Active Life: Outdoor Challenge (Family Trainer outside North America) is a fitness game released for the Wii in 2008 developed by h.a.n.d. and published by Bandai Namco. Players use a bundled mat similar to the Power Pad in conjunction with the Wii remote in order to complete a variety of mini-games. As this game's unique pad controller is designed to physically connect to the Wii via its GameCube controller ports, this game is incompatible with later Wii models, which eliminated the said ports. The game was ported to the Nintendo Switch in 2020, coming with leg straps to attach the Joy-Cons.
