Gamers Hub has posted a Shaun White Road Trip Q&A feature. The questions are answered by Mario Galardo. He is the Script Writer for the game.

"So playing Xenoblade Chronicles has got me thinking about the other great games on the Wii that a lot of people probably haven’t played, but totally embody the Wii experience. With Xenoblade, the Last Story, and maybe Pandora’s Tower being the last real hurrah’s for the Wii in North America, I decided to compile a list of Wii games that people should be sure to play inorder to say that they experienced all the Wii could offer."
Apparently you didn't read the article, because Xenoblade IS on the list at the end of the honorable mentions (because it doesn't showcase the motion controls...), and Last Story is not out in the US yet, so...
Pretty good article. I hate when people complain about the lack of good Wii games; there is a ton of great stuff for the system even if you don't count first party stuff. I'll admit that the fighting and racing genres are quite barren on the system, but there's lots to enjoy in spite of that.
Anyway, I've never even heard of Sky Crawlers, so I'll have to check that out. I'll add A Boy and His Blob to the list of other great games at the bottom. The motion controls are unnecessary, but it's still fun and gorgeous, with some real puzzlers, later on.
if you want to see what great games are on Wii, try my page, all games tested :D and not Wii only

-Actually Last Story comes out in June, So close enough. I didn't see the Honorable Mention, so apologies for missing Xenoblade. I own a Wii, I bought the Black one the Day it came out, I have everything from Muramasa and the Demon Blade, to Goldeneye, to Madworld, Other M, M-Galaxy I&II, Smash Bros, Okami, even Fragile and Boy and His Blob, Super Paper Mario, DK:Returns, Resident Evil UC, etc.. -so the Wii has gotten plenty of attention over the years, from me anyways.
Shaun White appeared on KROQ this morning...with a little bit of news to spill.
Shaun White Snowboarding: Road Trip is a welcome addition to the Wii gaming family. The game is refreshingly fun and downright charming with its cartoony art style and spot on control system.
