    I wrote a follow up article about my Wii Sports Experiment, I have links to 80% of my media appearances from all across the globe.

    I also have round 2 of the experiment in the works with the amazing fitness site, Traineo.com. We came up with an entire Wii section of their site.

    I also have a book in the works about the experiment, check it out:
    (I'd also love to hear any suggestions for the book itself, I'm working with a "ghost writer" right now and I'll try to incorporate suggestions from the Wii/internet community, THANKS!)

    I put the data behind the obvious, yes. The book will elaborate more on the actual workout routines and also include a diet, etc.

    woa you got a lot of coverage on that
    I hope you got paid by Nintendo for promoting them.
    Anyway congratulations and nice to finally see someone bringing something they enjoy a level further.

    Your focus is on the physical positive effects of the game, (although i am certain you can get RepetativeStrainInjury)
    whereas most media debates the psychological dangers, addiction in gaming and of course that games cause violence.

    Actually, the hair was plucked one by one over the course of the 6 weeks with some tweezers.
