Get Fit with new Nintendo Channel videos
The most noteworthy new video added to the Nintendo Channel this week is the first installment of the new longform Wii Fit ad/exercise program "Get Wii Fit with Alyson." In this introductory video, a group of young Disney Channel-ready actors looks on as Alyson undergoes her first Wii Fit Body Test. If you've yet to pick up Wii Fit and would like to see it judging people, watch this. A new edition of "Get Fit with Alyson" is also available on the website.Other new videos include promos for Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and Rock Band, footage of today's WiiWare game, and a bit about the new controls in NCAA Football '09. Step onto the Balance Board, do a stretch or two, and enjoy the videos on the Nintendo Channel!

Get Targeted Marketing with Alyson
"Get Fit with Alyson" is a new site hosted by Alyson Stoner, one of the "Dozen" from Cheaper by the Dozen (and that one backup dancer in Missy Elliott's "Work It" video), featuring podcasts and mobile phone videos in which the actress leads kids through short exercise programs. It will also feature stories from readers about fitness and "the things they are doing to change their lives." Apparently, Alyson will also talk about "issues" that are important to teens.Concurrent with the "Get Fit" content, a series of "Get Wii Fit with Alyson" videos will be made available through the Nintendo Channel, in which Alyson demonstrates Wii Fit exercises on the Balance Board. This whole thing is sponsored by Nintendo, in fact, which means that even the "Get Fit" site is basically Wii Fit marketing. Which leads us to ask: if Wii Fit is selling so well, why not put a bit of ad money elsewhere? People might want to hear about WiiWare at some point.[Via GoNintendo]
