Hi,

This might be useful for some references, a study from last year:

"Conclusion: Playing Wii Boxing achieves an adequate intensity that provides cardiovascular benefits, and both games elicit energy expenditure levels that could contribute towards the ACSM minimal recommendation for weekly EE"

and the department of health in the UK approved Wii Fit (old news):

Cheers,
Floyd
