Bad camera anglesMar 09, 2010 I played this on the orginal console and wasn't a big fan of it then. I really don't like how the camera is set up, it makes me feel dizzy and want to vomit after playing for two minutes. So no, I've never beat the game. My hubby bought this for me, but had more fun with it than I did. Maybe if there was a way to fix the camera so it wasn't shifting all the time, it would be a better game. But I did enjoy the mini games.
Great, great gameMar 04, 2010 My 5 1/2 year old son is absolutely smitten with this game. Although his favorite is still the version for the Wii, this makes both short and long trips in the car a pleasure.
Great game play (yeah, he has let me go at it) and very close to the big-screen version.
Get it.

dislikeFeb 26, 2010 I am so disgusted with the purchase that I don't know what to say, first they were not ORIGINAL nintendo games, they were COPIES of the original, would not played in the nintendo dsi and were only good for 2 weeks. The only thing I did like was the refund policy because I got my money back right away.
Now I have to buy a second copy....Feb 25, 2010 My husband and I purchased this game along with the nintendo dsi for our daughter's 7th birthday. After needing a little bit of guidance from her daddy and how to get through a certain part of the game he has completely taken over lol, which is odd because my husband is SOOO NOT a gamer! But here I am, by request, to buy him his very own copy so he and my daughter will have their own and no one misses out on game play. By far the best ds game we have ever purchased!
