    Help with Wii & 360 Games for Kids

    I would like to buy a couple of games for my kids for the Wii and the 360 but I am not sure what to buy. My kids are 9 and 5 and have both played games since they were old enough to hold a controller. I find most 360 games to be a bit mature and I haven't played enough Wii games to know what to...

    Nintendo Compilation Discs

    With the Zelda disc now coming with Gamecubes....I wish Nintendo would release compilation discs of their titles. I would so love to buy a disc of all the Marios, all the Zeldas, Metroids, Mario Karts etc... Price them at $20 and they'd have so many good retro discs.
