I got We Ski for Christmas and was very excited about it. They have it backwards as to how an actual skier would do it. It's the same on Wii Fit. It makes me crazy and makes it really hard. I wonder if you can change it.

I'm dying to know this, too. Our Wii Fit has the L/R orientation all backward. So if you lean to the left, your Mii leans right. ARGHGHGHGH!

And what country is this made in? :laugh:

Maybe you're supposed to watch it in the mirror!

turn the board around. the power button is supposed to be on the back side facing you.

I'll have to try that again... We tried that, and Wii said they had 'lost' us (couldn't read the signal from the pad).

As a side note, I *finally* opened our Wii Fit yesterday...and it kicked my butt. Literally. My fanny is kinda sore. :hurt:

Sorry for the hijack.

That is the way you actually ski. It's wrong and really frustrating to actual skiers to lean to the right to go right. I will try turning the board around and see if that helps.

Uh, no - you lean right to go right, left to go left in skiing, unless you practice a different form of skiing then I do, or you typed that out wrong?

My friend's Wii Fit is fine - she leans left, her Mii goes left. She thinks you dorks all have the board backwards LOL

I just want to say that I love Wii Fit I don't care what way I have to lean....but for the record when I go left so does my mii

Yup! Bill had is bass-ackwards at first, and I told him there's no way it would be in reverse. Turned it around and bingo! Perfect!

No, when are really skiing you put pressure on the opposite foot to turn. I did see last night that you can change your board to be opposite. That made it all better.

haha that made me LOL.

We have one of each and my brother absolutely hates the Wii.

I play both, and like them for different reasons. I love my WiiFit, and I love mario kart.
On 360 I love to play Fable/Fable II and I'm working on learning Call of Duty: World at War.

Well, to be fair- Wii's are geared for kids. 360 is most definitely geared towards teens and adults. My 5yr old cannot even hold the 360 remote because his hands are too small. LOL. But definitely, if you are serious into gaming and love the graphics, Wii is not for you. It is fun for families though.
