The Weak Link

I purchased a Wii some while back for the mutual amusement of my 13 y/o daughter. As an >50er, I'm aware that playing video games is good for the aging soul. It is supposed to sharpen hand-eye coordination, reaction time, and all sorts of other good stuff.
Just recently I learned that you can connect to the internets with the thing, download games, and play with folks around the globe. I downloaded "Bomberman Blast" and have been trying to learn the game. So is my daughter, btw.
The problem is that I'm getting waxed pwned and punked by 13 y/o's around the world. My reactions just aren't sharp enough. It sucks. My daughter, whose first language is Russian, is also learning some unfortunate English expressions. That's not good. She can pick up that stuff on TV.
So, can any Foosters recommend good games on Wii that you can download and play with others on the internets without needing the reaction time of Maverick and the time invested of a chess Grand Master?
