I don't tend to care for MLP, but I'm not really an astro boy fan either but it has had at least one good game, so maybe this will work. If anyone could make it work, it would be wayforward. I suppose it's worth looking into.

I just thought that it would be fantastic if they used some story elements from the comics.

If they do make this, I think it would be a good idea if they made a "Very Easy" mode so that the little kids can play at their leisure. Basically, you can't die no matter what. If an enemy touches you, you just get knocked back. Pits could be covered up or the character could respawn right by the pit if they fell into it. And most importantly, no time limits.

I know, but this mode would be for... say, 4-6 year olds.

But kids today are a completely different animal. Way too accustomed to games that can be completed by doing practically nothing.

Then, lets teach them something. Simple times make simple minds.
This is the period in their life where everything changes how their brain will grow and be made. If its all easy to the point of stupidity, then guess what.

If I ever have kids, I'm gonna make them start from the beginnings with games like Super Mario Bros and other NES classics. Or, well, at least the few that I have. Then move onto my massive library of Amiga games.

Exactly, now for those who won't have those classics, I am saying that an alternative need be had.

Yeah, but that isn't what kids are really gunning for so to speak.

True, but then it comes to parenting. I, for one, wouldn't be buying them every single new game they ask for. What I have is what they get.
