There is a sequel entitled ''Wii Fit Plus'', which makes the original game pretty much obsolete as it contains everything the original does and more. A second sequel, ''Wii Fit U'', has been released for the WiiU. It is accompanied by the Fit Meter, a pedometer that tracks your physical activity and calories burned outside of using ''Wii Fit U''. The data can then be synced to your profile in the game. The female and male trainers are set to appear in the new ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' as playable characters. [[MemeticMutation Is your body ready?]]

Of course, there is some debate as to how effective it actually is as a weight loss tool (and some research show that ''Wii Sports'' is more effective in that respect). So be aware that YourMileageMayVary.

As with any gym or exercise regime you'll get out what you put in. Many of the toughest exercises are also the ones most easy to do even without the game (eg. running, press-ups or jacknifes) and the rest could easily be provided by some yoga and aerobic exercise videos. What Wii Fit provides that videos and willpower don't is a regular schedule and encouragement to keep on going along with the ability to match your progress against earlier efforts.

--> --'''Reggie Fils-Aime''', during ''WiiFit'' demonstration at Nintendo's E3 2007 press conference

Remember how your parents told you playing video games would make you gain a bunch of weight, lead to bad posture, etc, etc? This game aims to prove them wrong.

''Wii Fit'', part of the {{Wii}} Series (which includes ''VideoGame/WiiSports'' and ''WiiPlay''), is an interactive series of exercises, mainly using the Wii Balance Board. These exercises include yoga, strength exercises, aerobics, and fun little balance games. The game also keeps track of players' body mass index and weight.

Aside from the fact that it's a huge seller, and the balance board it comes with is already being used as a peripheral for other Wii games.
