If you thought the Waving Girl in Walk It Out was annoying

Walk It Out and Exerbeat are Wii exercise games.

The Waving Girl on Walk It Out and Walking Girl on Exerbeat are two figures (miis) that pop up in the games for different reasons. Those of us who love our WIO and Exerbeat know these figures well and either love them (at least Waving Girl) or hate them.

Waving Girl creeps people out because no matter where you walk, there she is waving at you (for the same reason, being there, being supportive, some people love her and wave back).
Walking Girl upsets you because after you do even a 1-minute segment of an exercise in Exerbeat, she pops up and tells you how far you have come. On the Exerbeat you have to accumulate minutes worked out to get rid of her and she impedes your doing that by popping up and telling you how far you have come.


But both games are a lot of fun.

Another fan of waving girl! She's so sweet LOL!

I just got my copy of Walk it Out! for Christmas. So far I like waving girl (AKA stalker girl). Lovin' the game.

Exerbeat is on order ... should get it shortly. I'm looking forward to checking out walking girl & pizza guy.

Thanks! I may check it out.

My theory on Waving Girl on WIO is that she (they) are the island's security. They wave at me because they know I am the creator and everyone depends on me. Bwwwaaahhhhaaaahaaa!

I just got ExerBeat and haven't come across her yet. But is anyone else bugged by the Aerobics (aka Barbie) and Latin Dance (aka Barbie Latina) instructors? I'm not Hispanic but Latina Barbie just seems like such a bad impersonation that it seems to me that true Hispanics would be offended. (Aerobics Barbie has this annoying squeal at the end of her segment.)

Every time my personal trainer does that, I can't help but feel for the sad, sad citizens of the island, whose lives are so tragic that a mere planter or fire hydrant is cause for great rejoicing. I mean, I can see getting all excited about a blimp or maybe even a burger restaurant, but a fire hydrant?!?
