Nintendo DS Lite Is Your Outdated Handheld Deal of the Day [Dealzmodo]

So you know how you tell your grandmother that you want Modern Warfare 3 the video game, but she buys you this stupid DVD set? And then you say you want Transformers 3 on DVD but she gets you Transmorphers? Some people just cannot keep up with the times. I mean, perhaps it is your fault; you should have been more specific. If you want a Nintendo 3DS, make sure you write it down with a pen and pad (DO NOT TYPE) and use easily understandable terms that the elderly can make out like: "IT'S THE NEW-FANGLED 3D THING-A-MAJIG THAT PLAYS THEM GAMES KIDS PLAY THESE DAYS." Remember, write big! Handwriting is important here. Maybe even mention the price—$170. That way, grandma can't confuse an expensive but brand new 3DS with this cheap and old $45 DS Lite. If you still get a DS Lite, well your family just hates you. Can't help you there. More »

Crayola Trace & Draw Turns iPad Into a Sheet of Paper

There are a few things I know about kids. One is that they never stop screaming or wanting something. The other is that they press really, really hard on my iPad screen, which is why I no longer let them near it. If you are a breeder, however, and can no longer endure little Johnny’s wheedling [...]

Let it Slide is an engaging, difficult puzzle game

letitslide
I have a thing for physics games, and I've been known to post the occasional platformer or action game here and there. But Let it Slide is one of the brainiest games I've posted to date.

The idea is very simple, and far from original: You get a board with pieces arranged in a particular pattern; you have to slide those around until you get the special piece into its target location.

It's not even about finding out where the target location is - you can just hover over "dim tiles" and instantly see where you're supposed to bring the special piece. But getting it there is a whole different story.

There are five tutorial levels, which I strongly recommend you do. Then there are twenty "beginner" levels, but that's really a misnomer. If those are the beginner levels, I don't want to know what the intermediate and advanced levels look like!

Every time you finish a level you get a score based on how many clicks it took you - each level has a "par" (the minimum number of clicks it could be completed in), and your performance is compared to that gold standard. Because it's such a brainy game, getting it right is quite satisfying. I was downright proud of myself when I managed to finish a few levels. All in all, quite recommended, especially if you've got a few minutes of quiet. It might actually help you focus better later on.

Burrito Bison is a simple game for gummy bear lovers

burritobison
Burrito Bison is a pretty simple game, but if you're into gummy bears you might find it addictive.

As you may have guessed from the name, you're a bison (not a burrito, though). In the course of your day-to-day grocery shopping, you're abducted into a bag of gummy bears, and must now fend for yourself.

At the beginning of each round you launch yourself onto the marching gummy (gummi?) bears, while you're being watched by a huge crowd of even more gummy bears. Your goal is to keep bouncing on the bears and earn more and more money while you do it. Every time you hit a gummy bear, you lose some momentum. If you hit the floor, you basically lose all of it.

But don't give up just yet! You have an emergency thrust which you can use to gain some momentum and keep bouncing on those bears. This extra thrust gets refilled as you hit more bears.

There are also special gummy bears that give you extra thrust or extra money. The money comes in handy at the end of each round, when you can shop for cool stuff to make your bison even more effective against those gummy bears.

It's a fun and colorful game that kept my interest for quite some time, and almost sent me running to the closest store to get some gummy bears!
