Lion King

(Review From Amazon)
General Comments:
My three year old grandson loves playing this game.
When he gets the right answer, he lets everyone know.
When its wrong, he'll tell you and he will do it again
until he gets it right. He doesn't want any help from
anyone. He'll tell you, "I'll do it".
This is a good learning game for preschool children
especially with characters that they are familiar with.

Fun, but NOT a good choice for child's first game!

(Review From Amazon)
General Comments:
My son is 4.5 and received the Lion King Smartridge for Christmas this year with the Vsmile system. This is his first experience with a video game system. I do not recommend Lion King as a first game even though it is labeled 3-5 years. This is not an accurate label. In Lion King the child must be able to simultaneously control the joystick and enter button to make Simba jump over water and land successfully. He also needs to start from a precise point to avoid landing in the water. This is my son's first experience with a video game system and he has trouble with controlling and coordinating this movement. He also received the Elmo's World (3-5 yrs) and Dora's Fix-it Adventure (4-6 yrs) games. These games are both much easier and more forgiving than Lion King. Dora & Elmo never die, there aren't any lives, and when they need to jump over something the child only needs to push the enter button. For a child inexperienced with video games and a low tolerance for frustration, I would not start with this game. The concepts are easy...but the controls are too challenging. My son loves Lion King so I'm sure eventually he will love this game, but right now Elmo and Dora are much easier for him to control.
