4.0 out of 5 stars Fun for Little Leaugers, January 15, 2007

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars

My six-year-old really likes this game! He can chose which team he wants to be as well as the skill level of the game. I haven't tried it yet, but you can use the connecting cable to another Game Boy to play against someone else. The only trouble is that when I tried it with another game, you had to have the game cartridge in both games. In other words, if you have two boys who want to play together, you have to buy it twice. But the graphics are good and my son really enjoys playing solo.

My Son received this for his 6th birthday and hasnt stopped playing it. He really had lost interest in his gameboy for awhile, but this has rejuvenated his interest! Getting him to put it down for bed always evokes a "Please, just 5 more minutes!"

The Backyard Sports Baseball 2007 game is a big hit with our seven year old son. He has played this game almost daily since receiving it at Christmas. Backyard Sports Baseball scores a double hit at our house, one for him and one for me, because 'homework done equals game time'! Now, that's what I call a win for the home team!
