Product Description

Product Description

Fresh powder, miles of pristine slopes and unstoppable winter fun drift onto Wii in this exciting, fun and feature-packed snowboarding and skiing sequel to the critically acclaimed Family Ski. Family Ski & Snowboard is fully compatible with the Wii Balance Board for a truly immersive experience!

  • Enhanced Maneuvering: Trick skiing, including backwards-riding, flips, daffy ducks and helicopters are now possible! Snowboard goofy or regular and twist, turn and flip as much as your body can bear. Jump anywhere, anytime! And put your improved skill set to the test in the brand new Family Ski & Snowboard "Fun Park," complete with huge half-pipe, rails and fun boxes.
  • Interactive, Dynamic Environment: Perform jumps wherever you want to on skis or snowboards in a fully-explorable environment.
  • Beautiful Scenery: With 7,000 vertical metres to explore over two massive mountains, there is a virtual world of wintry wonder to wander! And with Day, Afternoon and Night riding modes, you can set the mood as you see fit!
  • Relive the Memories: Replays can occur in any game mode at any time, and from multiple camera angles, just like on TV! Any instance in a replay can be captured as a static photo.
  • Interactive Additions: NPC's can be recruited in gameplay as tour guides around the mountain, and NPC's and Mii's are there to keep you company, skiing or snowboarding with you, ahead of you or behind you.
  • Please Note: Wii Console and Wii Fit Not Included

5.0 out of 5 stars If you have Family Ski, buy this, 28 Feb 2009
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Family Ski And Snowboard (Wii) (Video Game)
Having bought the original game when it was released I was looking very forward to the new version.

Gone are the regimented runs criss crossing the mountain, now there's 2 mountains to explore, 1 with marked runs (in the same kind of style from Family Ski), the second gives you the whole mountain to ski round as you please.

The graphics are starting to really push what's capable of the Wii and are stunning in places.

In short, if you liked the original, you'll love the new version.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Fun, 2 Mar 2009
By pinkpanther (Scotland) - See all my reviews
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Family Ski And Snowboard (Wii) (Video Game)
Having really enjoyed playing Wii Ski I was looking forward to this game. If has not dissapointed. I really like the "Free Sking" of Mt Angelo. If is exciting and quite breathtaking. Kangaroo Park in the Jamboree Ski Resort is also excellent and you have the options of lots and lots of different tricks. The runs are much more freeform and you can ski off piste. I also like the fact that you can meet other people and ski with them. The only thing I dislike is not getting the instant feedback at the end of each run.
In general I think this is much more of an adult game than the orginal some of the freeskiing is quite scary especially when you get caught in an Avalanche or Ski down a gorge. The task to get points are quite difficult as are finding some of the "Hide and seek" and "Herb" folk but this is beacuse you have so much more to explore. This on the whole not a bad thing as I think it will for me at least make the game more long lived.
I would have given this game 4 1/2 points if possible because the only thing I would have added would have been the instant feedback.

4.0 out of 5 stars A worthy addition to Family Ski, 2 Mar 2009
By C. J. Evans (Staffordshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Family Ski And Snowboard (Wii) (Video Game)
This game has some exciting additions to the original - such as snowboarding, extra tricks, and being able to use the balance board alongside friends skiiing with you - but seems to have lost some of its appeal for younger users. I can't find any hidden animals, and you don't get instant feedback as you finish each run. The documentation isn't as good either as there aren't any reminders of the trick controls, or a map of the hills. I haven't explored much of the mountain yet, but this is a really wild place to ski/snowboard.
