The second installment of my review of games you probably never played is Barbie The Nintendo Game. No snappy title here its just called “Barbie”.

I should be honest I didn’t really play more than 5 minutes of this game, but I don’t think I need to in order to tell you about the highlights. First off the greatest part was that I was able to indentify with this game from the get-go. As you can see:

What a coincidence, Splash with Tom Hanks is my favorite movie! Me and Barbie have so much in common!

Ah yes, onto the game play. Barbie can’t just higher than like 6 inches and all these little guys kept coming at me. I think Barbie needs to have an interoffice affair with Luigi from Super Mario Bros. 2. I guess the point is to throw these little jewels at the bad guys, but Barbie is slow on the draw. The only real highlight is that Barbie does more of an Eat My Jewel type toss than anything else. I’d say this game is worth firing up just to see the motion in action.

P.S. Did you guys know Ken and Barbie split up? They’re still friends though. This is not original material, its the truth.

Double P.S. Mean Girls is released on DVD Sept. 21st. (I saw it twice in the theater, you can bet I am buying this little darling.)
