racerfan Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Does anyone have the Wii Active Life Outdoor Challenge?? I was thinking of getting it since it looks like a lot of fun. It also says there are going to be other games in the Active Life series. Please let me know. Amazon has it for $49.99 a savings of $10 plus tax and free shipping. BB has it on sale this week also for the same price. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0013LTP5Q/ref=ord_cart_shr?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61lyXrGSnBL._SL500_AA280_.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pornstache Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Out of stock through Amazon now. The game received good reviews by purchasers on Amazon.com and Walmart.com. I have been waiting for the price to go back down to $39.99 -- where it was for a brief time in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesky225 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 (edited) We have Outdoor Challenge. It is a very active and fun game. It has a mat that you run on, jump hurdles, do balance type games, things like that. My 6 year old enjoys playing it, but he does have a problem with staying on circles that you're supposed to stay on while running, jumping etc. (his feet just move around too much) It is a great game for exercise! I think I bought it on Amazon for around the same price you're looking at. I think the cardio is better than Wii fit (which we also have), but I'm not a big fan of the Mining game (can't remember exactly what it's called). I'm just not that good at balance games, but my husband does great on those. There's also a "hit the mole" game where you jump on the circles to hit moles that come up. That one is a lot of fun. It keeps up with your score and tells you how good (or bad) you did, of course. I would recommend this game overall. Just be ready to exercise!

bluesky225 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Just looked--I bought ours for 39.98 on Amazon on Dec 4. Really good deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerfan Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 (edited) Now it is $64.39. I had it in my cart and decided to go for it since I was using a gift certificate. Got it for $49.99, and it will ship in a few weeks. If it goes lower somewhere else or on Amazon I can always cancel.

Lorinjer Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 We have this and love it!! Very active!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nat1jen Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I got this for my girls for Christmas. I think that I paid 56.99 on amazon. The girls haven't taken it out of the box yet b/c they are still playing Mario Kart and GH World Tour. This is a great price for Active Life!

Scanner420 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 We actually just got this for my DS for his B-Day last Monday. He pulled it out of the box and loves it. The kids love jumping around him when he's playing it as well. And I love the fact that they're tiring themselves out by 7pm!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlesdcen Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 My kids got it for Christmas too. But it has yet to be taken out and played with yet. They are busy playing Emergency Heros that I also bought on Amazon cause it was cheap. Did not know it was gonna be such a big hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisjuvers Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Our whole family loves this game. DS3 can also play some of the easy(like jumprope) games. All the boys 7,9,13 love it as well. It will make you sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerfan Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Well since you all convinced me I ordered it thinking it would not be here until the beginning of February so would make a perfect Valentines gift to the kids. Just got notification from Amazon that it was shipped today and I will have it on Monday. Now I get to hide it until February 14th, or I will just start playing it while the kids are in school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PinkPrincess515 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 My DH And I Got This Game As A Gift To Us For Christmas, We Haven't Taken It Out And Played It Yet But It Looks Like A GREAT Game And Everywhere I Looked It Had Received Really Good Reviews. We Ordered It From GameStop When They Had It On Sale For $49.99 I Used A Free Shipping Code And A $10 Off A $10 Purchase Code That I Found Online And Only Ended Up Paying 39.99 For It.
