Pokewalker is the most accurate step-counter

An Iowa State assistant professor of food science and nutrition recently discovered that the Pokewalker is the most accurate step-counter.

Lorraine Lanningham-Foster, who specializes in video game health benefits, recently tested the Pokemon add-on (specifically for the HeartGold and SoulSilver video games) against the Digiwalker pedometer and Sensewear armband. The result? The Pokewalker bested the others on a treadmill at four different speeds.

“In comparing all those measures, the Pokewalker did very well,” said Lorraine Lanningham-Foster. “As a tool that can be used to actually change behavior, and a child can use to truly understand and learn about how much they’re walking.”

I guess the Wii isn't the only fitness product Nintendo is offering
