I got him Phantom Hour Glass last year, I'm not sure what to do this year. It seems like he has the games that are worth having on the DS and PSP and the rest are either inappropriate for his age or probably too difficult. Something like Radiant Historia would be too complicated right? Any recommendations? Maybe something that's not a game?

does he have a music collection? iPod nano, but thats costly

Hmm, how about accessories for his DS or PSP. I honestly can't think of anything, I think for my 10 year old niece, we got her a DS and I get her a new game the following years.

@Video_Game_King: I know you're joking, but that cover art would have been prime fap-fodder when I discovered myself. (edit: still is)

How are you related to him? Is it the kind of thing where getting him Maddox's Alphabet of Manliness for him would be an issue?

Also going to say a prostitute. It may not be something a 10 year old will use now, but trust me when he's more grown up he'll love it. You just gotta think in terms of what's best in the long run.

@Video_Game_King: They're legal now. I'm pretty sure it's ok.

If you've considered buying him video games I assume you've moved out of your parents - or you'd just share your games with him. Anytime I've got to think of a gift and seriously can't come up with anything I make fresh home made donuts and deliver them to their house in the morning when I know they've just woken up and are about to have breakfast. I know this because I watch people... in their sleep.

What else is he into, and do you have a spending limit? Maybe he's into Lego or some fiction that Lego has a set for?

de Blob 2 on DS is a game you may of overlooked. Won't blow you away but is a simple enjoyable platformer with quirky sound effect each time you colour something in.

Get him a chemistry set, or one of those PaperJamz guitars or microphones (autotuuuune), or something from Nerf, a LEGO set, a music keyboard, an RC car or a real guitar and amp.

@Toxeia:

Well, your post said that you'd jerk it to the cover art, not necessarily the girls today. Regardless, I doubt this is satisfactory fapping material. They'd look more at home on a "faces of meth" type of thing.

Its never not ok (legally, its still creepy as shit) to fap to a 13 year old. but its just not legal to possess, distribute or create child porn.

If you jerk off to a picture of children, but those children are now grown up, you're still jerking off to a picture of children.

Im not going to get into an argument about it being wrong to be attracted to young children ( It isn't, its wrong to act on it ) but i believe i mentioned, and was speaking Legally.

Buy him a DVD Player. A broken DVD player. Put a game he'd be really into inside of it and give it to him. Be all depressed like "I didn't know what to get you" and when he plugs it in MOTHERFUCKING HALOOOOOOOO HALOOOOO OH MY GOD BEST BROTHER EVER IT'S HALOOOOOOOO HALLLOOOOOOOO HALOOOOOOO

No, but I doubt he'll get through that game. There are so many gameplay mechanics to learn and the difficulty level is pretty high.

I'm really wondering what the mystery is in MaryKate and Ashley's Magical Mystery Mall.

I mean... I've never played a game about a magical mall before, so I have no idea.

He's not 13 yet, but you know it's never too early to start teaching him important life lessons. Trust me, it's the gift that keeps on giving.

Yeah there are no laws on the farm! Or at least that's what you'd like to think. (Don't worry, I know what I'm talking about, I've seen your profile images).

@H2Oyea: I am seriously warning you not to give this person any more information regarding the '10 year old boy' you made this topic about. This thread should be locked, pending further investigations, and any evidence should be passed on to the appropriate authorities
