don't think that any of them will be worth buying, but we'll see
oh man why so much kiddy crap on the ds? at least my 2 year old will have games if I get a ds lite and hand down my DS which she wants to play all day already. ;)
yeahx: oh man why so much kiddy crap on the psp/ps2/xbox/gc/gbc/every other console in existance. It's clear that these games are for kids - and it's what they buy. So they're not just aiming for the older market y'know, since a big chunk of people that own a games console are kids. And want these games. My verdict: Interesting, at least it shows support for the Revolution.
I love SpongeBob... :/
It'd be nice if they made a good Avatar game, but I doubt it...
