Gameboy advance - need games with no reading required by Frosty
We're buying my son a gameboy for his birthday. I tried the "Zelda" game beforehand and I think it will frustrate him with all the text messages interrupting the game. He'll be 6 and doesn't read more than a few words and phrases. Any experience with titles for the gameboy advance that have...
