It looks like Wii Fit is set to become a huge success in the UK. All pre-orders for the long awaited health inspired game have sold out in a single day.

The figures come from popular online retailer play.com but come as no shock given the phenominal sales figures for Wii Fit in Japan. The game’s uk price is set to £69.99 with Free Delivery. Its not as cheap as a regular wii game but given that you get the balance board accessory it’s good value. Regardless of the price, it seems that the public are still keen to snap up a copy.
