The Five Best Wii Games to Play With Your Date

You don't even need to wait for a dire date situation to bring the Wii out. It is a quintessential party game console. That being said, there are still good and bad games to bring out in a date setting. Try these five games out and you and your date can flail around with your "wiimotes" all night.

Wii Sports
Not only does this have the benefit of being a fun game for anyone to play, it also comes pre-packaged with the console so you are bound to have it. With five events to choose from, you are bound to find one that you and your date can enjoy. Make sure you try out boxing so you and your date can start the taunting and showboating to loosen up the mood.

Mario Kart
The classic racing game for Nintendo's Wii, Mario Kart is fun for nearly everyone. There is something in its consistent simplicity over its many iterations that keeps it going strong among all the other racing games out there. You can either go head to head in a race or face off in battle mode. Plus, if you and your date find that only two players is not enough, you can always add computer controlled opponents.

Super Mario Galaxy
Previous versions of the Super Mario series have had a multiplayer that forced one player to sit out while the other played. That is no longer the case with Super Mario Galaxy's Co-Star Mode. Give your date control of Mario while you play as the support by stopping enemies' movement and making Mario jump higher.

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
Yes, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance tends to be repetitive, but that just means that it won't be throwing any curve balls at your date. It is also a co-op game, so it gives you and your date a chance to enjoy the story side by side. Plus, if your date likes the game (and you) enough she always has a reason to come back and finish it.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Another classic from Nintendo that has survived through multiple consoles, Super Smash Bros. is a great game to play with your date. You can play as a team or fight against each other, as well as customize your battle rules and handicaps. In the "Special Brawl" mode you can even customize the fighters clothing. With all the different ways to play, this is bound to supply enough entertainment for your date.
