Perfect for young gamers

I bought the Cybertron for my 12 year old and he loves it.  We have a 3 year old quad core desktop that really wasn't meant for gaming and I needed to get his games off of it anyway.  We were researching gaming computers and came across another brand first, but saw the great reviews on this PC and decided to go for it along with a 24" ASUS Full HD monitor that also received good reviews.  My son is not a hard core gamer, but enjoys playing Minecraft and several different games on Steam.  From what I have seen, the graphics are fantastic and there doesn't appear to be any lag time with any of the games.  The customer service also seems to be good, but hopefully I won't ever have to call them with a problem.  Great computer at a very decent price.

My son loves this video game.  It's perfect for younger kids and parents to play with them!  Older kids probably wouldn't like this game so much.  But it's perfect for the younger ones.

One of my favorite older gaming devises. Its extremely simple in that it doesnt contain a lot of the complicated high tech functions but still is a blast to play. Also has an extremely high long lasting battery and is pretty indestructible. Perfect if your looking for a first time gaming devise for a child.

My 4 year old got this for Christmas and LOVES it. He easily plays all the games without constantly having to ask for adult help. We also have the "Smart Kids" which has boy and girl games. He prefers this one.

Perfect game for a seven year old that is beginning to play and like the sport. It's pared down enough for a young kid to understand, but entertaining enough for an adult to play with them

Bought this for my niece since it reminded me of a game I had as a young tween.  She loves it and it's the perfect game for a sleepover.  Glad I purchased this!

Great set for my youngster to do his gaming. Easy to install. Only down side is you have to hit the "pause" key to light up the board and it doesn't stay. Not easy in a dark room.

I bought this for my 5yr old son and it works amazingly. He can download all the games he enjoys and never has any connection issues!

Good Morning! My 6 year old son LOVE his new Leap Pad!  He knew how to play games on an Ipad since 2 years ago, so this was easy for him to handle.  He got a Leapster (The smaller hand-held device) last year and to our surprise, his Leapster games fit into his Leap Pad as well!  (Although he does have to level up with the Leap Pad vs. the Leapster, but its all great practice on his numbers/math and reading).  I wanted him to have a Leapster, so he can do something educational instead of just playing mindless video games where he's running, jumping and blowing things up.  Now he gets to race as Lighting Mc Queen and add, measure, learn fractions and graphs!  I think this system is a GREAT alternative to a D.S./other gaming systems that's don't TEACH your child anything!

This Mommy LOVES this product and I don't mind my school aged son playing this type of video game.

We a sneaky child who can maneuver thru the Internet quickly. He's 5. This is perfect. Hes playing games that serve a purpose in a controlled environment and limit the "play" game time. It's challenging him. It's great!!!

I wanted to find a toy that would excite our son enough to lure him away from spending so much time on video games, and this does the trick!  He's played with this more than any other toy he received this year, and he loves to show his creations to his friends.

He was especially proud of the a.m. radio that we worked on together.  The more than 300 projects should keep us busy for some time, though several are very similar and require making few changes.

Some of his favorites have been the lie detector, the a.m. radio, a light detector, and a water detector.

The pieces easily snap together and apart, but because there are some exposed transistor parts and light bulb sockets that could be broken off if careless, it is important to caution the user to be careful.

The nature of this toy and its projects easily lends itself towards parent/child participation (one can read the instructions while the other helps locate the needed part, and both can work together to find where it goes on the circuit board).  Still, I'd say it is easy enough for a child from 9 - 12 years old to go it alone with just minimal supervision.

Once the child learns how different circuits work there are many possibilities for creating original projects of their own.

Each part has its place on the storage tray, which helps keep the toy organized and protected from damage.

The manufacturer also offers other kits/manuals that can help expand the 300 project kit to make over 500 or more projects.

My grandson is in first grade and is interested in video games but has difficulty with the controller. He is also reluctant to engage in reading activities. With this game the controller is used in the standard button only moves (no tilt action required) and the reading is engaging so he loves playing! His younger sister is also enjoying the game.

I am not a gamer, but we bought this for my 8 yr old son.  He originally played Super Smash Bros Brawl on the Nintendo 64 and when we got him a wii, we had to buy the game for it too.  He plays it so much, we've had to replace it about 4 times because with kids switching out games unfortunately they do get scratched.  Nothing to do with the quality of this game, it's par for the course with kids.  The point is, I think if you have a kid who likes video games, and Mario type games, you can't go wrong with this one!

Bought for my Grandson who plays Wii Mario Brothers games a lot. The great thing about the Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi I got is that he leaves the TV behind and runs all over the house (upstairs and down) making up his own adventures. They have become his BIFF (Best Imaginary Friends Forever).

They are small, but not too small; the price was definitely right.<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Nintendo-Luigi/dp/B0033BE9NC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Nintendo Luigi</a>&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Nintendo-Yoshi/dp/B00307406A/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Nintendo Yoshi</a>

My daughter loves it! Not for serious gamers.

Product arrived very quickly and exactly as advertised.  My 9yo son plays it constantly, so if you're looking for what a young boy or girl would want to keep them busy, can't go wrong with this item.  The games are a bit pricey ($20-40).

I have young grandchildren who love to play video games, but most of the ones I could find were for older children. I found this one and purchased it and they love it. They are ages 3 and 4. I expeciallly like it that is a learning tool, and not just a game.
