My Weight Loss Coach Announced by Ubisoft

In a move that strengthens Ubisoft’s casual gamer position, My Weight Loss Coach for the Nintendo DS was announced.  This new title will be part of the other educational DS products such as My Word Coach and My Spanish Coach released by Ubisoft.

The title is being developed by Ubisoft Montreal under strict guidance of a fitness coach and a nutritionist.  The program is supposed to act as a guide for living a healthy lifestyle.  If the previous titles in the series are any indication, then My Weight Loss Coach should be quite well made.

“ The game creates customized coaching sessions based on skill level, and, for the first time on DS, includes a pedometer. My Weight Loss Coach not only allows users to take control of their physical well-being, but it does so in a fun and engaging manner .”

My Weight Loss Coach features include:

• Personal Profiles: Create your personal profile and evaluate your improvement potential, then set up your objectives following the recommendations based on your personal profile.
• Input Reward System: Log your progress on a daily or weekly basis, tracking your physical activity and nutrition habits.
• The Pedometer: A peripheral device that comes with the game and can be easily updated through your DS, it’s the best way to control your daily physical effort, challenge yourself and balance your food intake.
• Real-Life Landmark Checkpoints: As a reward, all the physical activities you achieve and good nutrition habits you acquire are converted into measurable distances based on real examples.

My Weight Loss Coach is rated E for Everyone by the ERSB and will be available this summer.
