The warm weather’s come to an end and the holidays will be here before you know it. Why not consider a game night to keep kids busy when school’s not in session? We have many dates available and now are pleased to offer you a new Nintendo Wii system in addition to our existing PlayStation 2 systems for rental. Game nights are a great way to attract youth and families to your library to show them everything you have to offer-plus it keeps kids entertained and active (many of our games require you to really get moving to play!)

Current PS2 games (choose up to three with each rental) include Guitar Hero, NASCAR, Dance Dance Revolution, Super Monkey Ball Adventure, Eye Toy Play 2, Eye Toy AntiGrav, Jeopardy and SingStar Rocks (more to come!) Wii games include: Dance Dance Revolution, WiiPlay, WiiSports, Wario Ware: Smooth Moves and Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz. All of these are party style games, with the accessories and instructions included (Eye Toy cameras, driving wheel and pedals, guitar, dance pad, etc.) and have projection capabilities. An additional system can also be rented (if available) for an extra $5.

Use our online registration form to reserve your kit - it's easy and takes only a couple of minutes! You'll get confirmation right away so you can start advertising immediately. The only cost to you is a $5 fee. You are also responsible for shipping, however, in some cases we've been able to pick up/drop off when in the area – call before reserving to check.
