Classic environments with a twist.

A Franchise First: Simultaneous Multiplayer

Since the very first Super Mario Bros. game took the world by storm in the late 1980s gamers anxious to get into the action have patiently and impatiently waited their turn as the infamous 'player 2.' Those days are no more. In New Super Mario Bros. Wii players can now navigate the side-scrolling worlds alone as before or invite up to three others to join them at the same time, on the same level, at any point in the game for competitive and cooperative multiplayer fun. With the multiplayer mode, the newest installment of the most popular video game franchise is designed to bring yet another type of family entertainment into living rooms and engage groups of friends in fast-paced Super Mario Bros. fun.

Controller Choices Via the Wii Remote

In another nod to the series' Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) roots, the Wii Remote controller used with New Super Mario Bros. Wii is held sideways, allowing for easy, classic inputs using the D-pad to direct playable characters, the 1 button to jump and 2 button to spit out projectiles like snowballs and fireballs. In addition, players can access powerups with their choice of either the push of a button, or by shaking the Wii remote, again demonstrating the perfect merging of classic gameplay and modern game design which is New Super Mario Bros. Wii.

Wacky new powerups

Product Description

Your Own Transformers Experience – Staying true to the movie, Devastator is massive, standing well over a foot in height and dwarfing most other Transformers toys. He is a solid, heavy, and well-built toy. Pulling a lever on his chest causes his mouth (called the Vortex Grinder) to light up with bright, neon-green LED lights. The lever also triggers battle sounds and quotes taken straight from the movie.

Devastator isn't the most flexible toy around. Because of his size, he can be a bit cumbersome to play with. However, his elbows and knees are articulated, which makes him easier to position and balance. He also has realistic details, which gives him value as a collector's replica.Devastator consists of six smaller construction vehicles: the Constructicons.

These detailed vehicles are painted in earthy colors suited for their rough construction jobs. Together, the Constructicons form a complete construction team. There is a bulldozer, a dump truck, an excavator, a scoop loader, a mixer and a crawler crane. They prove to be very maneuverable on a hard surface, able to make hairpin turns easily. However, it should be noted that, unlike their film counterparts, these vehicles do not transform into robots individually.

Pulling a lever will cause Devastator's "Vortex Grinder" to open and light up.

An Enjoyable, Challenging Assembly

Devastator might be one of the biggest transformers around, but it's also one of the most difficult to put together. Parents should be aware that the Devastator requires some degree of finesse to assemble — and in some cases, strength. Some of the snapping parts are especially tricky to connect together, and prove difficult to pry apart. The toy is labeled as a Level 4 conversion, so younger children will have difficulty converting the toy by themselves. It took our tester (an experienced Transformer player) nearly 15 minutes to figure everything out. Still, putting the toy together should provide a constructive challenge for older kids.

Red LEDs can be turned on or off for maximum surveillance or for stealth.

Soft rubber ensures a secure and comfortable fit.

Darkness Is Your Ally…

With the EyeClops Night Vision goggles, your child can explore dark environments with advanced infrared technology. Set-up is easy. Simply insert five AA batteries into the battery pack at the back of the head-set, and slide the power switch to turn on the goggles. Once the screen display lights up inside of the right eye-piece, you can fit the goggles to your child's head by adjusting the soft rubber straps around top and sides.

EyeClops Night Vision goggles come equipped with a hinged, flip-up eye-piece that can be opened when the goggles are turned off, or closed when the goggles are in use. Your child can choose between the maximum surveillance mode which emits a barely-visible ring of red LEDs around the eyepiece so they can see up to 50 feet in absolute darkness, or go for the stealth mode to remain completely invisible while they explore the dark landscape immediately around them. A small switch on the side of the goggle head-set allows them to switch from a black-and-white to a green screen display.

Enhance Your Nighttime Stealth Operations

The futuristic design of the durable plastic head-piece adds to the fun of these exciting night vision goggles. Soft rubber molding around the goggles and adjustable straps across the top and sides makes them comfortable and easy to wear.

While the EyeClops Night Vision goggles provide a crisp, clear image of dark landscapes, they should always be used under adult supervision. Because the display screen is small and provides limited peripheral vision, these goggles should only be used in environments that are free of potential tripping hazards. As a nice safety feature, the goggles' handy flip-up eye-piece over the left eye provides immediate access to normal vision if your child becomes disoriented or needs to take a break from viewing through the small display screen located in the right eye-piece.

Durable and lightweight, these fun goggles work so well that you might just find yourself borrowing them from your child so you can have your turn enjoying some super stealth, covert nighttime missions of you own!

With fewer and fewer opportunities for children to engage in dramatic or pretend play, the quality of play experiences becomes particularly important. The current study investigates superhero play, a type of play that is more likely to be exhibited by boys than by girls and has the three main presentations of capture and rescue, submit or vanquish, and attack and flee. Parents and early childhood educators often have concerns about aggression and violence associated with the viewing of television programs that feature superhero characters. However, the research literature presents mixed findings on whether or not superhero play is causally linked to violence and aggression.

The current study was conducted with 58 four-year-old boys and examined the influence of superhero and non-superhero toys. The authors collected information on the frequency of superhero play, the themes and roles enacted, the boys' level of physical activity, and the frequency of aggression. The children were paired and given two sets of materials with which to engage in 8-minute play sessions with both superhero and non-superhero figures. The boys were enrolled in full-time child care; their mean age was 54.95 months (SD = 5.28) Pairs of boys were created through a peer nomination technique to create preferred playmate dyads. After a 5- minute warm-up session, the boys participated in two counterbalanced play sessions. Each play condition included 1 female and 10 male figurines. Parents of the children completed a demographic questionnaire that included information on television viewing habits. Data on the play sessions were coded in 15-second intervals across the four areas of the study.

Results revealed that the boys engaged in a variety of roles and themes of play. There were no observed incidents of verbal or physical aggression in either play condition, but the researchers observed a low frequency of play with aggressive play objects. With regard to the roles that the boys assumed, there were more character roles associated with the use of the superhero toys and more familial, occupational, exploration/negotiation, and lack of roles with non-superhero toys. The themes associated with the two play conditions indicated that a nurturing/caring theme and the domestic/housekeeping theme occurred more often in the non-superhero play. Greater physical activity also was found in the non-superhero play condition. Examination of correlates with television viewing indicated that boys who preferred superhero television programming were more likely in both play conditions to engage in attack/battling behaviors.

This study helps broaden the literature on the role of play with superheroes and non-superheroes. Research that focuses on exploration of play in natural settings with superheroes, as well as in home environments with and without exposure to television viewing, is also important to conduct.
