The new ones like EA Active really get people moving and allow them to burn calories and have fun. But I sure wouldn't assume I'm doing real Pilates by following a Wii game, any more than I'd think I was doing real surgery with one of the first Wii games called Trauma Center. Maybe it's a good thing because it makes the practice more accessible. And maybe more people will be interested in checking out the real thing. I haven't used EA Active in months now because I'd rather spend my free time doing real exercise. I’ve had some experience with Wii games and they can be fun.
