Great for All Ages:
I purchased my 12 year old daughter a DS for Christmas and wanted to purchase a game that would "grow" with her. She is entering an awkward age, between being a child and being a teenager. As soon as her 14 year old brother found out she had the game, he could be found sneeking into her room and "testing" it for her. My young nephew (who is 6), also got this game for his DS and loves it. So if your looking to "invest" because these can be pricey, this is the game for you.
Grandma's gift to Hunter:
This was a gift to a grandson who is five. All I know is I didn't see much of him the rest of Christmas day. Even he and his mother sat for an hour playing the game. It's all way over my head, and I would have rather seen them outside making a snow man, but I'm just the grandma.
New Super Mario Brothers:
This was a gift for my 10 year old niece. She loved it and has hardly put it down since Christmas. When she does finally relinguish it, her 15 year old brother quickly snags it!
First DS Game:
New Super Mario Bros. was the first ds game that I played. It is full of fun and excitment. You get to play super fun levels and do all kinds of neat and enjoyable things. I would totally recommend this fun game to anyone who is a fan of Mario.
