NINTENDO AND
TARGET HELP PEOPLE KEEP THEIR NEW
YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS WITH WII FIT PLUS
Nintendo and Target have teamed
up to give people a fun and invigorating way to
keep their New Year's resolutions. On weekends
from Jan. 16-31, shoppers who visit select
Target stores nationwide will encounter the Wii
Fit™ Plus Experience in the parking lot or at
the entrances of the stores. Each location will
feature eight kiosks where visitors can get some
"feet-on" time with the Wii Fit Plus software in
an atmosphere reminiscent of a yoga studio.
Visitors will be able to try out the various
balance games found in Wii Fit Plus, which uses
the Wii Balance Board™ accessory to combine fun
and fitness. Wii Fit Plus includes the original
Wii Fit activities as well as more than 20 new
activities, customizable workout routines and
even a way to track the number of calories
burned. Nintendo and Target ambassadors will be
on hand to provide visitors with demos,
information and free healthy snacks from Archer
Farms, a food brand found only at Target.
While supplies last, visitors who complete the
Wii Fit Plus demo will be given a Target
GiftCard valued at $15 that can be applied
toward any Target purchase. Wii Fit Plus with
the Wii Balance Board accessory is available at
Target for a suggested retail price of $99.99,
while Wii Fit owners who want to upgrade to Wii
Fit Plus can buy the disc alone at a suggested
retail price of $19.99.
"If you're just embarking on your New Year's
resolutions (or have already abandoned them),
the Wii Fit Plus Experience at Target stores
will show you how you can have fun and stay
active," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of
America's executive vice president of Sales &
Marketing. "Wii Fit Plus has so many
customizable options, it's easy to stay
motivated and energized all year long."
"The Wii Fit Plus sampling events give our
guests the opportunity to try out this popular
fitness game before making a purchase," said
Mark Schindele, senior vice president, Target.
"We strive to make sure our guests find
everything they need to work, live and play all
in one convenient and simplified shopping
experience."
