Mattel Classic Basketball Game Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I received this game as a present from my wife. However, after a few games, one of the buttons stopped responding, making the game difficult to play. It will be returned to Amazon for an exchange.
One note with the game, the make-it-you-take-it style for 24 seconds is odd, but the addition of the 3-point shot is awesome! The game is as good as I remember especially on PRO2. When quiet time is necessary, the sound ON/OFF is terrific. I gave it four stars because the durability seems weak (fifteen minutes of Christmas morning action results in bad button) and the instructions are written poorly.
Just a followup, Amazon shipped me a new game even before I had a chance to send the defective one back. Kudos to the Amazon customer service staff for a job well done! I'd give the game five stars, but cannot seem to figure out how to change the rating.

Who needs 3D graphics? This game proves that simple electronics of the 1970s are still a ton of fun. The good people at Mattel brought this basketball classic back without changing a thing! OK, they changed one thing: now you can get a three-pointer. But the game unit, graphics and game play are just as they were back when Larry Bird and Dr. J were running giant afros up and down the court. Pick it up and find out if your thumbs are still in shape! Requires 2 AA batteries, which are included. For 1 player.

20Q (Colors May Vary) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This game is addictive and I love to take it with me for dr or dentist appointments to entertain myself while I wait.It is about the size of a tennis ball,so compact enough for you purse or coat pocket,and you can turn the sound off so as not to disturb others.Plus it has a backlit screen so low lighting is no problem.
It asks simple questions like "Is it black or green?" or "Would you find this in a school?".The object of the game is to see if you can think of an object that the question ball cannot guess and you win;dosen't get more straight forward than that.It has 4 main buttons to answer each question(yes,no,sometimes and maybe).Me and my husband sit around thinking of stuff to try out.So far I would put the ratio of correct guesses at 60:50 in favor of the ball.
It is easy enough for my 7 year old to use and since it asks many of the same questions over again for different objects she has learned some new words.This is one of those games where people will want to try it out for themselves so get ready to share! And for $10 you can't go wrong.
Highly reccomend this game for quick fun on the go or at home.

The quest to fool the "artificial intelligence" of 20Q continues. 20Q is back with Version 2.0 that's "even smarter" and a fresh new look. Players still think of something then answer a series of 20 questions until 20Q guesses what it is. A new trans-reflective screen provides easy viewing, larger buttons make it easier to play and a backlight allows for more hours of play day or night! New undo button allows you to change your answers! Colors may vary!
