I'm a martial artist, a lazy martial artist, I like fighting but I have very little motivation to do sit ups etc. I've not really paid much attention to the DS's releases when it hasn't been a big game that interests me, I've ignored most health/brain training games. I was wondering if the DS has a version of Wii Fit, something like it or something coming out in the future to help make training a bit more structured and interesting. It was that walking game that was just released that made me think about this.

Hmm I just found My Health Coach, but the reviews said that most of the foods listed on the game are american foods and its hard to find English foods on there. But its only £14.99 new with one of those smurfmeters. odd that its £24.99 preowned bit of a strange offer. I might buy it if only for the smurfmeter that I can use with other games as well. What do you guys think?

There's that 'Walk With Me' thing,

'Take a walk on the fun side with Nintendo’s latest lifestyle game, which comes with two very special Activity Meter smurfmeters! Walk with me! Do you know your walking routine? helps you work out if your activity rhythm is up to scratch and provides valuable insight on how to set up a regular routine – the healthiest way to live! quoted from the Game website.

I don't know what it's like never tried it, it's about £40.

EDIT - Sorry didn't read you're post properly, I see you mentioned the Walk thing.

You are better off plugging your headphone into your ds for music when working out.

Its not worth downloading those shit.

I did end up buying My Health Coach yesterday and it arrived today. You know its not too bad, I've only just started using it and I'm already feeling fitter. The only annoying things are that they smurfmeters clip is missing so I'm going to have to make some kind of clip to attach it to my belt and the smurfmeter is sooo sensitive any slight movement and it starts counting, its not so sensitive when its on your belt (Or tucked into your trousers).

I reccommend ''Walk With Me''. I Bought this game last week and it comes with 2 activity metres which record your walking steps, rhythm and length of time walked + speed. You create your own Mii on the DS or you can import from the Wii. Has Minigames such as Illuminate where your step count helps light up a town and there are also online games such as 'Walk to the moon'

10/10

and its worth the money

It measures how many smurfs you've had in a day...





Its the censor, its doesn't want us to say pe.do.


I did one of the walking challenges with the smurfmeter today, it wanted me to take about 6000 steps but I was working so I did over 11000. Didn't think I would take as many as that, I thought it would be really hard to manage but it was quite easy, don't think I'll find it so easy to do on my day off, I might get half that. When I looked at my smurfmeter for the first time when I was at work it said hello, 42110.

Yea, you can run an NES emulator and play Athletic World or Stadium Events and it will use the DS screen to emulate the Power Pad so you can run in the game when needed to.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
