Thread: What handheld game to get my 6 year old?

There's Leapster 2, Leapster Explorer, DSi xl, DSi Lite (would buy educational games for these last two), VTech MobiGo, and the Fisher Price ixl.

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH. LOL. We got a Wii this year for him and my almost 3 year old. I dont want to overdo the "gaming," but then again I want my 6 year old to have something for on the go too.

Id suggest the Nintendo DS. There are plenty of education games on that plat form, great for any ages!

u should give him a psp and get him some appropritate game like nba 2011

You should get the one of the DS systems.Their aren't as many educational games as the Leapster,Explorer or any of the others but when he grows out of those games the ds will be able to to pick up where the others left off.Oh he should have fun playing with the camera too.I would also suggest getting the DSi xl over DSi because it will be brighter and easier to read the words.

I would get them a nintendo DS light, DSi, or DSi XL to share.
