Namco's 'We Ski' coming to US in spring 2008
Narrowly avoiding the obvious and overused pun, Namco Bandai has announced intentions to bring its Japanese Wii title Family Ski over to North America as We Ski. Like the Japanese version, We Ski will be fully compatible with the Wii Balance Board, allowing players to shimmy and slalom their way down the virtual mountains.
We Ski matches Nintendo's family-friendly aesthetic with cutesy customizable characters, and the option to import your Mii's and let them join in on all the snowy action. In addition to the standard ski modes, the game also includes free-style and photography modes, and allows up to four players to ski free on over a dozen courses.
With the title announced for a spring 2008 release, and the Wii Balance Board making its way to North America on May 19, We Ski will undoubtedly become the unofficial companion game to the Wii Fit package, as the first third-party software to support the peripheral.

I can see how this game might be amuzing with a proper dosage of alcohol. But $100 for the Jack Lelane Stepper and $50 for the game? No...not worth the money.

Not any kind of alcohol: We Ski needs Whiskey.

Oh boy! Another Wii game where I can play with watermelon mouthed characters. I think the shine is off the Wii apple now.

This is exactly what the Wii needs: more mini-games that can be used with over-priced acessories.

Is being unappealing wrong?
Your avatar looks wrong.

Thank you for reminding me that the internet is a wonderful place to surf.

If you want to ski, why not go outside and learn to play a real guitar?
huh?

Skiing in spring? It's more likely than you think.
