Comment on Review of Gold’s Gym Dance Workout for Wii by anonymous

Weird question but I’ve been searching everywhere for the answer…in the online trailer for this game….is the song starting at 0:40 included in the game? I really want to know the name of the song/artist so I can get a copy of it.

Many thanks!!

I’m bot into video ganes, yet. I’m looking for something for excercise at home, beyond a video. I’m leaning toward the kinect, mainly because it seems like it’ll provide the best workout but also because I have to purchase the entire system for whichever I go with. The wii is cheaper, and up until 3-4 hours ago, I was going to buy it, but the kinect seems like a better investment, particulary because I’m hoping I will get into some of the adventure games since I’m an avid reader of scifi/fantasy. Maybe, maybe not. I do think the move looks better for those games, but I’m hoping ms will introduce some handhelds for weapons, since it might not be that easy to totally pretend. Anyways, I’m really excited. Of course I can go to the gym or just jog around the block, but if I prefer to spend $300-600 I doubt ms or sony or nintendo would complain.

Reseating the sensors (as jim says above) worked perfectly.

Can’t believe it worked but it did! I “reseated the sensors” which isn’t really reseating anything just taking it apart and putting it back together….
here’s my tale… Had the same annoying message step off the board over and over..tried everything..no luck..read the “reseat the sensors and thought why not try..so it took it in the kitchen took off each of the plastic feet one by one (three philips screws) removed the plastic foot, unscrewed the big torx screw that holds the small metal plate on the accelerometer (rectangular piece of metal with tape on it an wires coming out) I tapped on each accelerometer also gently with the handle end of the screwdriver, also wiggled each set of wires a bit…then i screwed the plate back on and put the plastic parts back on and repeated for the other 3…plugged it back in and unbelievably it worked right away!! Can’t believe it but i’m so glad..i hope it works for others!

I feel the same way about the XBOX 360 Kinect, I think it will not sell that well since the XBOX fan base is mostly FPS fans the same as PS3. At least with the PS3, the controller will have that Wiimote feeling. The bad thing about the Move is that you have the buy the sub remote(aka Sony Nunchuck) separately. I am interested in getting a PS3 but I don’t know about the Move. Since The Move is coming out in September, I just wait for the reviews before jumping on the bandwagon. It just sucks that the PS3 doesn’t have any good bundles until around the Christmas time.

Ferdi, thank you so much for posting these details!

I don’t mind giving money to Nintendo when they put out good games, but it just seems wrong to pay them when they not only refuse to acknowledge this is a problem, but also throw red herrings like rechargeable batteries and plastic covers around as excuses (placing the blame on their customers) rather than admitting the problem.

I hope your fix works for a lot of people! For someone whose Balance Board warranty has expired, it is certainly worth a shot.
