[lovest123]

Do you HAVE to buy the green belt?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@lovest123 The belt came with my game. You do need it.

[Powhatangirl77]

[piantagenil]

[SofiaAlejandra9]

[Nikki80ful]

Thx

[bonitabriana]

Awesome job on the review! I will defenitly be buying it very soon because of your review! Have you seen results as far as weight loss?

[AntonioMarkeith]

; what are the ladies names ? I wanted to know , my favorite is the one in the background of this video .

[briesibleyy]

really nice review!! Still thinking about whether to buy it... I'm not the best at dancing honestly, but I want to learn, and Zumba is just the best!! :) i need to learn before i go embarrass myself at the gym, lol.

[Caique262626]

Do they have the old song's of Zumba ? Like the one's from Zumba Fitness 1?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@Caique262626 The game doesn't have the old songs from Zumba Fitness 1, just new ones :)

[smileysheila12]

This game looks amazing.

[anna12909]

hi one quik question how do u add players on zumba 2 i tried nd idk how to add them?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@anna12909 If I can remember correctly, the other controller activated it to add multiplayers...if not try the options screen on the game. Sorry, my game is packed away in a box since I am in the process of moving.

[Shirinpuff]

I got it

[yesilikedrpepper]

Super Helpful!

[chocoshake2]

very helpful! thanks

[x3FAWWLx3]

Could someone tell me the list of songs they have?

[mayawulf]

Informative, well thought out review, and you're lovely & fit with loads of enthusiasm. Convinced me to go buy it, so thanks!

[Nickypink09]

SophiaAlajandra I have this game plus I have Zumba fitness on dvds as well, and from what I see you look as if you do Zumba Fitness 2 almost every day, may I ask you, have you toned up or lost any weight since you've been doing it, because I'm wondering if I should do more of that! What do you think? Is zumba fitness 2 on the wii better than the DVDs please let me know!

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@Nickypink09 I haven't done Zumba on dvd's, I would switch between Zumba at the gym and Zumba on Wii, I have seen great results, a lot of toning for sure!! Thank you for your comment!!

[pinkinDE]

I didn't bother getting the 1st Zumba because i thought it looked lame. But for some reason I was drawn to try Zumba 2. I absolutely loved it! I am a gym rat and let me say this, just doing the mid-length classes will have you drenched in sweat while you're working your entire body. I prefer to do zumba 2 on my cardio days, it's far more fun than running in a hamster wheel. (treadmill). With a balanced diet and 3-5 days of zumba a week you will totally see results! Try it.

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@pinkinDE I completely agree with you!

[CR1788]

how do you set up the game so it detects my controller because it wasn't giving me any sort of feedback like nice ,etc when i was playing and at the end it said 0% technique and 0 score:S

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@CR1788 Make sure the sensor box is up and the cord part of the controller is at the bottom when placing it in the belt, buttons facing out, away from the body. Hope this helps!!

[plaza65]

Hi Sofi,

We are in our way to buy Zumba for family fun and i would like to recognized that your reviews are very us useful. Many thanks and God Bless U..!

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@plaza65 Thank you so much!!

[mysterycheez]

I have been really enjoying the first Zumba Wii game and am looking forward to getting this one, too! Thanks for the review, it's very helpful!

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@mysterycheez Thanks for watching it!!

[gaylecooney]

How does it compare to Just Dance 2?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@gaylecooney I like Just Dance 2 but I find this game (Zumba Fitness 2) is more for exercise than anything.

[ShammRoxx]

what lip gloss are you wearing?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@ShammRoxx Elf "Brownie Points" :)

[ShammRoxx]

@SofiaAlejandra9 thx girl <3 got it and the Zumba 2 also, appreciate your review *girly hugs*

[wowkitty2010]

Great review!! Looks way better than zumba 1!! The songs on that one were lame

[tropaze]

Thank you for the review. It's coming out on xbox next month and I wasn't sure if I was going to get it, I did not like the first game. This once reminds me more of dance central which I like, and it has more songs that I recognize from Zumba class. If anyone has both a Wii and xbox I would wait for the xbox version, they say they're supposed to be making downloadable content to add later!

[estrellita07100]

Do you need to buy Wii fitness to play cause I have.the Wii already.

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@estrellita07100 All you need is your Wii!

[PorchaSwag143]

i be hittin dat!~~

[musicislife4me94]

Too advanced for me, thanks tho (=

[MissPowderedCandy]

I love We Speak No Americano! I'm really excited to have that in the game. :D I'm waiting for it to come out on Kinect.

[Aldrrriii]

do we need to make our own move or there will be a dance moves that will be shown on the screen ?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@Aldrrriii It gives you all the dance moves.

[pezcorelove]

i was about to ask the same question as @probeauty411 ! i was wondering why i havent been hitting the points! Thanks sofia!

[PetADinosaur]

In your opinion, for weight lost, which one is better? Zumba 1 or 2?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@PetADinosaur I would say #2. :)

[MissHollistergirl996]

this game is so fun and we speak no ameriano is my favorite one too

[hemmegirl1]

I think the beginner is low intens. the intermediate is medium intens. and the Advan./expert is high intensity!!

[TheEnviousHeartbreak]

I just bought it, and I'm so excited I can't wait to play!

[Mr123goodman123]

why did u waste some of ya time talking?



[SofiaAlejandra9]

@Mr123goodman123 It's called a REVIEW. No offense but am I supposed to just show you the box and just stare at you...?? Or should I tell you about the game and actually review it for you?? Some people actually want to hear about the game and not just see Game Play...

[ProBeauty411]

Even when im doing the moves right, it never gives me any points! Like, you know how when you dance there are stars on the bottom? Well i never get any stars. What am i doing wrong???

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@ProBeauty411 I am not sure, check your remote, make sure it is set in place on your belt. I don't have that problem when I play the game.

[ProBeauty411]

@SofiaAlejandra9 Oh, Well. It might be the remote cuz it doesnt give my sister any points either. Dont you put the remote in the belt upside-down? Buttons facing outwards?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@ProBeauty411 The remote should be upright in the belt, as if you were holding it...the cord should be at the bottom, and the square sensor on top..buttons facing outwards.

[pointblock]

@SofiaAlejandra9 Top tip!! My wife had been getting no points, then I saw this, she turned it over and suddenly she's a pro! :-)

[aangel310]

K my iPad keeps sending it sorry. Want to know how fast you are seeing results. Never been to a rumba class or done it before. But I really want the game if it works for staying fit and losing weight. Thanx

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@aangel310 If you are looking to lose weight and staying fit, this is a great game. It is a lot of cardio and you will sweat. I have been to zumba classes at the gym and this does compare.

[aangel310]

So after doing zumb

[aangel310]

So after doing zumb

[1992junekid]

I hate this game!! Mj experience is much better

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@1992junekid To each their own.

[narumineko]

so is it too hard for people that never played the first game?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@narumineko It's a challenge but with practice, you will get it.

[cf829]

Nice review!  Is there a way to add more songs through the internet?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@cf829 I don't think you can add any songs to the game.

[OhSoFreakinHaunted]

Thank you so much for this video! I bought this game as a christmas gift for my mom, and now thanks to your video I'm pretty sure I'm getting the best gift giver award this year =)

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@OhSoFreakinHaunted I really love the game! Now if I could only find the time to play!

[chrissy22506]

This has a ton of views! lol

[foreverfireflies101]

We No Speak Americano is one of my favorite songs too!!!

p.s. I loved your review + comparison, I bought this game at London Drugs, but they have a 15 day return policy and the game had to be un-opened. But this video really helped me decide that I should keep it!!!!!!!! Thanks!! :D

[Jpteam101]

I would like to see the one song that is called Ta Picao. I really like the beat to it. Can you show it to me?

[gbwcrockett84]

Can you unlock new venues in the game?

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@gbwcrockett84 Yes you can unlock them by earning trophies.

[gbwcrockett84]

@SofiaAlejandra Cool! Thank you for telling me.. :)

[TheRashanator]

Did you notice the Wii remote is more accurate in some songs than others. I find it wasn't recording me perfectly in "we speak no americano" or "zoka zumba". I wonder if I should change the way I wear the wii remote. I know I'm doing the moves very well.

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@TheRashanator Some songs yes seem to record better than others. I think that this game compared to the last Zumba game is better at recognizing movement overall.

[TheRashanator]

@SofiaAlejandra9 Agreed! I'm finding that the majority of the low intensity song are lenient in movement detection and some of the more advanced ones are a bit harder. That's probably incentive for people to keep doing better and perfecting their form. I really like this game. These guys were paying attention to the feedback they got on the first game for sure. Every problem in the first game (which i loved) was fixed in that one!

[Rezzmiester101]

ty for your informative review. You have given this 17st guy inspiration to lose some :D ty

[Thrillbeatz21]

Cool video I love it cant wait to play it.

[ChelleCat]

im so adding this game to my christmas wish list!!! i love the first zumba, do u like this one better? do u get a better workout? the graphics are so much better too!

[SofiaAlejandra9]

@ChelleCat I do like this one a lot better!! The music and graphics are much better. The workouts are fast on this one so it seems like it will burn more calories!
