The backing is a victory for the Japanese company and the rest of the video games industry, which has been frequently attacked by the Government for encouraging a sedentary lifestyle, and accused of playing a role in the obesity epidemic.
However, the endorsement will raise eyebrows among critics of the Department for Health, as Nintendo has agreed to use its own money to promote the NHS Change4Life programme.

It is a bit on the dodgy side, isn't it? This kind of endorsement with payment in kind would be deemed illegal elsewhere, would it not?

I lost ten pounds with the help of wii fit. I can't say it was only the wii fit work out, but it was definitely a useful tool. It just helps you be more conscious of that kind of thing.
