Is 5 too young to get a video game system for Christmas? 

I am planning to give him a GBA and one or two "kiddie" games.

I think 5 is a fine age. My cousien was 5 when he got his gba and he played it just fine. It all depends on what games you get.

Right now I just have Cartoon Network Speedway, and I am considering giving him Madden but most likely not. What would y'all reccomend?
