Okay, so I got my EA sports active trainer for the Wii and I am now utterly pissed off

[FabIsGoingToGetFit]

It isn't registering some moves I do and sometimes marks the first one and not the second. I am not happy.

Bump.

I don't have that one, so I would go on amazon and see if it's a common problem/anyone has figured out how to improve things. If it still is a bit cack then I suppose you could either write it off as a bad job, ask for a refnd where you bought it from, or flog it on ebay, or trade it in at cex or a games shop for another game or cash.

Why don't you just get out in the fresh air and do some real free exercise?

You have to make sure that you're holding the remote exactly right. It can be a right pain in the arse, I agree. Still, at least that factor means I'm not overly pissed off that our burglars took my copy last week.

Thanks for your posts.

there's a forum for that game somewhere online, I found it when I was very frustrated with it about the second time I used it.

Hand position with the remotes makes a huge difference. You need to make sure you're pointing it the right way at the beginning and end of the moves and I've found it's not always the same as the videos tells you... I found the alternating bicep curls could be a problem and realised (eventually) it was due to putting my hand back to far back at the end of the move. Can be trciky to work it out.

Also I've had issues with the dance thing not registering all moves when wii remote batteries are not fully charged.

Will try to find a link to the forum now....

Thanks becky, will take a look now.
