This clip feels like an outtake from Woody Allen's Sleeper. Here's the pitch: parents, when the kids go to school, that brand new Nintendo Wii you just picked up for your tyke can get you pumped up. All you have to do is buy the Wii Fit, a virtual-reality exercise console that makes push-ups fun!

I can't decide if this is a completely absurd gadget destined for failure or a completely brilliant marketing ploy that will lure bored adults into buy overpriced video-game systems so they can get watch better-looking versions of their bodies keep them company as they sweat it up to the oldies. Time will tell...
