I have been using this for almost a month now and its a pretty neat app.

The one thing I will say is it has a Noby Noby boy sort of feature in the game. you can upload your steps and they are added up with everyone elses to walk to the moon.

Players 2, 273

World Total Steps 174, 739, 036

Steps to the Moon 373, 830, 964

The point of this thread is I hope more people get it and help us reach the moon!
 
I got this about 2 weeks ago and have kept one on my keychain since...it is neat. I wonder if anything special happens when people get to the moon? probably not, but I'll keep checking anyway. I am a insomniac and I use the tracking to let me know when I've gone to sleep and when I'm up, viewing the weekly graphs of that I get a good look at my sleep patterns and if the amount of walking I did had any effect on it. I hold the record for the month of june...doesnt mean much since theres not much competition but who cares...I'M NUMBER ONE!
 
I made a thread a while back when it launched in the UK. Like I said there - it's good fun to put the pedometer on animals!

Nice little software tool, but not a game by any stretch.

Keep meaning to update the thread as I had a couple of interesting days. Going clubbing one weekend gave me 15,000 steps, and seeing Blur on Wed game me 12,000 with obvious fast song/slow song sections.

Interesting to see other people have it but I guess GAF doesn't care for personal improvement ;)
 
I have it, but always forget to check myself. I give out the second sensor to other people, though. It's fun to check their activity at weekends, or how much their dogs move around.

The dog of a co-worker had no activity until around 08.30 in the morning one day, then had a massive spike lasting half an hour or so when they went for a walk. Then, almost no activity from nine in the morning to around five in the afternoon, when my co-worker got home again. The dog probably slept the whole time. Another big spike when she got home, with greeting and feeding and such, and very little the rest of the day. Lazy little mutt. But it did reach over 19000 steps, most of it at the morning walk. The dog has had the sensor this week-end. Probably much more activity this time, since they were at their mountain-cabin. I'll see how it went tomorrow.

I saw this today in Target. Why in God's name is it $50?!?!? I'd actually be interested if it was priced correctly at $20.

Smart move...girls don't particularly dig pedometers.

it comes with 2 pedometers and they cost 14.99 each on nintendos website... so I guess the game is 20 with the 2 meters adding 30 to the cost. I'm gonna buy 2 more pedometers for my dogs.

I hope they make the pedometers work with wii fit plus, and that vitality finger sensor thing too.
 
Haven't been using it as much since last time, mostly because recently my free days have been next to each other..

So just 3 "main" updates, but at the same time bigger:
July 11: -- (Free; at the beach)
JUly 12: -- (Free; sunburn!)
July 13: 11,689 (Work -Target: 7,000)
July 14: -- ("Sick"; sunburn counterattack!!)
July 15: 23,191 (Work -Target: 7,000)
July 16: 21,299 (Work -Target: 7,000) *Today*
