For the hard-to-please pre-teen! Success, he loves it!

Just spoke to my nephew today. He absolutely is absorbed into this game. He tells me that the special effects are as fun as the actual game. This is his first 3-D Nintendo and apparently we picked a good game for his birthday, Steel Diver! He has another 3-D game or two, but says that in some ways they look like the old games without 3-D. This one is "awesome".
