It sounds like not many here have a Wii, so it seems like it might be a good time for me to come in and clear a few things up:
First, let's not confuse Wii Fit with Wii Sports. The tennis game you speak of is part of Wii Sports, which is more game than exercise regimen -- that said, it does remind the user to limit how long they play so as to avoid injury (and it increases the frequency of these reminders the longer you play). Wii Fit is an exercise "game" that uses the Wii Balance Board as well as the Wiimote. The balance board is remarkably good at judging your posture and balance based on the pressure being put on it at different spots from your feet (or, for some exercises, your hands). Anyway, the Wii Fit game/disc has four categories of small exercise/game type things: yoga, strength exercises (these are largely core-strengthening type things), aerobics, and balance games. Some of these activities have enforced warm-up periods (mostly just the aerobic ones). The game also has generalized reminders to warm up and cool down, although it generally doesn't force the user to do so. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
