@Mii_duck Yep, the calorie counts shouldn’t be something you should count on. The game doesn’t even track calories in real time, but estimates them based on exercise intensity and your weight you input.

@Likethepear You are able to change the backgrounds, and you can dress the boxing instructors with different outfits you can unlock.

@Spoony_Tech I agree with you that the price is steep. The original Wii game that was the predecessor to this (Gold’s Gym Cardio Workout), was only $30 USD at launch. I would advise anyone who wants this game to get it at $30 max, as this game seems to lack extra activities that the original had like non-boxing exercises.

@Hikingguy Oh, sorry I wasn’t more specific, I didn’t mean this review. Here’s the article: https://nintendoeverything.com/fitness-boxing-details-screenshots/
Gold’s Gym Cardio Workout is known as Shape Boxing in Japan, and Fitness Boxing (or Fit Boxing in Japan) is the successor to that game. Ubisoft published the original Wii Game putting the Gold’s Gym licensing, while this new Switch Game is published by Nintendo.

@Hikingguy This is actually the sequel to Gold’s Gym Cardio Workout. A different developer, but under the same kind of format as the original game on Wii. An article stated it was “the successor”

@RupeeClock That game was VOEZ, but they added in controller mode. No game is entirely reliant on touchscreen due to added button controls, but many of them are better in touch mode

@Magician Considering how the physical box art was revealed with the ESRB and Pegi ratings, I believe there is a physical release, which is good news

@Eef Even with that, it still says the games have the Japanese songs and exclusive songs from other franchises. Also it states that no drum controller is coming to the west.

@Anti-Matter That may or may not be the case according to this article: https://www.polygon.com/2018/7/27/17621536/taiko-drum-master-nintendo-switch-ps4-release-date

@justin233 @Tim_Vreeland @Ryu_Niiyama Sadly the drum is not coming to the West: https://www.polygon.com/2018/7/27/17621536/taiko-drum-master-nintendo-switch-ps4-release-date

@Eef That seems to be the case: https://www.polygon.com/2018/7/27/17621536/taiko-drum-master-nintendo-switch-ps4-release-date

Well, I plan to buy the game this week anyway. At Target (in US) the game on Switch is only 29.98, and they also have a 50% coupon with their Catwheel app. That’s basically $15 for this game!!! That’s a deal in my book (only until February 4).
