Disney has got one for the kids, with Club Penguin Game Day. I never really played Club Penguin, but my kids play it often on their computer on the website and they seem to enjoy it very much. I may have to grab this game for them and let them have at it, maybe let them review it for you!

Moms and dads who want to share the fun and creativity of their child’s favorite, snow-covered virtual world can now get in on all the icy action with the launch of Club Penguin Game Day! for Wii.

“With Club Penguin Game Day!, we hope to give families new ways to connect, be active and have fun together.”

Club Penguin Game Day! features a collection of 12, all-new Wii exclusive games, including Puffle Paddle, Dance Off and Sumo Smash. Players create and customize a penguin, choose a team color and try to conquer challenges in each of the six zones on the island. The team that takes over the most territory wins.

The game includes innovative ways to connect with the virtual world, allowing players to transfer their penguins, achievements, coins, and exclusive unlockable items to their online accounts on clubpenguin.com. Players can also interact with familiar characters from the virtual world, including Rookie, Aunt Arctic, and Gary the Gadget Guy.

Another feature lets players transfer their customized penguins via their Wii Remote™ to a friend’s Wii for use in game play. Once back on the original console, high scores, coins and customization items earned will merge with the player’s profile.
