Something I noticed with the Wii Fit Plus... Missing Helmets on Mii's

On the Island Cycling exercises the Mii doesn't have a helmet on. It seems weird that they didn't factor that in for the children who will be using these systems.

Yeah, it is pretty unsafe riding a bicycle in a computer game without a helmet.

I do not know how any of us kids survived riding real bikes in the 1960s without helmets.

Helmeteers have yet to conquer Japan.

I noticed K'Tesh is from Beaverton, Oregon. Maybe he can hook up with John and try to do something about that.

I always make sure I wear my helmet while playing the game, so I guess I never really noticed.

Remember, safety first!

Ok, I confess. I can't figure out whether or not the OP was serious. Somebody please tell me he wasn't...

I'm more worried about the roof caving in on me while playing.

I rarely venture in to A&S but find it funny that in the two posts I've opened you're only comment has been to say said post belongs in a different forum. Are you putting in for Mod?
