GameFocus writes: "I have some really bad news for nearly everyone in Canada, it's about to get really, really cold. Winter is fast approaching and while some enjoy this time of year, there are others who would rather just stay inside where it's nice and warm. For those who want to have some winter fun but don't feel like spending it in the cold, Ubisoft's latest entry in their Shaun White series of Snowboarding games, Shaun White Snowboarding: World Stage is now out for the Wii. This follow up will satisfy most snowboarding fans and its easy pick up and play nature is great for newcomers as well."
"Ubisoft has seemed to have hit a mine of potential with the Shaun White branding. This new series of games started out with a multi-platform snowboarding game that sold over a million copies on the Wii alone. Clearly, the sales numbers have prompted the developers to release a sequel to this successful game, entitled 'Shaun White Snowboarding: World Stage'. And plans are well under way to develop a skateboarding game based off the Olympian gold medalist. Now I personally thought the first game (SWS: Road Trip) was pretty fun, but I did have trouble really getting into it. How does the sequel compare?" -- Wiiloveit.com
