Im thinking of getting my son a early birthday/xmas present, as i stubbled across a gaming console that caught my eye,ive been around looking at prices and they are roughly the same as what i have seen on this item,but even if it does go up more,it is for charity so that dosent really bother me.Just wanting to know if any of you mothers have brought this gaming console for your children,and if you think its worth getting as im really clueless and with no man around its very hard.thanks.

It depends on how old your son is.

I am confused, link went to Wiggles...not a gaming console. Also how old is your son, and how is the proceeds going to charity?

Yeah, I didn't want my son getting it for that same reason, they talked me into letting him get it (his brothers who didn't want to fork out the money, but happy for him to do it so THEY could play with it too) There are straps for the controlers that you are to put on your wrist so they don't go flying when you are playing...trust me...I don't play without the wrist band on...I'm too Clumsy!!
