You need C# for the programming logics. This is a must.
You need a little bit of Javascript to deal with the nuance of Web App problem. You may not need a whole lot of this, just enough to survive.
You need to know Xaml to be able to design your controls.
You need Asp.net or other server technologies unless your game is completely solo and don't interact with others. You don't necessarily need Asp.net... You could have gone with other technolology stacks
Last but not least, a solid education in computer science always helps.

You need to know C#, xaml and thats it. Technical part over. Now you need to know different algorithms like collision detection, shortest path etc. All depending on your game type. You also know how to make game loops and animate objects through both code and xaml. You can search and get many resource to start with, like bing / google. Also you must try Andy's blog. He is best in his own way.
