Ski on 14 different courses with Wii We Ski! (10th on our list of Top Wii games). Take your choice of beginner course or go all the way with the black diamonds! Ski in the day, ski at night with the fireworks showing the way. There are other activiites to do with the Wii Ski too, including Ski School, Centipede races and Search and Rescue.
Then, when you're all worn out for the day, head to the ski lodge for a nice cup of hot chocolate. :)

Wars: Lightsaber Duels
7. of the Top 10 Wii Games is Star Wars - The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels.
(Pssst - I predict that this one will rise higher on the "charts".)
In this game, the Wii remote is used as a lightsaber to fight the most memorable lightsaber duels in the Clone Wars movies and TV series.
You can play with your friends as various characters that can include both villain and Star Wars heroes.
Implement "environmental" strategies by using the virtual environment to battle your opponents, or directly fight and become a real master of the lightsaber.
Real Star Wars and Clone Wars fans can become completely immersed in these games as they realistically duel it out just like the real thing.
Star Wars - The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels is exclusively a Wii game.

3. Wii Fit
There are a couple of major ways that Wii Fit can be used - playing sports-type games and also it can be used as a whole fitness system. There are more than 40 types of fitness activities so that this game can appeal to all types of people in the household. All are focused on improving balance and fitness of the body.
Included in the system is the Wii Balance Board, which is pressure-sensitive, and is the core of the system. Players concentrate on balance of the body for most (if not all) the activities.
This may be the most unique concept in Wii games yet!

No pressure, no stress to "play it just right" - just have some real musical fun!
1. Wii Mario Kart with Wii Wheel
Another Mario game takes the #1 position this year! (Last year Super Mario Galaxy was #1.) Mario Kart with Wii Wheel takes "1st prize" for the top Wii video game for 2008 and into 2009.
Race with Mario and his friends on the "Mushroom Kingdom" tracks - for this game, more tracks are available and enhanced graphics too. Single and multiplayer mode.
The Wii Wheel that is included with this game makes the driving seem more natural, and players will feel more in control of their racing.
Wooo Hooo!
