Namco Bandai Editor's Day: Down The Slope With We Ski

We Ski is everything you would expect from a Wii skiing game and oh so much more. At first glance I figured it would be as simple as moving your remotes around to simulate the skiing and maybe a few races and runs, but We Ski actually goes much deeper.

The game makes use of the remote and nunchuk control as well as the soon to be released Balance Board. However, the balance board is not necessary to have to be able to play the game. It is much more fun with it though, I can tell you that. As you can imagine, getting on the Balance Board will allow you to lean to the left and right, thus making your little skier curve to the left or the right on his little skiis. The remote and nunchuk are used to simulate the poles and the whole control scheme really gives one the feeling of actual skiing despite the cartoony surroundings.

It also may very well feature races with bets involving hamburgers, but we're not sure. Press release action right after this! More »
