Wii Fit^[a] is a 2007 exergaming video game designed by Nintendo's Hiroshi Matsunaga^[8] for the Wii home video game console,^[9] featuring a variety of yoga, strength training, aerobics, and balance mini-games for use with the Wii Balance Board peripheral. Matsunaga described the game as a "way to help get families exercising together".^[10] It has since been adopted by various health clubs around the world, and has previously been used for physiotherapy rehabilitation in children^[11]^[12] and in nursing homes to improve posture in the elderly.

The game has received generally positive reviews, despite criticism over the lack of intensity in some of its workout activities.^[13] As of March 2022^[update], Wii Fit was the third best selling console game not to be packaged with a console, having sold 22.67 million copies.^[14]

Wii Fit Plus,^[b] an enhanced version featuring additional games, activities, and features, was released for the Wii in October 2009. It also garnered positive reception and was a commercial success; as of March 2022^[update], it is the seventh best-selling game on the Wii, with a total of 21.13 million copies sold.^[14] Both versions have sold a combined total of 43.8 million copies, making the game one of the best-selling video games of all time.
