  Hi Mike,

   

  Not quite true.

   

  In order to play these games, you need what is called a Wiimote for each 
player.  These can be bought at Argos or many other places, and they are 
essentially a remote control that makes your PC as if it were a Wii console.

   

  To hear a demo of a Vifit game, please listen to my Podcast, Episode 211.  
Louise Keel does an excellent demo of Vi-Tennis.

   

  All the best

   

  Steve

  Morning all,

   

  Anyone fancy a game of tennis, or perhaps bowls?

   

  I have just had a look at the site, after getting the link from another list; 
it looks promising and the most of us should have the necessary bits lying 
around the house. (especially if you have kids)

   

  Good news is that it is free to play, so enjoy!!

   

  Here's that link:

  Regards,

   

  Mike
