1UP Reveal Wii Fit Launch Date?

@feitclub: THat's an interesting issue you've brought up... Peripherals are usually region-free (even though Wii is not region-free). So, do you think that you can import the US +size WiiBoard and use it on your JP Wii?? (or do you have an imported US Wii?)

The Super-Size Me edition, coming soon to the US.
What size will the European version be?

My feet are size 12 so I think the JPN board would be too small for me (sigh)

@feitclub: I think its just the board is a bit small, and they dont want people like slipping or falling off of it lol.

Since Ive seen it out of the package and it is kinda small.

"Plus-sized" balance board? Oh shit, does that mean I shouldn't try to buy Wiifit in Japan lest it shatter under the weight of my fat American ham-hands? I don't know if my wife can wait until May to play it.

This date would be absolutely awesome seeing as the semester will be done by then. I could never play Wii Fit in front of my piece of shit roommate who I never talk to! Good show, Nintendo!

@Plunkett:

Plunkett you should come to beverly hills. I think there is enough plastic on people's faces to spread the rockband love around the world.

@scorpi: No, it's why Rock Band's still not out in Europe and Aus - the game might be easy to localise, but getting hold of enough plastic to get the peripherals together is not.

Wow, that sucks. I was expecting a late January release date - although putting anything two weeks from Brawl-day is dangerous. But still! Six months to localize a game? Doesn't that sound ridiculous?

If anyone thinks theyre gonna lose weight on a wii fit they have to be out of their effing minds. I run 4 times a week, lift, eat right and its still hard as hell for me to get in shape. I'm not going to lie i hate the wii fit with a burning passion, it makes me sick. Just get smash brawls in my hand so i dont have to think about that monster gimmick!

@okenny :): i wonder what light they do that in.

"THIS JUST IN: Nintendo DOESN'T LIKE US ANYMORE *sob* Where's the triple vanilla bean icecream when you need it T_T"

or are they calling them out like a desperate boyfriend?

Those beans look good too. I haven't had baked beans since Thanksgiving. Luckily "blowing one's load" isn't the euphemism Plunkett had in mind or that graphic would have been far more interesting.
...
I seriously doubt this is an accident as they usually double-check these posts before they go out. If it was though, they may have to add another company to Dan Hsu's list.

Nintendo of America is so lazy late to bring something to america. Nintendo said it would be out by christmas of 2007. Where are nintendo games and no more lame games. where is the dvd and color wiis. where is earthbound 1,2, & 3 or 3d.

Dont mess with 1up and EGM, they are too edgy now!

Huzzah!

Anyhow ... Nintendo will come in and do their typical, "we didnt announce a date yet" and we will all still wonder, and then the Euros will know, they can expect it by 2012!
