Default To Wii or not to Wii

Hi all, been thinking of getting a Wii Fit but want to know if anyone else has gotten one. My balance and mobility and coordination are terrible and I wanted to know if I could still use it. I used to be fit and active and not doing stuff is slowly driving me mad and I thought a Wii might help but not sure.

I get two types of loss of balance - one vertigo type, and the other is the more drunken stumbling type, veering to the left all the time although I want to go in another direction etc. I've recently noticed that the second type seems to get worse in dark or low light, and I also get a falling over backwards sensation too, but this is not connected to do with eyesight issues as far as I can tell, it's just that my balance gets worse the darker it gets! I constantly feel like I’m dancing in the dark and not sure I could Wii.
