I’ve been doing Ring Fit Adventure on the Switch for a couple years now. It’s more interesting than running, I don’t have to get ready and go out to a gym, and I can do it in any weather.
Basically, it’s easily accessible and novel enough that that’s the one that has stuck with me since 2018ish.
I used to play WiiFit Plus all the time as a kid, I need to look into Ring Fit Adventure
Yeah watch some videos of people playing for sure!
My complaints are that the tutorials are repetitive and intrusive—like c’mon game, I’ve been playing for years, I know how to do a squat. The “story” is 100% forgettable but not skippable. With a couple of the rhythm based exercises, the switch loses track of where the joycons are and counts those reps as “wrong”. (Fortunately it’s pretty simple to avoid those specific exercises most of the time.) And I wish there were an easy way to incorporate weights during the times I’m trying to build muscle mass.
But overall it’s interesting and engaging enough that I don’t mind it as much as more traditional types of exercise I’ve done.
