One bad thing about business trips is that you might get to travel to a new city or country, but since you’re on the clock, you might not be able to leave the hotel or convention center. My mom just got back from a business trip to New York City, and she had never been there before. Luckily, when she wasn’t working, she was able to find time to see lots of sights: Times Square, the FAO Schwartz toy store, and more. But one store she went to that I’m most jealous about is the Nintendo World Store!
A greedy king has stolen all the crystals that give color to the world, and now all the hues in the land are fading. It’s up to Dora and Boots to find the crystals and give color back to the world. Based on the new Nick Jr. TV special, Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom for Wii is best described as your child’s first 2-D platform jumping video game adventure.
Kai-Lan and her animal friends love to play together on Nick Jr. Now you can join them for fun and games with Super Game Day on the Nintendo Wii.
Nick Jr. starlet Dora the Explorer has a new pet! Dora loves her new puppy Perrito. Now your child can help Dora feed, clean, and play with her canine pal. And maybe even help Perrito try and win a trophy at the big Puppy Club Fair in this Nintendo DS pet simulation game designed for very young children.
Sometime in the 21st century, a mysterious meteorite known as Shard Zero crashes on Earth, ending all civilization.

Play as three different races in this real-time strategy game as you battle for supremacy and discover the truth behind Shard Zero.
Ni Hao, Kai-Lan is a new cartoon TV show on Nick Jr. Little girl Kai-Lan and her animal friends learn about friendship, getting along, and helping others, as well as snippets of Chinese culture and language on the show.

The Backyardigans is a popular computer-animated TV show on Nick Jr. Pablo the penguin, Tyrone the moose, Uniqua the pink, uh…bug …thing, and the rest of the gang play outside in their backyards and use their imaginations to go on wild adventures. Along the way they’ll sing songs, do dances, and all before snack time. Now your child can join in on The Backyardigans’ adventures on the Nintendo DS.
For the past couple of years, families and friends have gathered around the TV and game systems to jam together with the Rock Band series of music video games.

Best of all, even the youngest rockers can enjoy LEGO Rock Band along with the big kids.
