Toys and Games Reviews of PokemonT Champion Island DVD Board GameCustomer Review: Would not recommend this toy to anyone Summary: 2 StarsBeing a grownup and having a 6yr old son made me learn things I never wanted to know to begin with - Pokemon stuff :). So I bought this game hoping it would be a good game to play with him.
1) As with pretty much all pokemon related things, this toy has no education value whatsoever.
2) The DVD that guides you through the game is pretty much endless, but you can't turn off the DVD and come back to the same point - you have to start from scratch and the DVD loses track of all the pokemons that you've acquired. This is very frustrating, but since nobody has 4 hours at a time, it would have been nice to be able to pick up where you've left off. This does not seem to be an option, unless you 'pause' the DVD player until you get back to the game (hours or days later).
3) The only pro of this game is that you get to spend time with your child and playing this game is still better than them watching pokemon (or other similar pointless) cartoons by themselves. Other than this, I really don't see any value to this game.
Customer Review: So much fun I bought 2! Summary: 5 StarsI originally bought this game for my son's friend's birthday (8 years old)and the boys played it non stop for 5 hours before we forced them to go to bed and get some sleep. The next morning they again were begging to play it. Exciting for the kids but not too loud or noisy for the adults. You need a DVD player with a remote to play the game.
Customer Review: My Son LOVES it - I find it boring... Summary: 4 StarsMy son, 6 years old, is a HUGE Pokemon fanatic. He collects the cards, has a pokedex, watches the cartoons on TV, etc. He received this game for Christmas, and absolutely LOVES it. My husband and I played it with him and he was literally dancing around the room! My husband and I are not Pokemon fanatics, and we feel that the game is slow and boring. However, it is made for children, and since my 6 year old thinks that it is the best game ever, I would give it 5 stars. But, we had some trouble with the DVD. 3 times, when we selected the "Team Rocket" selection, the game quit and we had to start over. We haven't played it since then, so I don't know if this problem will continue. For this reason I am giving it only 4 stars.
Customer Review: Pizza & Pokemon Summary: 5 StarsToday I had a pokemon and pizza party. 3 of my frends came over for pizza and then we played the Pokemon(tm) Champion Island DVD Board Game. We had a lot of fun playing the game. I am 8 years old and my friends are 6,8,9 years old. This game really puts Pokemon knowledge to good use. My favorite thing is to watch the Pokemon battle in academies. There are 3 academies ; the academy types are Fire,Water,and Grass. If you have it good luck in your quest to beat all 3.
Customer Review: Great buy for Pokemon lovers! Summary: 5 StarsMy son (9) loves Pokemon and this was a great buy for him! If you do not know a lot about Pokemon this game will not be that easy, but it is still fun. My son knows a lot about this game so the trivia in it is a bit easier, but his friend who did not know a lot of the answers still liked playing it too.
The game is very interactive and your child learns trivia and reading while playing. My son likes the game so much, he sometimes plays it alone.
I highly recommend this game if your child likes Pokemon!
