Finding Nemo

I just got this game a couple of weeks ago, and I love it. The graphics are really detailed and interesting. The first level you need to get to school, the second level you need to find your classmates, the third you need to catch up with Dory, and the forth you need to get to Bruce. (that's as far as I got) The only thing I don't like about it is the difficulty. Assuming that mostly younger kids would play this (except me), I think it is to hard for them. I'm 16 and I still haven't made it past level four. The other thing I don't like is how many things you need to do in each level. On level four, there are three different things you need to do before passing to the next level. You need to make it past the minefield, then you need to go through a sort of maze flipping switches to open doors. Then you need to avoid Bruce. Be warned; this game can get frustrating.

It's for kids!

I was a little nervous about buying this for my 5 year old son because of the reviews on here. But I'm glad I did it anyway. It is tailored just right for him! Yes the minefield was hard. When he would get frustrated he'd ask me to help him. Same with the Shark chase. But both levels I made him overcome it on his own and he did! It took about 30 minutes for him to pass the Bruce shark chase. I like that it was a challenge. Usually when we buy games based on cute commercial character's they end up boring, or too easy. My son owns 4 games for his gameboy and this is the one his friends like to play when they borrow it.

Great but challenging...

In the game you play as two different characters; nemo and marlin. You have to get past many different obstacles in each level, and passwords are given each time a level is passed, if you want to be able to go back to that same level. I found that the game had great graphics, and the music was neat, but it was a little hard for younger children. You see, my sister got this game, she's seven, and could only get past the first two levels. The rest I had to beat if she wanted to play them.

Pros:
-Great Graphics, very detailed and clear
-Great Sound
-Challenging; you won't beat the game the day after you get it.

Cons:
-Can be too hard for children around 7 and under, otherwise it is a good difficulty level
-Some levels get a bit frustrating, you have to wonder around trying to finish
-The levels often make you do the same thing over and over, can get a bit dull

Overall it is a great game if you are older and up to the challenge, but definetly do not buy for younger children, it will be way to hard. Even I had troubles with some of the parts, and I'm older.

A cool game!!!

I really liked the game i got it just for fun. I like the "Drop Off" the best because it is fun to find Nemo's classmates. I think the graphic's are great and the music is really soothing. Even my mom and older sister liked it. "Finding Nemo" is not that hard and is perfect for childeran. The game is great for taking your mind off all the bad stuff happening today. In addition to playing the game i think you should watch the movie.

FINDING NEMO IS A COOL GAME

I think Finding Nemo is a cool game! It has like 2 parts to each level! It's fun! I'm on the last level. The only thing that I don't like about it, is that when I start playing it, I get a headache! You will probably NOT have the same problem though. That's the only reason why I rated it 4 stars.

I had $40 in my wallet, and wanted to buy this game. So, I read the reviews. At that time, the reviews were all saying: This is too easy, or this is too hard, I don't like this game, and all that stuff. I was afraid I wasn't going to like it! But you know, you don't have to believe other people's reviews, because it's only their OPINION! Everyone is different.

I got pacman games for Christmas, and I loved them. I thought that, "If I like PACMAN, which is just a little ball eating little dots, I'll LOVE Finding Nemo!" Ended up, I got it the NEXT DAY! And I didn't even click on express shipping! I loved it! It's a little easy, and a little hard. OVERALL, it is a great game. This is only my opinion of course, but I hope this review was helpful.

Great game!

My son received this game for his fifth birthday. It is a great game. He has lots of fun playing it. You alternate between being Nemo and Marlin. Some of the levels are a little too hard for him and he needs some help to get past them, but overall I think it is a great game and not too hard, even for my young son. I also enjoy playing it, so it is great for multiple players in the household!

No Save Feature

Would be a great game, if only it had a save feature.
I purchased it cuz I'm really into a mini-game phase, where I just wanna play little time wasters at random. This package has the games, but you have to fight to get to them. If you're in the mood to play breakout with the turtles then you have to spend 30 min earning your way to that point every time. By then you may be tired of playing anyway.

Anywho.. individual games are good (some for adults, some mostly just for younger kids), but the lack of a save feature is very frustrating.

I Love The Finding Nemo

i Love This GameBoy Game. I just Got Mine and it is the ultimate best game out there. I mean I just love this game. It isn't to hard and it isn't to easy. I am a 16 year old and this is one of the best games out there.

A great game for the Nemo Fan in your life.

This game is great for kids and Nemo fans of all ages. Essentially this is a well rounded collection of mini games. The games rage from Dance Dance revolution style rhythm games to classic Arcade game themes all set within a family friendly Nemo underwater playground. There are about 20 games in all and the single player mode connects the action together with a sort of "meanwhile..." narrative outlining what the tank gang did after they escaped from the dentists office. All the great characters are back. If you have a daughter or son who loves Nemo then you really owe it to them to pick up this excellent game today.

Would have been a 5 star, but......

Great game and a lot of fun! But control on some of the levels (especially the Bruce the shark chase level) is VERY difficult!! Plus, the life cycle is not consistent. On some levels, your energy level gradually drops with each "hit" until your man dies. On other levels, one hit kills you immediately, so you never get a chance to "feel out" the level. Also, on some levels (most notably the submarine) you wander aimlessly trying to find your way out, and it is impossible to figer out which lock opens the many doors. Some locks seem to open several doors, so there is a lot of back tracking!

I guess the point is to make it more challenging, but, come on, it's a Disney game!

Otherwise, great game. Really follows along with the movie!
