Nintendo Wii goes health crazy

Nintendo Wii Health PackWith the newly announced “Health Pack”, Nintendo Wii just may be the next cornerstone of a nutritious breakfast. This Wii concept was recently announced at the Nintendo Conference Japan, but no further information was given. It’s believed that this will be related in some way to the Japanese title Family Health Check.

And speaking of health, Nintendo DS will be getting a cooking guide titled DS Menu Collection which will contain over 1,000 built in recipes. And we assume that they’ll be some nutritious recipes in the bunch and not simply instructions on how to make a chili pie. Not that there’s anything wrong with chili pie, mind you. The Big N is so dedicated to the concept of cooking with DS that they will be offering a magnet stand for 1200 yen. That way, you can pop your DS on your fridge while you cook away.

Other interesting tidbits from the event: Around 60 Virtual Console games will be released by the end of 2006, including PCE and MD, Zelda: Twilight Princess for Gamecube will be sold online only in Japan, and starting next spring, “Wii Compact Software” will be sold, which we assume means downloadable titles.
