 Great game May 21, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have been playing this game with the remote for almost a week now and have loved it. Up to 4 players, limited not only by remote but also numchuck. This is the only game I own that has required the use of 4 numchucks and I only have 2, so for now its just a 2-player game. I have never been able to ski but have always wanted to and I love this game. I am now playing it with the balance board and it makes the game that much more fun. Do note that only one player can play when the balance board is in use. It is a blast being able to shift from side to side and actually move the direction you lean. Great price, great game. This game is a lot more fun and much better than the two ski activities that come with the board. Free skate nine course and get rated on them, and compete in races, salom, search and rescue, and much more.
Wii Ski is LOTS OF FUN! July 16, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I think this is one of the most fun Wii games on the market today. Up to 4 players can compete skiing down the various mountain trails. You can even use the Wii balance board if you wish. Very pleased with this game and highly recommend it to anyone.
Great Family Game and Great for Wii balance board May 23, 2008
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought this game only because i got 10 off when i bought Wii Fit. After using the balance board with this game I'm glad i got it. I haven't been skiing in a couple of years but this game brought back so many memory's like i was really skiing. Another great thing about this game is that you can ski with friends and family, using the Wii remote and numchuck. its not just racing like you might think, its a whole ski mountain you and family and friends can explore. If you don't believe me just give it a chance i think you too will be amazed.
Fun game with good graphics October 18, 2008

I like to ski and this game only intensifies my desire to get out on the slopes (unfortunately, I only go on ski trips once a year in a big bolus).
The set up of your character allows you to pick various items such as clothing, skis, hat, goggles. Although tedious, it is fun for youngsters.
The interface allows you to play with 2 players using the conventional remote/joystick. Unfortunately, you can only use the Wii Fit Board solo. That is a main limitation of the game. It would be ideal if you could use both the Wii Fit Board and joystick/remote for 2 players. That would add to the realism. Maybe a We Ski 2 is in the making for something to replicate real motions. However, this is still a fun game.
The graphics are very good and augmented with my 50" Plasma, I can stare into the screen and at least, visually, feel like I am going down the terrain.
Different modes such as solo racing, freestyle and racing with friends are various options. The split screen is a nice touch when racing with friends/family.
Tutorials run you through the various maneuvers to get through various obstacles, various tricks and techniques.
Despite its limitations, it is a game that can hook you into playing for several hours and really make you lose track of time. This is a wonderful game for family/friends. With the low price, it is also a very good value.
Skiing to the top! December 11, 2008

(This review was done by my 10-year-old son, Chad Beck who can't wait to become a reviewer. These are his words.)
We Ski is a game with lots of challenges. When you ski you can do awesome tricks like the corkscrew,rodeo and back flips. When I first got the game, I thought "Man it's not boring" and when I started playing it, it was actually fun. I asked my brother, who is 7,what he'd rate We Ski? He said he would probably give it five stars! So I guess he agrees with me. To me We Ski is a game that you should really get!
