag, but here's a story for the geek history books: An enterprising YouTuber filmed his girlfriend (allegedly without her knowing ) while she played Wii Fit Hula Hooping in her underwear.

And then because that wasn't sketchy enough, he posted it on YouTube! Apparently its viral-ness got so out of control (over 2 million views), that people are even suspecting Nintendo of being behind it — as a viral marketing campaign. They said they had nothing to do with the video, but that they hope she dumped him, too. (Kidding.)

One would assume that with over 24 million Nintendo Wii's sold worldwide, CNN news anchor Anderson Cooper would be up to speed with gaming console trends. Not so much. In this clip you'll see Cooper referring to the Wii as the Why-ee. . . no word of a lie. Thankfully his partner in crime Erica Hill spoiled him for his birthday by giving him a Wii and Wii Fit (wait a minute, he's a Gemini too?!). Let's just hope that his new tech treats will be put to good use. . . and no more calling the Wii a Why-ee!
