I think Pixy hates Americans.

My preorder still shows $89.99

Ravenous

I got an email for a survey on this thing and it seems pretty neat. I like the variety of stuff and abilty to help posture and so on. I dont see how that piece of plastic is going to hold a 300lb fat ass though. Hell Im 5-10 and 175lbs and Im worried Id break it.

Im interested but only if it gives a real work out. I work out everyday so if this gives me some variety and actually works, Im in.

At the risk of sounding like a threadcrap...to me, this seems like the biggest joke of a "video game" ever made.

How in the world is this actually supposed to be something you can use to work out? The video I saw of the girl "hula hooping" was the saddest thing I've seen in years of seeing video game previews.

I just do not understand what the big deal is about this peripheral.

Maybe you need to try it out before judging it. I don't think anyone here has, but it has to be fun or else it wouldn't have sold so much in Japan.

FantasticVSDoom

I think it will be fun as hell and I have to resist buying it because if I bring one more piece of videogame equipment in the cramped ass apartment, my wife is going to shit a wii. But Im pretty sure its not going to be replacing anyone's exercise routine any time soon, and those that don't they arent going to start ramping it up any time soon.

You talking about the video I posted on the other site? If so, shame on you dude, that video was badass!!

I have

So my preorder was $89.99 when I ordered it. Then I checked yesterday and it was $79.99. Now it's showing $89.99 again. Called Amazon, and they said it was a mistake yesterday and everyone will be chared $89.99 again. Is everyone's order showing this as well? Or am I just getting screwed here...

UncleGramps

I'm wondering if I should keep my preorder even at $90 since all indications are that it will be in big demand. I can rationalize it as an early birthday gift for myself.

The Bus

You mean it won't replace the Girl WODs?

FantasticVSDoom

Probably not, but maybe inspire some new Wiifit girl WODs... Hmmm, I may be on to something there so maybe I will buy one.

I always thought this video was awesome:

mrmagoo

That was soooooo funny, but I am still excited about this thing none the less

mrmagoo

That royally sucks my delivery estimate is anywhere between june 3-9 and I too was also bumped back up to 89.99. Oh well, as long as I get one, my fat ars can wait a little extra longer. For those of you who preordered this and are having second thoughts, I think this thing is going to be very hard to find, if nothing else you can always ebay it
