The Bandai pedometer moves beyond your normal pedometer in that it's also a calorie calculator too. It doesn't stop there though as it also has a mini game included which is kind of Samurai style. The more you walk, run etc... the more you achieve on the game.
The idea behind having a calorie calculator and game is that you will want to win the game and to do that you need to live a more healthy lifestyle.
If you are after a pedometer and want some encouragement too then check it out as it looks quite cool.
