My kids love MarioKart and Wii Sports (came with that one). The Star Wars Light Saber Duel (or whatever it's called) is also one they like to play. My 7 yr. old son also like Wii Playground (but I don't like it as much). He loves the Lego ones (Indiana Jones and Star Wars), but we don't own those yet. He has played them at friends' houses.
