Hey guys, my class has collected money for a poor kid somewhere in our neighbourhood ( I believe he's 6, but no more info is given) and we have raised around 300 + more Dollars ( canadian ). I suggested we get the kid a big gift ( Nintendo Ds Lite ) as many of his friends may be getting them , and he may feel left out just getting little things. The question is, which Ds , and which game should we get the kid? I'm going shoppin with 3 of my classmates for all his gifts on Sunday, so I need some good ideas. I was thinking we get him the Nintendo Ds Zelda Bundle, so a game is included, but this may be a little out of his age group......... thanks!!!!

Yeah my teacher suggested a Mario game.... I was thinking New Super Mario Bros? But then again, limited edition Zelda looks alot better, maybe boosts the kids confidence level when showing his latest gadget to his friends ya know? Red does look good too...

Yeah, if he's 6, don't get him Zelda, get him something more simpler. While I didn't like the game myself, New Super Mario Bros. might be a nice game to get him or maybe Cooking Mama.

Id go for either mario kart/super mario bros or Pokemon. Strange Pokemon hasnt been said before, it holds a ton of simple and fun quests for 6 yrs old and it can be played 100hrs of hours, just like mario kart btw.

I personally enjoyed Kirby Squeak Squad a lot, and it is kinda simple. New Super Mario Bros is also a good choice. Mario Party DS might be fun for him if he is into party games.

Either a black or a white ds since the crimson one has darker screens for some reason.

For a 6 year old, spongebob or kirby would be great. You need to pick out something for his age group to keep him interested. I think Mario would be a bit too old for him. Anything Nickelodeon, Disney, or the like. Also Rattoie ( spelling? lol) is simple and fun and has a single card play download between 2 DS so he could play with his friends too.
