Publisher Imagineer announced worldwide shipments figures for the Nintendo Switch exercise rhythm title, Fitness Boxing, have surpassed 300,000 units. The figure includes digital sales.

Fitness Boxing released for the Nintendo Switch in Japan in December 2018 and the rest of the world in January 2019.

Here is an overview of the game:

Get off the couch and get moving with fun, boxing-based rhythmic exercises set to the instrumental beats of songs by popular artists, including Lady Gaga, Pitbull and Kesha. You can personalize your workouts by selecting from different fitness goals. Train your way, whether you’re on your own, with a friend, at home, or on the go! Now you can work out anytime, anywhere on the Nintendo Switch system!

Get down your boxing basics while getting down to instrumental versions of 20 unlockable hit songs, including “Party Rock Anthem” by LMFAO, “Call Me Maybe” by Carly Rae Jepson, and “Sugar” by Maroon 5. Punch and squat while gripping the Joy-Con controllers to get your whole body moving—no additional gym equipment required!

Daily training ranges from 10 to 40 minutes and offers both Normal and Fast mode. The game software estimates your approximate BMI and daily calories burned so you can track your progress. Choose from a diverse group of trainers and customize their look with unlockable trainer outfits. As you progress, you can earn more songs and more challenging training circuits. If you prefer to work out with a buddy, you can use two sets of Joy-Con controllers or share a pair to enjoy working out cooperatively or test your skills by facing off against each other in a virtual ring!

Key Features:

Work up a sweat with boxing-based motion-controlled moves set to rhythm-based workouts.
Bop along to the instrumental versions of popular songs.
Personalize workouts by selecting your fitness goals.
Choose from short to long workouts to fit a variety of lifestyles.

I had little doubt this one would do well. But it’s only about 1/25th of the application many of the want. NOW! Hopefully this sends a message to Nintendo to finally release Switch Health/Fit. And hopefully they’ll add something to integrate free weights.
