Your Shape is different due to the optical feedback from the otherwise offered for Wii products that work with Wiimote, Nunkchuk or Balance Board. The idea with the camera is not new - Sony has released many years ago Eye Toy for the PS2 - and it has its good and bad sides. First the good: It has no controller in hand and no cable interferes with or restricts the movement. With EA Sports Active both me but often disturbed. The virtual trainer has still the possibility to take corrective action if you do not perform an exercise correctly. I bitch as always with the poor. Even if one comes from the clock, you will be corrected. Unless you are trained in a studio with a large wall mirror, you also even yet a visual check, if you do everything right. The disadvantages lie in the technical field: Very few people have a uniformly illuminated living room and a light source himter television has also rare. Ergo fighting the camera, as well as at the time Sony's Eye Toy camera, with adverse circumstances. In my case, the window on the cause of the television opposite wall at Sun so extreme backlight that the rest of the room (where I turne) in the dark is. So, blinds down and ceiling lamp. Six energy light bulbs make in light walls for good, even illumination. So I have no problems. The camera is better quality than Sony's Eye Toy definitely. Also it has a very thoughtful support. I can even hang on my flat tapering upwards LCD TV (3 mm width on the top edge). If you have all the technology under control, does the training. Since it even appears in the window viewing, creating an avatar is omitted. Name, size, age, weight, all key data are recorded (to be protected by a password if necessary), and then the body is scanned. At the scanned image you can then determine which problem areas you want to plow. Here you can always between bacon off and select toning. Small disadvantage: You can specify only one problem area - with me there are actually several ... The big surprise came with me when we went to the Fitness Check: The entire play structure is based on "My Fitness Coach", which is also made by Ubisoft. So complete Fitness Challenge and then I get my indivduelles training program, based on the results that has been sweeping the camera. Incidentally, this is another plus: The assessment of a practice section no longer depends on the perceived "good", "bad" or "do not know", but on the clean execution of the exercises. If you exhausted and can no longer join the exercise clean, the camera performs the and the level is adjusted downward. Or the other way around. Fallen exercises too easily, it is more difficult next time. The program includes various aerobic exercises also toning exercises for arms, legs, buttocks, stomach ... Use an exercise mat is strongly recommended. Dumbbells, exercise ball and Aerobic Step can also be used, if available. I've only trained twice, were accepted, however, that the exercises as comprehensive and good as the fitness coach without a camera. I have three or four months very regularly "My Fitness Coach" trained last year. That's for me when it comes to sports, a very long motivation phase (the longest so far, including all gyms that I have visited "life"). Now I'm looking forward to that I have the same, good exercises again, but no longer have to constantly reach for the Wiimote to give annoying feedback on the exercises. In my view, this program is (game I would not say this) a good tip for those who seriously want to develop their fitness and regularly - and be able to come to terms with pink butterflies on the screen.
