A blog on thatguywiththeglasses.com (a.k.a. Nostalgia Critic's site) as a clip of "the View" (a.k.a. the biggest waste of airtime ever) and them complaining about the "Wii Fit" saying "liek, OMG! The gaame liek said liek, the kids were fat! That's so wrong! IT's all about having liek, fun!" and other poop like that.
Gawd, this is why gamers never show or tell anything to these morons.
1. It's BMI, not weight
2. BMI is not accurate for children! That's because they're constantly growing.
3. If the kid is fat, they're intercourse ing fat! Get the intercourse over it!
4. Soccermoms, find something better to do!
5. Wii Fit isn't even a game...it's the most basic of all basic workout software
6. First they hate the never ending "violence" in gaming, and now they have tons of non-games and they're still whining!
Those are just my thoughts...
Gasp, my game is telling my fat child he is fat.
Wow, people are so stupid about stuff like this.
I mean darn, you're buying a game to lose weight and you expect it to not make fun of you? If you even think that is being made fun of anyway...
I don't think a kid would even care about the whole stats screen or whatever... seriously...
"WHAT?! I ONLY WEIGH 350! I AM NOT OBESE! BRB SUING NINTENDO AND RAGING"
Well atleast 2 out of the 4 (maybe 3) seem to be open minded enough to understand
Wii fit. (Atleast).
Why would children play this Non gamer Wii fit piece of dirt anyway?
I'm sure they (they as in Nintendo) is making games that can utilize that board for games like
snowboarding or skateboarding!
Now, thats fun!
(of course I"d never be on that thing).
Anyway, the view is just a bunch of "chicken heads" that squawk about everything.
:-\
Ridiculous.
Wow, that comment about Wii Fit is a pile of bullpoop.
Seriously, if you're fat, admit it, YOU'RE FUCKING FAT!
I love the poopstorm people stir up when the truth they so chose to ignore, slaps them in the face.
Wow...
People actually watch The View?
Is BMI ever accurate?
Kids these days are such pussies. I remember my worst fears in gaming would be getting a game over or losing my saved data, but for this generation it's being called fat and Mr. Resetti. -_-'
Most kids make fun of fat kids, so maybe that's why they're whining about the game calling them "fat." You'd think they would get over it by now.....
Well, when I though the that the wii fit Bull poop scale is totally off. Like almost 6 pounds off. If you ask me it dosnt need a moron to realize it measures your weight on how you stand it on it period. You can totally cheat it. The scale at my doctors said 158 the digital scale at my house said 158. The intercourse ing Wii fit balance board said 163.5
Making me over weight for my age and hight. :/ But thats bull poop, cause I'm fit. No six pack but a flat stomach :/. So wtf? She needs to get over it.
Also I think the wii balance board does that on purpose so you buy it and actually use it.
I think I found another one:

A story sourced to back to Newsblaze maintains that a California fitness guru by the name of Michael Torchia plans to file a class-action lawsuit against Nintendo.
The Newsblaze story, in fact, reads rather like a press release and links back to Torchia's marketing site. As to the supposed lawsuit, its basis is described as follows:
Quote from: Newsbrake articleMichael Torchia's mission is to have Nintendo pull their Wii games off the shelves until they make important changes to their products.
People around the World are sustaining serious injuries due to the lack of proper warnings on their products... Torchia feels Nintendo is misrepresenting their Wii games as a replacement for sensible exercise and sports activities. He believes that Nintendo needs to issue a warning that these games are intended for entertainment and not to replace actual physical activity...
There is a new phenomenon that is occurring as a result of extensive and widespread usage of the Wii Fit and Wii Balance Board. As more people use the Wii as an exercise tool, they are sustaining injuries in their knees, back and wrists because of overuse and improper warm-up...
Michael Torchia, has retained a prominent law firm in Beverly Hills, California to prepare a class action suit against Nintendo...
