Shaun the Sheep (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo DS
from: D3 Publisher

September 26, 2008
The idea/concept is great, the graphic are good, Shaun moves around very easily.

I'm not a great games fan at the best of times and bought this for my son, he's already become very bored with it as the instructions are pretty minimal - find the sheep, but there's no hint or clues and when you've rummaged in every bush - all you ever get is either a pair of old teeth, a horn or tin can - fought the pigs 1,000,000 times the games becomes monotonous, boring and quickly consigned to the bottom of the game pile.

Maybe it's just me, but I wish I'd saved my money!

Nintendo DS Lite Handheld Console (White)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo DS
from: Nintendo

June 23, 2006
This superbly designed console is great. One of the best features is the four adjustable brightnesses. I play on the third brightest setting which for me is really ample and the battery seems to last forever. Charging only takes a couple of hours too, and the power indicator lights are so stylish. The durable touch screen works well, the sound is good, and online wifi games are tremendous fun judging by the one I'm playing (Animal Crossing: Wild World - so addictive, especially if you play online with others - there's a varied demographic to play with too - the DS seems to appeal to all ages.)
The white DS doesn't show up fingerprints and stays clean. It's really satisfying to insert the stylus into it's hole.
I also own Touch Golf ... Read More:

Nintendogs Labrador Retriever & Friends (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo DS
from: Nintendo

October 07, 2005
I got this game for christmas with my ds. My dad chose it and I think it was a great choice. You get to buy a puppy and train it lots of tricks. When you train your puppy's name it can be hard but you'll get through it. Its fun going on walks but don't let your puppy eat rubbish! I love going in contests. There are three different types. You also get to wash, groom, and play with your puppy. Collecting supplies is fun. In accseseries I even got a lions mane and santas hat! You get to meet your friends dogs and give them presents. I say anyone could like this game so please buy it! Its worth the money.

Nintendo DS Lite Handheld Console (Silver)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo DS
from: Nintendo

October 12, 2007
We owned an original Nintendo DS for two years - we bought it right when it released in December 2004. When I first saw the DS Lite at E3 in 2006, I was thrilled. The game great handheld unit design - but lighter! Brighter! Tuned! It really showed that Nintendo had been paying attention to customer feedback during those two years, and had tweaked its unit to be even better than before.

First, the weight. We always *loved* the design of the DS, with its folding top. As PSP owners, I can't tell you how many time that poor PSP screen gets dinged or scratched. We had to buy extra carrying cases for our PSP and get screen protectors. In comparison, the DS's clamshell design means the screen is perfectly protected when you tote it around in your pocket ...

Spore Creatures (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo DS
from: Electronic Arts

September 05, 2008
First of all, I've played both "Spore" for PC, and "Spore Creatures" for DS. Spore Creatures wins hands down. Without even taking into account the whole DRM thing, this is much more enjoyable.
It plays similar to any RPG - complete goals, retain health, improve yourself through collecting and improving - but has quite a nice story to go with it, your creature's friend has been kidnapped by an alien and you need to find him. The animations are pretty cute, there are buyable cheats through game points, and it's generally good, clean fun. Anyone from the age of 8 should get on with this just fine, although the fighting isn't explained very well to begin with.
The playtime is also fairly long as well, I've spent more time on this than Spore for PC and I've pretty ... Read More:

Professor Kageyama's Maths Training (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Nintendo DS
from: Nintendo

February 08, 2008
I bought this game today as maths is a weak point and I've really enjoyed the Brain Training games. This game is everything I expected it to be but after 10 minutes I'm suffering with bad motion sickness! The background is orange with little boxes that move horizontally from left to right on both screens and all the exercises have this behind so there is no escape!!

There are options to turn the annoying music and sound effects off but all you have to do to stop that is turn the volume down! You'd of thought they would have an option to stop the annoying background moving!

It's a shame because I may have to get rid of this game before my subconscious associates sickness with maths!!!

Conclusion: If you want basic maths training ... Read More:

Pokémon Diamond (Nintendo DS)

Im not a massive fan of pokemon games, i play them when im in the car when i go on holiday, they pass the time. But i bought this game, simply for the reason that i was bored of my ds games. And well .. i loved it. The 3D is so much better, your pokemon on your poketec actually look like pokemon, and have you seen the houses ? they look so small and pokemon like :L the story is so similar to the ruby and sapphire version, all evil forces trying to change the world and stuff, it's all good fun. I myself never played on it often, mostly because im more into shooting and racing games than having a small cute yellow thing bobbing on the screen thats apparently called itself Pikachu, but thats not the point. It's an incredibly fun game, even if your not a huge fan. It's a lot more straight ... Read More:
