I hope this helps a little bit...

-Batteries for the remotes (or you can get a charging station that includes rechargeables specifically for the Wii - I just picked one up). The remotes take 2-AA/each remote

2. I'm thinking of getting my wife Wii Fit. She currently rides a Lifecycle and does yoga and this might give her a little change of pace. Are there any accessories I'll need with Wii fit, other than the board?

-I don't believe so (but not 100% positive); we don't have it but I've heard good things.

3. Are there any good games for 10-year-old girls? She's super smart, loves to read, and is an equestrian.

-not sure....kids (and I) love Guitar Hero...perhaps she would enjoy Rock Band because her friends can play along with her. I'd check out some game ranking websites...you might be able to look up 'Best for Age Group'

4. My son is the ultimate Star Wars nerd, so we're getting him the new Lightsaber Duel game and probably the Lightsaber controller add-ons. He also loves his sports games on the PS2. Are the EA sports games (Madden 09, NHL 09, etc) better on the Wii than on the PS2?

-no clue, sorry!
