How to Hook Up a Wii Fit

The Nintendo Wii uses motion sensors hidden in the remote controls to provide a unique gaming experience. Add-ons, such as the Wii Fit balance board, expand the console's capabilities into the home fitness genre so you can have fun while you work out. Once you've got the Wii Fit out of the box, sync it with your Wii console to begin playing the fitness games right from the comfort of your own home.
