I bought this for my 4 1/2 year old for Christmas. He loves it! The graphics are good nintendo quality (for kids) and the characters are recognizable from their adult faces. He loves it..Little Lebron, Little Vince, and Little Dirk are dead on. It's fun and easy for little ones. If you are looking for a challenge then stick with NBA live, but for little gamers this is a lot of fun. I gave it four stars because there is not much of a defensive component.

This was a Christmas present for my grandson. It is enough to say that he loved the game, and had to be told to put the DS away for a while.

The game was a gift for my grandson. The seller expedited the shipping and got it to me before my grandson's birthday. The seller provided all the original packaging as he stated and my grandson is having hours of fun playing this game. It works and functions like new.
