Wii Fit or Wii Fat?
Nintendo's exergame wrongly labels kids overweight, claim obesity experts.
By Ben Silverman
When a 10 year-old girl from the South-East of Britain stepped on the scale of Nintendo's new game Wii Fit, she expected to get the blood pumping with some fun, casual
exercising.
Instead, the game's software told her she was fat. Understandably, her father wasn't happy.
"She is a perfectly healthy, 4ft 9in tall 10-year-old who swims, dances and weighs only six stone (84 lbs). She is solidly built but not fat. She was devastated to be called fat and we had to work hard to convince her she isn't."
