I was thinking about the discrepancy between the wii-fit and the powerpad. I am not sure if obesity is a larger problem now, we are more sensative to our health or some other things. In my mind they target the same market. The powerglove in a way shares a lot of similarities with the wii-mote, however the glove was poorly executed, as anyone who has ever used it knows.
All of that to say, will wii-fit be a big craze? Do we have a different culture? Will it eventually be bundled like the pad was? i think these are some key determining factors when estimating the stock.
My wife and I bought the wii with the idea of using it as a party system. We live in a 900 sq. ft. condo in Orange County, CA. We aren't upgrading any time soon and it is hard to play 4 player tennis with out hitting someone. Golf, Bowling, Mario Party 8 are all fine as they dont require us to move the coffee table and hit each other. I think the wii fit looks like a great idea in theory, but for us it may be impractical, just because of our living space and lack of wanting to move the coffee table. We may be a select few, but definitely a perspective worth noting.
