Winner: Tracie Williams (UK) via UK Parents Lounge.
"Our gaming moment is Toby on the DS, he's obsessed with Mario bros and yells "Take that gumba" and when he moves onto a new world we are all made to sit and watch him become, Big Mario, Small Mario and even turn into Luigi (with some cheats he found on the net). By the time he puts the NDS lite down we feel exhausted and have been Mario."

To win a Mertoid Prime Wii, simply post your best 'family gaming moment' on my Facebook wall.

Winner: Tracey Robertson (Glasgow) via UK Parents Lounge.
"Every time I turn on the wii my 3 year old son and my 16 mth old daughter stop what they are doing and climb up onto the sofa, leaning on the arm of the sofa and sit really quiet and engrossed watching me. They do not move again until it is switched off.
I love playing Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games - At the events where u can make your character clap for audience participation my wee boy claps his hands too.
It actually brings tears to my eyes as Owen is Autistic so it is amazing to watch him. Its also the only time that Owen and Megan sit near each other without Owen biting or nipping his sister so its really nice to see them getting along."
