Basically I am super pumped! My beautiful fiancé bought me a Wii for my birthday and it’s been a ton of fun. I just pre-ordered the much anticipated Super Smash Brothers Brawl but I have a feeling as soon as We Ski is released the brawl is going to be retired pretty quickly (yeah yeah I’m not that hardcore).

Check out the sweet ski gear on the Mii’s; so glad they didn’t forget the importance of style when it comes to winter sports. If we’re lucky we’ll be able to unlock a sweet 80’s style one piece with DayGlo to boot!

Anyways here’s the press release from Namco:

NAMCO BANDAI GAMES BRINGS THE SLOPES HOME WITH WE SKI™ Edge through the Alpine with Your Friends as Four Player Skiing Comes to Wii

SANTA CLARA, Calif., (March 3, 2008) – Step onto your Wii Balance Board™ or grab your Wii Remote™ and Nunchuk™ and hit the fresh powder as NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc., today announced We Ski™, an exciting skiing game for Wii™. Now up to four skiers can experience the sweetest mountain runs in the comfort of their homes as We Ski’s highly responsive and intuitive controls take them down the slopes like never before. We Ski will slalom into stores in Spring 2008.

“We are thrilled to be the first publisher to offer a realistic and enjoyable skiing experience that can also support the new Wii Balance Board,” said Todd Thorson, Director of Marketing and Public Relations for NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. “NAMCO BANDAI is working to entertain both casual gamers and hardcore enthusiasts with a recreation of a beloved sport and pastime.”

In We Ski, up to four skiers can test their skills on more than a dozen runs from the bunny slopes to the most challenging Black Diamonds. Not only can players carve through the trails using the motion-based controls but they can also mix in the Wii Balance Board for a whole new level of realism. Players can ski using their own Mii™ or create a new character with a host of customizable options including changeable face and body types. Boosting the customization feature, additional skis, poles, goggles, and costumes can be unlocked.

We Ski features an entire mountain to explore, complete with a ski school, freestyle skiing, moguls and slaloms, photography, and a variety of other events. Players can even try their hand at night skiing while enjoying the spectrum of fireworks that color the sky. With We Ski no more long drives to the snow will be necessary to enjoy a day of shredding the mountains.

From the perspective of a true skier and gamer I don’t know how I could be more pumped! Keep skiing!
