At certain intervals, you'll be thrown into battles. These so-called "fit battles" play out like a traditional turn-based RPG. All of your attacks are triggered by completing a specific pose or stretch, with four attack types that target different parts of your body The world will be broken up into courses that, upon completion, reward you with experience points. Levelling up will increase your character's base stats and slowly unlock new skills that can be utilised in battle. Read less

SIGINT

Not loving this game's main mode with all its cutscene fluff, the constant jogging or squatting in place (would really rather just separately go do cardio the next day), and how limited it feels early on (which I am sure gets better with time). I also found that the leg tracking can be "iffy" in an annoying way.

Not loving this game's main mode with all its cutscene fluff, the constant jogging or squatting in place (would really rather just separately go do cardio the next day), and how limited it feels early on (which I am sure gets better with time). I also found that the leg tracking can be "iffy" in an annoying way.

Anyone have experience with other fitness games on the Switch? I like the trainer-like experience where the exercises are explained and tracked and stuff, and with a plan/sequence provided to me, but I'd rather have something that's more to-the-point and efficient to fit into a 30-ish minute block.

Anyway still sticking with this and seeing if I can last for longer sessions without getting tired out. It definitely hits muscles that I have not been working much, which is enough for now... Also looking forward to trying the "rhythm game" mode soon.

I didn't have a consistent environment to play this in when it came out, so I never really got into the routine it demands.

I didn't have a consistent environment to play this in when it came out, so I never really got into the routine it demands. After a couple years working from home with barely any exercise, plus a major injury that kept me off my feet for a big chunk of the last year, I'm in the worst shape I've been in since like 5 years ago. The game seems like a decent way to start building my fitness back up again.

To start, I'm making what I think is a reasonable commitment of 1 month regularly playing this (3-4 times a week? we'll see), maybe slowly adding in some other exercise and seeing how it goes. I mention it here just so I feel slightly worse If I don't do it lol.

Based on when I originally played this, I think it will replace Elden Ring as the hardest thing I played this year. Will report back...

First 20 minutes in, everything hurts.

The game is fun (as fun as this kind of game can be), but the motion detection is so dodgy (specially the legs: when I was setting it up I had to pretty much jump in place to make it realize I was running), I'm not really sure the tech is where a game …

Love playing this game and all, but how do you make mountain climbers not fun? Nintendo, somehow, finds a way to succeed by making it register like ass. Might as well pull the left Joy-Con out and start shaking it if you want the inputs to work.

A surprisingly fun game and a great workout! Takes the Wii Balance Board concept and improves it considerably. You will sweat when you are done! Once again, another creative concept by Nintendo that ends up being better than you think.

I really recommend this game. It's a great way to have a workout while having fun. A MUCH better improvement from WiiFit lol. It has a cute story, entertaining mini-games, gorgeous graphics, and I really feel the burn the next day. Double thumbs up!! 👍👍 Only on World 4 so far so still got a ways to go.

Tried out the new rhythm game feature of this and it's actually quite cool. I really really hope they add a bunch more music though. It's kind of lame to just play the songs from this game and there isn't much else besides that, though the Mario and Zelda songs are awesome.

Every session, I do one more level than I could do before. I haven't yet managed to fit it in regularly but I am proud of myself for trying to hang in there longer every time (ง'̀-'́)ง

Day 1 of Meme Fit Adventure: The first level already made me work a sweat ! (´д`)

The mini games are pretty fun, I just have to get over feeling stupid and the weirdness of exercising in front of the TV. Alone. With a literal ring talking to me. I can do this! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ

My siblings got me this for Xmas! I'm so excited to try it! :D

As soon as I figure out how to connect my Switch to the TV... (tfw handheld mode 4eva)

Got this as an early Christmas gift from my sister at Thanksgiving. I've already played a few times, story mode only, and I am finding it quite fun and a significant work out. I'm excited to keep going.

As an aside, it's my first non-digital download Switch game and this kind of annoys my OCD. 🙃 I wish there was some way of downloading the software too.

I am loving this game so far. It is the only thing that will get me to work out these days and I think it's brilliant. It's a ton of fun, the excercises make sense in the context of the silly story, and the minigames are a ton of fun.
