Nex Playground - The Active Play System for Kids & Families where Indoor Physical Activity Meets Interactive Family Fun and Is Great for Gaming Nights, Parties and Playdates

First, as a UX and graphic designer, I love the design of everything about the Nex Playground. Opening it was easy, and setup was understandable and easy for anyone. The onboarding was fun and creative. I wish there were more games in the catalog, but the games available were definitely worth the buy. This is great for apartment living and during the cold winter when your toddlers can't go outside; it solves many sensory issues. Keeping my kids active and keeping me in shape at the same time with a variety of creative activity games is amazing, and it makes for great family game nights. If you are looking for something fun for your kids that keeps them active, this is the buy for you. As a father of two toddlers with autism, I can honestly say this brings me back to when I had an Xbox Connect as a kid and I am happy my kids will be able to experience what I experienced. Looks good with my other systems.

I'll start with the company and their customer service which is exceptional. Needed a replacement cord and the service I received and speed of shipping were better than any company I have dealt with in a very long time. Quick responses, super fast resolution and very friendly and informative.As for game play.... The game itself is very easy to play and the responsiveness to your body movements is very smooth. In our family we have people playing from ages 67 down to 3 and we all are absolutely loving it.Another great plus is that we live in Minnesota and the winters get very long and sedentary. This game gets the energy out for the little ones with the great selection of kids games and keeps us older adults moving with both the games and the workout routines.This little game cube provides ease of use, small and compact size and something for everyone to enjoy.I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants either themselves or their little ones to get up and get moving. It's fun exercise!

We set up our Nex Playground for my son's birthday this weekend and aolutely love it. We're a family with kids from 7 to 15 years old, and we all had so much fun. I had been looking for a game system I could say yes too, after struggling over games that keep kids sitting and isolated, staring at a small screen. This game system is different! It's very easy to hook up and gets rid of the annoying separate controller. We always lose/break/fight over controllers, so having a system without one is amazing. There is one master control remote but apparently you can use a regular remote if it gets lost, which is a huge relief. Otherwise the controller for all games is you and your body! The game comes with a small selection of games, which is great to start, but with the subscription (an annual fee) you get a really good, varied assortment of games. Some people may not like that model, but as a Nintendo-playing family, I love it and think it's a great deal. For the price of one or two games on a Nintendo system, you get access to a library of ever-expanding games on the Nex. I like having jumped in slightly late as there are a lot of games to choose from. Our favorite games currently are Starri (dance rhythm game), fruit ninja, bowling, and an airplane flight game. When we turned it on, even the kids' grandma wanted to try playing! I love watching my kids play actively together and have fun moving their bodies in a game. Its great to see them playing cooperatively and talking to each other. Selecting options with body and hand motions feels active even while using a screen. I felt sore (in a good way!) after playing enthusiastically the previous day. The best endorsement came from my 15 year old, who said she had been skeptical when I first mentioned getting the system, but "it was a really good idea, Mom." I agree!The company itself also feels very fresh and enthused about its product, like the best kind of start-up. The insider community on Facebook is a terrific way to get insight into thr company's plans for the future and current activity. They are very transparent about what they're doing and developing, and appear to always be working on improving and tweaking existing games. This is another feature where they surpass the competition, as competitor's games are not as easily improved or expanded upon once published.This is a long review, but can be summed up easily- my family loves the Nex! It's the best purchase I've made for our family in a long time.
