03.07.2008
Residents in Bristol could overall be classified as being the fittest people in the UK, after the region has bought the highest number of copies of the Nintendo Wii computer game hit Wii Fit, it has been stated.
TeleBid, a leading European online auction site, has stated that Bristol has sold more copies than any other UK city, with London and Southampton also stocking up on the fitness title.
And the same three cities were earlier described by Men's Health magazine as the three fittest cities in the UK before the current findings were published.
Bristol residents are also massive fans of the Nintendo Wii console in general, with three Wii consoles being bought in the city compared to any one of any other console including the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
An article on MCV, has stated that titles like Wii Fit have helped to "galvanise" the computer game market and have taken healthy gaming to a new level from that witnessed at the start of the decade.
