4.0 out of 5 stars Plug and Play Skateboarding... Wii substitute for 7 yr old, August 28, 2007

We ordered this toy for our 7yr old son who's recently become a skateboarding fanatic... he loves it. Once he figured out how to control the direction (he rides goofy) he began to really run around the courses. The graphics are ok for this age, but probably not enough for older kids. I'd recommend it as an "off the couch" video game that is fun for younger ones.

I purchased this for my 6 year old son, he loves it and isn't having a hard time with it at all... my teenager daughters who are confirmed gamers were given the task of showing their brother how to play this new purchase. I am happy to say I was out of the general area for most of the training session, the graphics are ok if you are 6 years old but I think anyone older who plays video games will be driven nuts by the graphics of this game. ( I only can write this because I was ready to bring out some cheese to go with the whines of my daughter's over the graphics!) If the need came to replace this game I would buy it again, just because my son really has fun with it.
