I can get you a list of the games she uses if you'd like. Maybe best if you contact me off list. Are you set on the Wii? I ask because Wii games tend to be simpler action based games with a limited plot in any at all. The games that are more plot driven and therefore with more language tend to be on the other consoles (Xbox and PS3) or on the PC.

I am looking to see if the Wii games have been used in foreign language and culture instruction in some manner. Has anyone used the Wii environment in your instruction?
