Shark-themed video games?

[mrudman]

Does anyone know if anything exists?

My older dd has asked for a shark video game, and I can't find one anywhere.

I know about the "101 shark pets", but that is a downloadable game for the DSi only, and dd has the regular DS.

Are there any out there for either the DS, the Wii, or a PC (the 3 systems we have)?

Thanks!

here is one along a prehistoric idea...we dont have it but I always thought it looked intriguing:

Hmm, thanks for that link! Does look pretty neat.. wonder if 1 of the 6 sea creatures they talk about that you can use is a shark.. hard to tell in the description.

Anyone know of any other shark ones? Thanks!

My 9 yr old DS is VERY into sharks... his last two bday parties have been shark themed. (His 9 yr party had a Jimmy Buffett twist!)

Anyway, I looked everywhere for all things sharks. I saw the prehistoric game the PP mentioned, but I ended up getting an ocean explorer game for our Wii system. It's not just sharks though, & it's more about exploring the ocean.

I know you specifically mentioned video games, but, for Christmas, I've found some shark science kits & activities that we'll probably get him for Christmas.

Could you link me to the game you're talking about? Also, if the science kits are online, could you give me the link to those also? Thanks so much!

Oh, dear! I've never posted links before... let's see if this works!

If not, the name of the game is Endless Ocean: Blue World. I found it at Amazon. Both DS & DD like it, but it's really not about sharks.

Here's one of the kits - it's a shark casting & paint set, also at Amazon:

And this is the one I'm looking at for DS because he's fascinated w/ shark teeth right now:

For his last bday, we also got him the Discovery Channel's Shark Week Anniversary DVD Set.

Hope that helps!!

My DD says her Sea Park Tycoon includes a hammerhead shark. Not much, sorry
