you can auto battle or turn base it and have 5 (gee I forget I haven't played in a while) characters to control.

I got my girl a Nintendo years ago and got hooked on it myself. First day we got it hubby and I were playing Mario Bros after she went to bed. We were really bad at the jumping and coordination needed. It was a weekday and we had to both go to work the next day but were so stuck into it, we just Had to 'finish the game'. So we do the first level thinking we accomplished that. HA! at 3:00 am. Then girl laughs at us when we tell her in the morning we beat the game.

Lolo and Kickle Cubicle were early games that we played a lot too on the Nintendo. Moving blocks around, strategie game. Lots of fun.

I coined a phrase around our house at that time: The road to hell is paved with good Nintendoes.
