Birthday ideas for 13-year old boy?
He's turning thirteen in September. And we need to find 13 gifts for his thirteenth birthday.
He's a little nerdy...much resembling Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. Actually, REALLY resembling Sheldon. But yea.
He doesn't really listen to a lot of music...he has a PS2, Nintendo DS, and Wii. He loves strategy computer games (like the Civilization games, Age of Mythology/Empires, Spore, etc.) and hates board games.
So what's a good thing to get for him??
-Peace.Love.Earth.
Thanks for the help in advance!!

The top 5 types of Wii Games to Entertain your Teen
Without question, teenagers are the #1 market for Nintendo Wii games, but for parents, the challenge is to find ones that are suitable as well as entertaining.
Many of the games with action including blood, shooting, etc, are rated T for Teens and M for Mature, so it comes down to the individual to determine which games are suitable for your children. A good idea is to search online for information about each of the Wii games in this category. The chances are your teen aged kids will tell you all about the games they are the most interested in -- especially if Christmas or a birthday is approaching. Talk to them about it will give you a good indication of what the options are.
Music games are another type which are really popular with teenagers. Of course this is the time when a career as a rock star or something else that is high profile and pays extremely well is still something they imagine. There are several Guitar Hero games with an newer version coming out later this year. It will allow more people than ever to play against each other at one time.
The Rock Band games are very popular with teenagers who love to play the Nintendo Wii. These games offer more instruments including the drums accessory that you can buy for them. Both of these types of games feature various songs by popular artists so take the time to explore what music your teen likes before you buy any of them.
Most teenagers are very active so the type of games with physical activity are also popular. They really seem to like the Wii Fit and all the features it offers. They can spend time inside being active when it is cold outside. They can also compete against their friends in the various activities. The Wii Fit will help them to get stronger, get into shape and even improve their balance. You can’t complain too much if your teenager is spending a great deal of time playing such games on the Wii.
Racing games are popular with any age group and that includes the teenagers. Some of them are getting very excited about getting a learners permit. Others already have their license. Yet being able to race Mario with the Mario Kart game is something completely different. The experience of playing is increased by using the Wii Wheel, so that is an accessory worth getting.
Super Smash Brothers is another Mario game the teenagers are very impressed with. You can choose from any of your favorite Nintendo characters including Sonic the Hedgehog. The characters can duel, with each having their own powers and weaknesses. Players have to learn how to use the particular character they are fighting wit whilst being prepared for their opponent at the same time.
You will likely find that you also enjoy many of the same games as teenagers. Take some time to play them with them and you may experience some unexpected coolness while you interact over Wii games. It can help bridge the inevitable generation gap a teenagers often think they have all the answers and their parents are too old to understand. Some really fun times ensue when you spend time playing the Wii with your teenagers.
The cost of these popular Nintendo Wii games for your teenagers are going to vary. Some of them are only about $30 but the majority of them are about $60. The most expensive seems to be the Wii Fit for about $175 but something to keep them active and in shape is really worth the investment.
