One week of “Wii Fit,” and either it’s not living up to my expectations or I’m not living up to my own expectations of myself. What I was hoping would be a life-changing game has only been played twice. In the past week I have played more “Call of Duty 4,” “The World Ends With You,” “Speed Racer” and even “Critter Round-Up” than I have “Wii Fit.” It’s not that it’s a bad game; I just never think that “Wii Fit” is what I want to play when I have time to play games. At the same time, I did one series of lunges yesterday morning, and my legs hurt all day. Maybe it’s really about time I started to rethink what I want to play when I can.
