Good Family Wii Games

Darrell · 12-31-2009, 02:57 PM

We got the kids a Wii for Christmas and are looking for a few fun family games. So far we have:

Wii Sports
Wii Sports Resort
Beatles Rock Band

Any suggestions are appreciated.

My kid just got one as well and damn those games are a workout.

Mario Kart (with wheels)
New Super Mario Bros. It's up to 4 players.

Thanks Gary.

I know what you mean about a workout. I played a couple games of boxing back-to-back and I was sweating afterward!

I feel your pain bro. My son and I play some pretty heated games of Tennis and I about passed out last night.

Carnival games is a good one. Shoot me a PM with your addy, I'd be glad to let you borrow it.

DecaSports and DecaSports 2 are pretty cool. Each has a couple of lame sports like curling, and synchronized swimming, but there's some cool stuff like snowboarding, archery, basketball, hockey, soccer, etc...
My wife got me Lego Star Wars for Christmas. The Wii version is a mashup of both LSW games. It's goofy, but fun.

Add another vote for Mario Kart, it's ridiculously addictive. The new Punch-out is pretty fun too, especially if you get the balance board.

McSmokey · 12-31-2009, 06:00 PM

Wii fit plus
pinball
new super Mario bros
rampage world tour

My wife loves WarioWare Smooth Moves.

streetglide · 12-31-2009, 07:16 PM

Put me down for Mario Kart as well. The fam. wii "jogging" as I type. A video game that makes you run in place.....and we bought it. Whats next?

ggainey · 12-31-2009, 07:30 PM

Don't know too much about it, but my step kids all got wiis for Christmas. Have played the sports one and got whipped at baseball tonight by my 10 year old grandson.

acruce · 12-31-2009, 09:46 PM

My wife loves Wii Just Dance . I have yet to try it because I have no rhythm

Whynot · 01-01-2010, 12:39 AM

Big Brain Academy is pretty fun.

Jbailey · 01-01-2010, 12:41 AM

Another vote for the New Mario Brothers Game.

Ultimate Party Challenge (requires dance pad)

I second Super Mario Wii and Mario Kart.
Force Unleashed is a great game but not sure it's a "family" game.
