And I mean a SHORT update.   To the tune of about 3.5 feet tall.  Apparently the Wii Fit is for everyone.  Here, my son shows the proper some semblance of form for playing the “Table Tilt” balance game (his favorite).

For this game think ‘Labyrnth‘.

But instead of two wooden knobs to move the ball bearing through it’s course, you use your whole body to steer the balls into holes by shifting your weight via the Wii Fit balance board.  It ain’t easy.

    “It ain't easy” is right! I only sank one ball out of maybe a half dozen. It's really hard! I bet it's easier for a 3 foot person. Center of gravity is lower? Well, that's my excuse anyway and I'm sticking to it. Enjoy!!!

    Hi Kathy,
    I like the lower center of gravity theory. Even though he has his own “mii” set up for his height and weight, he really has to shift his whole body different directions, it's hilarious to watch. He got to level 5 today. He also did the run where you pace yourself behind your 'guide' until you reach the finish line. He gets up on his tip toes and runs really fast – blowing past his guide. The game makes him wait until his guide catches up. My wife was in stitches. Personally, I think he is just a show off.
