    I see this getting 5 star reviews on amazon uk.
    No.1 in Japan.
    Is this the Switch cross-over moment ?
    I have a feeling this title will be on the late late toy show this year.

    Session 2 - would you like to raise the intensity? Sure, I'm fit, why not?

    I forgot, during the excitement of the first session, that this is still an RPG. I was thinking of it like the Wii Fit, with some fancier graphics. And that I'd just be trying to beat myself. Of course, there are monsters to kill along the way, and I failed. I ran out of lives, and got smushed by a thing. I tried that level twice, and got smushed each time. So I went back and repeated an earlier session in order to level up a bit. But then I was too tired to try again. I'll beat him next time!

    I think they've got the balance between exercise and game right. If I'd beaten that monster first time around, I'd probably have left it there, but the game piece made me do more than I'd planned, which is a good thing. Looking forward to a good long session over the weekend.

    Exercise tips - don't skip the warm ups. Wear a good sports bra if you're a bra wearing person. The knee lifts in particular will make you notice if you're not. Some of the exercises could pull muscles etc if you don't do them right. Take it slow, get the form right. If you're not sure, take a look on youtube for examples of that exercise.

    World 2 boss near killed me. Had to run through all 5 exercise attacks 2 or 3 times before he went down (could have just reused the most powerful but wanted to try spread the pain over multiple neglected muscles)

    Sorry! Won't happen. Video games, too much of a threat to tubbs and rte. He will just knock it and go do a Billy Barry dance in his Christmas jumper. I really, truly can't stand him.

    Here's Jimmy Fallon, the Roots and Mr Miyamoto instead celebrating video games:
