After seeing the astounding success of Wii Fit worldwide, there is no surprise in seeing similar games been released into the market in this season. This time the turn is for Wii Active life, a very similar game to wii fit, but this time aimed to kids.

The main idea of Wii Active Life is to make kids exercise even more by using the wii virtual console as a tool to have fun and why not move and try to loose some calories !

The game comes with a special Active Life Mat Controller, which looks similar to the kind used to play “Dance Dance Revolution” games and has colored shapes on which to place your feet. With the mat on the floor and the Wii remote in your hand, you'll jump on a trampoline, slide down a slick pipe while avoiding obstacles, leap hurdles, sprint across a path of raised stones, speed skate through an obstacle course and much more. And all of these sweat-inducing activities happen from the comfort of your living room.
