Out of nowhere, Nintendo has published a brand new Direct presentation. Today’s video is a 21-minute broadcast focusing on Wii Fit U. You can find it above.

– Introduction to the Direct is done by the Wii Fit trainer.
– 19 new training activities and the ones from the previous Wii Fit games are included. Makes it 77 now.
– ”We hope that you like the new look of the Wii Fit U trainer, inspires you to perform better.”
– With the Fit Meter, you can now have a better look at the calories you burn.
– It is not a Pedometer, but an Activity meter as it uses a 3-axis accelerometer.
– Pressure sensor can measure changes in altitude. This can make certain that the calories you burn are accurate.
– Fit meter must be attached to the hip, because this lowers measurement error.
– Meter displays calories burned, steps, target calories, elevation difference from home, time, temperature, METs Graph, elevation graph and a graph of calories burned. Data can be transferred through IR port of the GamePad.
– Graphs in the Wii Fit U software will go in accurate detail of your progress now, which is a nice touch.
– After a discussion of graphs, Iwata moves on. If you fail your goal by walking, the game can recommend activities for you.
– There is also a seperate mode called Fit Meter challenge, which uses your steps or altitude for special challenges.
– The Fit meter will be released in Europe on November 1st.
– Iwata wants people to make use of the game’s online stuff. Like announced before, you can make a gym community on Miiverse.
– You make sure that you have similar goals. Will see the progress of others and can compare stats.
– One month free trial of Wii Fit U, if you have bought the previous entries. The downloading begins on November 1st in EU.
– Can use it for month though, as after that it’s useless. If you purchase a Fit Meter, you will be able to continue to play.
– Iwata is aware of the issue with storage and the basic pack. ”Consider getting an external drive!”
– The regular DL version will be released on… February 1st. Packaged version with Meter (and Balance Board if you need it) on December 6 in Europe.
– You can now use the balance board in Wii Street U and it is available right now.
– Iwata reminds us that Wii Street U is available for free until October 31, 2013.
– Finally, Wii Sports is becoming a download software title on Wii U. This title of the software is called Wii Sports Club.
– All the sports have been upgraded to work just with Wii Remote Plus tech.
– There is now also online multiplayer, which was a request from the fans apparently.
– You are playing as a registered member of a club. This can be state or regional.
– There will be communication by special made Miiverse functions. Face off friendly with club members or defeat other clubs.
– The software serves as a hub, from which you can select the sports. You have to purchase all the sports seperately though.
– Available for download on November 7, 2013 in Europe. Tennis and Bowling will be available from the software’s launch.
– Single sports pass will set you back €9.99/£8.99. This allows you to purchase a sport at your own leisure.
– There is also a day pass, which sets you back €1.99/£1.79. This gives you unlimited access to the sports for 24 hours.
– Wii Sports Club is available to play for free in the first 24 hours. That was the presentation!
