IMO, PS games are less suitable for young children.Guess I would stop for the time being in getting the Wii. Now my DS playing the PS is already addicted. Once there is no homework will hook on a few hours on sat & sunday.
I guess would let him play during the school holidays would be appropraite. Notcie that the games of PS it is eitehr racing, fighting etc.
Personally I would prefer PS3 to Wii over the graphics; but chose wii for the more family oriented games. -

Care to share how you control the usage of wii on yr child? Every sat & sunday just allow them to play 45 minutes?[/quote]Oh, I have a star reward system at home for my boys. When they earn a star after fulfilling some requirements, they can exchange for some rewards, one of which is to exchange for 45min of Wii play. But interestingly, they hardly ask for Wii - they prefer to ask for rewards such as extending their bedtime by 30min on Fri/Sat nights, a nice bubble bath or outdoor play for 45min. -

News flash! News flash!We are considering to get the Wii after we (hubs and i) had fun with the
Band Hero jam at brother in law's place. Very fun and very good for
de-stressing.
Bad news....for those trying to win the Wii in the upcoming KSP auctions.
Good news....buds giving out KSP angpows! :evil:

Ya maybe should set a time frame. DS is a person where can't relax.Always want to make full use of the time either on study & play. Maybe I should plan more enrichment on sat & sun then can him out from console games!Titank, cannot allow free play. Must set time frame. No homework oso
can still have assessment right? For me, no homework doesn't always
mean zero revision for the day. My girls oso not addicted. Sometimes
i let them play oso they dowan. Ask me play with them. :love:
Not really only fighting and racing leh. Parents can decide what game
to load inside mah. You don't want them to play too much on racing or
fighting then don't have to load. My girls have adventure games like Mario
and there are also others like Princess and Winx Club for girls where they
go by stages or levels. Can save game also.
There are also those
puzzle games like Tetris (Block Game), Bubble Game or crossword puzzle,
chess, reversi, memory games, picture puzzle games, cooking games, etc.

I think nowadays, very few retailers sell the mod version in Singapore because it is illegal. And you can't play the original games on mod version, if I am not wrong.
i can confirm mod set can play all the original games. Infact there are still alot of retailers in hdb areas selling the mod version. -
