The three best Family Wii games for Christmas 2011
Christmas and family go hand in hand. But what about Christmas and the Nintendo Wii? Christmas is such a special time, and until I saw the three new releases from EA Games, I didn’t think a Wii would be an integral part of Christmas.
But it could be! Get ready for some family fun!

The three best family Wii games for Christmas starts with ‘Family Game Night 4 – The Game Show’ RRP £49.99, which is an absolute blast. The game features 5 of Hasbro’s best loved games, in Wii format. Connect 4, Yahtzee, Boggle, Bop It and Sorry! come to life as interactive 3D board games.
The games are not direct casts of the original games. They have been injected with fun and the Wii formula. Connect 4 Basketball needs you to shoot four hoops to get your four in a row and Yahtzee now comes in a bowling format…Oh it’s good!
These old favourites reinvented for the Wii will keep the whole family entertained all through Christmas, New Year and beyond.
The next of our three best Family Wii games for Christmas is the awesome ‘Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part Two’ RRP £29.99. It seems anything that can be done on the Silver Screen can be matched by EA Games. The final instalment of the film is faithfully adapted for the Wii (and other formats) and offers an in depth look into the world of Hogwarts and beyond.
You can choose which character you want to play as from Harry, Hermione, Ron, Ginny, Seamus, Neville, Molly Weasley to Professor McGonagall. The objective is simple – Defeat Voldemort!
Before you have got to the main man though you will also have to battle defeat Death Eaters, Snatchers, and giants. The game is fun packed at a fast pace set in stunning rendering.
The third of our three best Family Wii games for Christmas is the latest release of ‘Trivial Pursuit – Bet You Know It!’ RRP £29.99. You actually get TWO games in this release – The standard version we all know and love, and a new version ‘Bet You Know It’, which is a lot of fun if you like a little bit of mischief making!
The new game gives everyone a go, and you can bet that the person who is being asked the question will know the answer, or not. Chances to steal wedges to win the game. Personally, I loved it!
With all new categories Jingles, 80’s Music & Movies, Videogames and Slang everyone can enjoy this great new Triv release. The Bet You Know It works really well on the Wii.
So there you have the three best Family Wii games for Christmas 2011, get ready for max enjoyment!
