My DS6 was a little obsessive with computer games. (we don't have a DS or Wii) He'd bargain for computer time and he usually got what he wanted. It took me a while to realize that his computer time had gotten significantly longer.

He has just started taking computer programming for the purpose of eventually being able to write his own game. Since this has started, his addiction to the games themselves seems to have gone away. He now barters for programming time and seems fascinated with the whole process.
