Pros: +easy to pick up and play +may prevent alzheimers +addicting and fun +simple
Cons: -needs more mini-games -Dr.Lobe only has one arm -you may grow bored of it
Welcome to Big Brain Academy Shortly after the purchase of my Nintendo DS lite I needed to find another game for it, because Trauma Center:Under Knife wasn't cutting it for me (no pun intended). So I said to myself,"what better way to ...

Big Brain Academy: More Smartening From Nintendo

by GravityGirl Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 22 '06
Pros: Games are fun, price is low
Cons: Progress is not tracked, not a lot of extras
Big Brain Academy (BBA) for the DS is the second in a line of “smartening” games for the DS. It is a shabby cousin to the other “smartening” game, Brain Age. One cannot avoid comparing the two games; not only are they from the same ...

Think, Think, Think with Big Brain Academy

by patricknjacob , Oct 11 '08
Pros: Differing levels, quick play, great for all ages.
Cons: Can be frustrating for avid gamers who try to test without practicing.
I am a thief. I stole the think, think, think< i> line from Steve Burns of Blues Clues< b> fame. However, if you are thinking that Nintendo's Big Brain Academy< b>< i> on the same level as Blue and her friends, you are sadly mistaken.< p> ...

Pros: Fun, addicting, thinking game
Cons: Can get frustrating
I love Big Brain Academy! My Experience Big Brain Academy (BBA) for the DS has been extremely addicting! To start, you must first create a profile. Each person has their own profile so they can collect medals and also keep track ...

I have never been so hooked on a video game.

by houdini16409 , Feb 24 '08
Pros: addicting, cheap
Cons: You will never be the best.
My husband bought everyone in our family a Nintendo DS for Valentine's Day. I have wanted on for awhile now, but it was never a priority. I was so excited when I received one. I have never been a big fan of video games that take a lot of skill, ...

fun and addicting, better than similar games

by kyndthreds , Jul 06 '07
Pros: Hours upon hours of fun, challenging at times, doesn't get boring, great price!
Cons: Some of the games can get boring after, but most of them are still fun!
I actually really like this game, it's one of my favorites! I own the other very similar game, Brain Age, and find this one to be a lot more fun. It has a lot of different games that you can do and unlike Brain Age you can play it as many times as you ...

Fun, but repetitive

by sigsauerman , Aug 06 '08
Pros: Some Games are good, Time-waster
Cons: Gets boring, repetitive, Childish
The DS has been the focal point of Nintendo's many new brain-improving games. This is one of them. The first thing that strikes you when you start up big brain academy is the more casualness of the game. The game lacks the formality of Brain Age, and ...

Repetitive, gets old really quickly
by hbj200 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000,Mar 21 '07
Pros: Fun for a few minutes
Cons: Repetitive, harsh grading, questionable value
Big Brain Academy is a collection of repetitive "games" that test your memory and vision. You can choose to test yourself or practice. Either way, the number of game choices is limited -- and unlocking practice games is a pain as you need to play the same game in each category over and over (even if you score well each time) in order to advance. I'm surprised the other people found this fun. Well, I got a B- on my first test and in a couple days I scored an A. I guess maybe I'm too smart for this. (But I admit I was stupid to have wasted $20 on the game, so I guess I'm no smartie after all.)

Keeps You Thinking And Also Promotes Brain Activity
by Bigbroad55 ,Dec 30 '07
Pros: Promotes brain activity not just a regular video game
Cons: Does not keep track of what you are doing
My daughter received this game as a Christmas Gift, the game is wonderful it keeps you thinking and also promotes brain activity. There are adding and subtracting games, look alike games, also draw and connect the dots.

It also helps with adding money and subtracting money keeps you on the go and also how many you need.

The game also grades you as well with C B & A but does not keep track of what you are doing.
