Nickelodeon Fit Message Board

New video game designed with renowned physical education expert engages kids to exercise with their favorite Nickelodeon preschool characters.

With the recent reveal of Nickelodeon Fit, 2K Play looks to capitalize on the still-raging exergaming craze in a fairly unorthodox way. The Wii-exclusive is a youth-oriented, Balance Board-supported title that features characters from Nickelodeon cartoons, including Dora the Explorer, Go, Diego, Go!, Ni-Hao, Kai-lan and The Backyardigans. The game's young players will participate in context appropriate exercises, such as pogo-sticking with Dora (which we all know is the most efficient method for blasting your core).

Scoff as you might, but we don't think this sounds like too terrible an idea. If we had access to an exercise game when we were kids featuring Rocko, Ren, Stimpy and Doug, we probably wouldn't have received a "Laughable" rating on our Presidential Physical Fitness Test.

The Wii Fit concept gets an infusion of cartoon characters, courtesy of 2K Play.

For the first time ever characters from Dora the Explorer, Go, Diego, Go!, and Ni-Hao, Kai-lan come together in a fitness game designed for children.
