Product Description

If you've ever wanted to be Barbie, this is your chance to make your dream a reality! Barbie for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) is a funny platformer. It has some features you would expect to see in a Barbie game, and some features that just seem bizarre. You play as Barbie in the midst of her dreams, which are incredibly odd... Barbie must make her way through some intense platforming with the help of some animal friends. Commanding animals will be essential to get past some of the more difficult platforming and bosses. If you've ever wondered what happens in Barbie's dreams, now you can know for sure.

To be quick, the graphics were pretty good, especially for the cutscene pictures.

The sounds and music were just a mess.

It took me forever to figure out what exactly I was supposed to do. Apparently, you are supposed to drop beanbags or whatever they could be on animals to make them move. The stages were incredibly boring and had very repetitive backgrounds and were pretty lame in design.

The object is to just keep walking right. There are 3 full levels of gameplay, but it seemed like 5. You play through Barbie's dreams that she explains before she falls asleep. Everything moves very slowly and Barbie is so tall, she gets hit by everything. After a while, I switched to Gamegenie and didn't even feel bad cheating. This is one of those games that may have actually been designed for a little girl and from that perspective, I guess it's OK. Every girl I have ever showed this game to could not believe that this was even made.

The bottom-line, I felt like I completely wasted my time by playing this. But, I am one game closer to having every NES game available.

As a child I loved this game. This is mostly for younger children. It is an adventure game. It's about Barbie and her adventures through a toy store. All I can remember is the beach balls that would kill me. Great memories. Your little kid will love it.

1.0 out of 5 stars ~The Gamer's Disapointment~, March 17, 2002

This game is really bad and has terrible graphics. While the adventure half of the game isn't that bad, the rest is ALL downhill............Go play THE SIMS if you want a good game!
