I don't understand your question.
No problems with the balance board or any controls.
I just play it. LOL

Love my Wii

I have the Wii and Wii fit. I use it almost everyday. No problems. I don't do anything that would require me to get the PM close to the balance board and I try to keep the controllers away from my PM, but I have never had any negative effect from the Wii. I started "walking" on the Wii 2 days after surgery(Got my PM on 1/25/10). It has been a big help to making me stronger and besides, it is FUN!.
Have a good day!

Wii is not just for kids

I have played a few times and I have not had an interference what so ever. I am not addicted to it either. I don't play that often. With everything just try to do it the best as you can and if it gets uncomfortable quit playing it for awhile then go back to it and try it again.

Did as much research as I could to see if the wii was ok with a pacemaker but not really any definite answer so have just done wii fit nearly every day since and no problems. Forgot about not going near the board and did downward dog (yoga) the other day no issues. We love it too.

I've been using my wii and wii fit since January without any issues. I've lost about 30 pounds along the way and feel like I'm in better shape than I've been in years. My pacemaker tech and cardiologist told during my last check to "keep doing whatever I'm doing: The only thing I hestitated on was any push-ups becuase it reallt felt uncomfortable. But, there are no pm issues at all.
