Overview

The opening shows the player characters preparing as an audience of Goombas cheer them on.

Players race down a hill on snowboards, turning the Wii Remote to steer, while avoiding obstacles like Mr. Blizzards. Players can get a boost off of a ramp by pressing A Button or B Button and turning. The player who reaches the end first wins, but if all four players end at once or nobody wins by five minutes, it is a tie.

Test for the Best features Alpine Assault as a single-player minigame, with the goal being to reach the end in the quickest time. These times are required to earn a certain point total:
