Not long now before the Wii hits the shops and i was wondering what would be killer apps for this console, a Star Wars gaming using a Lightsabre controller would be awesome but what would be your dream Wii game ?

I've said it on many different sites and I will now say it here. The best Wii game ever would be an online multi player pool game. It can be included in Wii sports.

Any online FPS thats easy to use and easy to play like Counter Strike just with loooots of guns, Well thats for FPSs cause 1 game cant rule every category. It woulda been so cool to have an oblivion game on the Wii, but thinkin about it, thats what LOZ:TP is for

Wow, actually that could work great.

e.g. (for right-handers):

Point the wiimote (cue tip) with your left hand and take the shot holding the nunchuck (butt) withyour right hand. Just like real snooker/pool.

The nunchuck does have motion sensitivity, which would be ideal for the swinging-back-and-forth arm-motion when lining up a shot.

and the infa-red of the wiimote will allow a precise aim.

If they did it right, with really accurate cue response. ...And most importantly, let the shot-motion hand (right-hand) fine tune the aim (every snooker/pool videogame has fallen flat here, the aim is always unchangable after shot selection and the cue swing only ever determines power).

...It could be great.

Yep a snooker or pool game. I agree.

[EDIT]
In fact... The more I think about this the better it seems.

It could be the first game to impliment a real mis-cue system. Some crappy snooker games have implemented random mis-cues with varying probability depending on the shot your going for. < Very crappy and frustrating system.

This could be the first snooker game to base a mis-cue on the steadyness and smoothness of your stroke. e.g: Jolt to the left or right with the cue-butt and you will miss-cue.

and also, difficulty could be set by making the sensitivity more or less forgiving. That way, instead of making your opponent harder or easier, you will be increasing/decreasing your own capability. Just like in wii tennis, where you can play with a little 'flick' instead of swinging about like a tennis pro.

Even non-snooker players could rack up huge breaks on the easiest (most forgiving) difficulty setting, instead of the snooker game norm of just being given a crap opponent and playing the scrappiest game of snooker you've ever seen.

This one factor would in itself make this the best snooker game ever. The "crappy opponent" example above, has always made snooker games completely unenjoyable for all except experts of the games.
