This study evaluated the effects of integrating EXGs into conventional therapy (CT) on functional mobility. Methods: Sixty participants were randomized into an EXG\/CT group or a CT-only group. The interventions lasted 10 weeks (3 sessions\/week), and the EXGs were selected from the interactive game Ring Fit Adventure (Nintendo Switch\u00ae, Kyoto, Japan). Results: Functional mobility (Timed Up and Go test) significantly improved in the EXG\/CT group but not in the CT group. Additionally, lower-limb strength and aerobic endurance increased in the EXG\/CT group. No adverse events were reported, and the adherence was high. Conclusions: These findings support EXG-based interventions as a viable complement to CT. Future studies should design OA-specific EXGs and include patient subgroups to expand the impact of interventions using virtual systems.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm14092968","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,25]],"date-time":"2025-04-25T06:10:13Z","timestamp":1745561413000},"page":"2968","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Effectiveness of Exergames on Functional Physical Performance in Older Adults with Knee\/Hip Osteoarthritis: A Randomized Controlled Trial"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4271-9657","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Claudio","family":"Carvajal-Parodi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Escuela de Kinesiolog\u00eda, Facultad de Odontolog\u00eda y Ciencias de la Rehabilitaci\u00f3n, Universidad San Sebasti\u00e1n, Lientur #1457, Concepci\u00f3n 4030000, Chile"},{"name":"Programa de Doctorado en Ciencias de la Actividad F\u00edsica y del Deporte, Campus Puerto Real, Universidad de C\u00e1diz, Avda.
