At number three on the list is Super Mario Galaxy 2 which is set to release in 2010, which is why its last on the list, but already its in the top 20 bestselling Wii games. And, with the popularity of its predecessor, Super Mario Galaxy 2 is sure to be a hit.

Coming in at number two in the list is Mario and Sonic at the Winter Olympic Games set in Vancouver for the 2010 Winter Olympics. Mario and the gang get together to ski, snowboard, skate, and even have a snowball fight at the Winter Olympics. This game is balance board compatible and accommodates up to 4 players.

The number one Mario game for the Wii for 2009 is New Super Mario Bros. This is the Mario game we all grew up playing. Jumping, flying, and swimming your way through a colorful world in the pursuit of coins and saving the Princess, New Super Mario Bros is a blast from the past! It’s fun at every turn and great for all ages.

This video showcases the top 5 Wii Mario games for the holiday season 2009. Some of these games are old standbys that we’ve loved for a year or more, while others are newly released in November and December and are still in preorder mode. If you’re interested in getting any of these new games for Christmas, you’ll want to make sure you take advantage of the pre-order availability because they frequently sell out and can’t be found for the rest of the holiday season.

The #1 Mario game of the season is the perfect gift for the adults too! They grew up playing this game on their Super Nintendo back in the 80s, and is now available for the Wii!
