Fit to Fight: Tanita’s KOF ’98 Body Composition Analyzer

As part of the King of Fighters 30th anniversary celebrations, SNK has teamed up with Tanita, a well-known Japanese manufacturer of health monitoring devices, to create a unique product that combines gaming with health tracking. The standout device in this collaboration is a body composition analyzer that not only provides detailed health metrics but also allows users to play The King of Fighters ’98 while using it.

Key Features of the KOF ’98 Body Monitor:

  • Health Monitoring: The device is designed for professional use and offers comprehensive body composition analysis, including measurements of body fat, muscle mass, and other health indicators for different parts of the body.

  • Gaming Integration: In a unique twist, users can connect a controller to the machine and play The King of Fighters ’98. This feature allows users to engage in matches against other players while simultaneously tracking their health data.

  • Storage Capabilities: The body monitor can store up to one million measurements, which can be viewed on its LCD screen. This makes it a high-end device for both health professionals and enthusiasts who want to keep track of their fitness progress over time.

  • Price: The device is priced at around 2 million yen (approximately $13,000 USD), making it a premium product aimed at serious users or institutions rather than casual consumers.

This collaboration between Tanita and SNK is part of both companies’ anniversary celebrations—Tanita’s 80th anniversary and SNK’s 30th anniversary of The King of Fighters series. While the device is primarily focused on health tracking, its integration with KOF ’98 adds a fun and nostalgic element for fans of the iconic fighting game series.
