Whiskey?

We Ski Trailer (Wii)

Of course not! Yesterday I picked up We Ski for the Wii. Produced by Bandai Namco it one the first games to support Nintendo’s balance board. Unlike the skiing game included with Wii Fit, you can play this game without it.

Using the wii mote and nunchuck configuration allows users to feel like you’re really skiing. It’s a free flowing game with no pressure. You can create a character or use your Mii. But if you use your Mii, you won’t be able to equip goggles or head gear. It’s a bit confusing at first but tricks are easy to perform. Even the ski lift is fun. Wandering around the ski resort will get you from one ski lift to another. You’ll bump into characters that will take your picture that you can share with your friends. Sadly, there’s no online multiplayer.

I’ll post another review once I get the balance board. But first impressions are good so far.
