What does /vp/ think of Nintendo's new marketing strategy of recycling all the unused Pokewalkers into Wii Fit U pedometers?

Yes this is real.

I don't see what's wrong with it? Should they just throw them out?

It's a good idea. As embarrassing as it is to admit, I lost a shit ton of weight using the Pokewalker. As soon as 5th gen came out and I stopped using it, I gained all of the weight back.

Believe it or not, the Pokewalker is actually one of the most accurate pedometers ever conceived. It's been scientifically proven.

The pokewalker is cheap and actually a really accurate pedometer.

Why the hell wouldn't they reuse it? Saves tons of money on having new molds and guts made and tested.

It's not like they just repainted them, the Wii Fit U one has some new stuff like an altitude sensor for accurately tracking calories. New model, refined and improved from the old model.

You can actually register cats, dogs, and babies to the game to check on their weight. Dogs for some reason can use the meter along with being registered.

I don't think Nintendo's to blame here.

Did the pokewalker have an altimeter?
Also how do you get those white and green fit meters, I can only find black ones.
