Hi

What would your top three games be....?

Any help would be most appreciated!!!

    We are a family with 2 Sons aged 9 and 6 - we all love the Wii. It is great to join the whole family in.

    Wii Fit is fantastic, a good laugh for all the family to join in, and a bit of fitness at the same time. It is actually worth the money.

    Big Brain Academy is good fun, and educational - you can race against each other doing puzzle type things if you have 2 remotes.

    We also love competing against each other on the Wii Play games.
    My Sons love the Wii Sports, which comes with the Wii anyway.

    Hope this helps!

  • I'd recommend *wii fit

    *Carnival Games (lots of funfair types games to play)

    and * Mario Party 8... (board game type games and lots of simple mini games to play!)

    My son is just 9 and loves these games =)

    We love Smooth Moves which has loads of silly games and is usually under £20 to buy.

    Its even got a little dance section where you have to copy moves - its great if you have a few friends around, put children to bed, have a few drinks and play it on 'expert' so it's really fast! Best laugh ever.
  • we too love wii fit, but my 2 year old is always getting in the way, but my 7 year old loves it.
  • I've only got the first one (i think the 3rd is now out), but the Rayman raving rabbits has a great variety of mini games, that make very good use of the motion sensitive aspect of the Wiimotes - some very funny in between games animation, that the kid will love as well.

    You should be able to pick up used copies from shop like Gamestation for £10 - £15
