Love the graphics in this game! Really stunning the pre-event crowds and activities are fun to watch! The events take a lot of work to learn how to win. I make GREAT jumps on the ski jumps but crash every landing. The downhillls are fun and I'm great friends with the fence! Hate the figure skating - just doesn't make sense. The luge and bobsled are great fun. Can't figure out the curling enough to enjoy it. Given enough time and desire, I suppose I could learn to love this game. REALLY enjoy the games where I can use my Miis, tho!

Some aspects of this game are good: nice graphics, funny commentators, variety of games. However, if you are not adept at doing different things with each hand at the same time, it can be frustrating. The motions needed for turning/steering are very, very subtle and sometimes pretty intricate, so there is a steep learning curve. In some events, you need to use the controller and do one motion with your right hand, and then use the nunchuck with a different motion in your left. For kids with lots of video experience, this may be part of the fun, but for younger kids (or us adults), even the beginner settings can be too difficult. We don't play it much.
Disappointing

We had high hopes for this game, but the bobsled/luge is WAY too easy and the skiing is WAY too difficult. For bobsled, all you do is tilt the controller one way or another, and it's very simple to stay in the line that they display for you. For skiing, it's not too bad, but unless you're extremely patient and want to practice a lot, it's difficult to see any improvement in the short-term.
Kids were bored after 2 days

Honestly most of the sports are just too hard to learn. The game my 10 year old liked the ice skating, which is like dance revolution but with your hands. But once she mastered it, she was all done with that. My six year old liked bobsled, which is like a driving game, but got bored with it pretty quickly. Even as an adult and knowing how to do most of sports personally, I found it to hard to learn which makes the games not fun.

We are fairly new to gaming. We really like Wii Sports as well as race games for Playstation like Crash Cart Nitro. Wii Winter Sports is very difficult to use. It does not seem to respond well to the controllers. I would not recommend this game to novice gamers.
Wow! it is bad...

I so wanted for this game to be good. I just couldn't sit and play it more than once. The controls are horrible. If you want to be frustrated this is the game for you. Graphics...um, bad. The game had so much potential but it just did not deliver. Pass on this one.
