There will be tons of swag to be had including copies of Jillian Michaels’ new Wii game "Fitness Ultimatum 2010" and Wii Fit Plus boards, as well as other prizes from Sports Authority, Nintendo and Nike. This is all to celebrate Sports Authority's collaboration with Nintendo which will allow Sports Authority to sell Wii gaming consoles, Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus, as well as various accessories and games for the Wii, in its stores. To launch the product and to help customers get to know the Wii better, Sports Authority will create a "We know fit. We know fun." experience at 102 of their stores. The stores will feature a dedicated area with a demo unit and knowledgeable trainers to help customers try the Wii Fit Plus before they buy! They are also running a huge giveaway event starting Thanksgiving Day through Christmas Day. You can find out more about the event on Thursday as well as the holiday giveaway event by visiting www.thewiiauthority.com.So what if you don't live near Torrance, CA or even near a Sports Authority store? Well Sports Authority wanted you to be able to participate in this celebration too! So they are giving away a huge prize worth $139.98!
This giveaway has ended. Congratulations to our winner: Sue E!

I tried a friend's Wii fitness and some of the things are a bit tricky, but it's fun. You're working out and don't even notice. I've also done the sports one where you bowl, play tennis, etc. It was a great time, we made a party out of it. I learned that the first time you try Wii fitness, you'll probably be sore the next day!
I love the multiplayer option! I have the regular Wii Fit, and enjoyed playing it at parties, but the lack of multiplayer made it less fun than it could be. I can't wait to try the new version!
If I'm lucky enough to win, you can reach me at chara (at) mailpanda (dot) com. Thanks!

Sounds great, I could really use this!

I sooo need this - I'm having a hard time getting to our fitness ctr, and I have really 'Backslid' the last month - ever since I had a severe Gallbladder attack while out-of-town and had to be in bed for 5 days - then developed pneumonia (from being in bed for 5 days!) so - yea! Need this! Wonderful how you can track progress, chart BMI, fitness levels, etc. Also great that more than 1 can play - easier (and alot more fun!) when you have a 'buddy'.
I'm a follower - great blog - wonderful giveaway!!!!
I'm an E-Mail subscriber of 'My 4 monkeys!" Thanks for the great giveaway!!!

I learned that if you already own Wii Fit, you can purchase the disc-only version of Wii Fit Plus for only $19.99 (MSRP). This disc comes with all of the features + activities of the original Wii Fit, plus 20 brand new activities + more. Your original Wii Fit profile + history will automatically transfer over to Wii Fit Plus so you can effortlessly continue with the Body Test + training activities.

I learned that the Wii Fit Plus can be multiplayer. I always figured it was solo.

I learned that Wii Fit Plus works best if you perform a Body Test every day. In this test, you'll use the Wii Balance Board to measure your center of balance, Body Mass Index (BMI), and body control.

This isn't a game, its a whole way to change your life. With it being able to work everything from cardio to balance it has helped me so much after recovering from a knee injury. Going to the gym makes me self conscience because I am afraid something will happen there, running scares me because lord only knows what would happen if I was immobile alone outside.

I didn't know about the goal setting or the ability to customize the workout. Those would both be helpful.
