I would also add:  Be consistent in whatever approach that you choose.  The losing lesson may not work the first time around, or the second, etc.  But eventually your child will "get" it.  Don't give up!  It will be worth the final result!

You might want to avoid VS. titles altogether for a while because it will probably get a lot worse next year when the oldest one really figures out how to play some of those VS. titles at that point her sister will never win another match by anything other than luck.

Hat Trick seems to be the great equalizer.... my 5 year old can beat me pretty handily at that at times.

To each his own but I don't let my lil ones play the fight games (age 8 and 10). I also don't let them hit continue when they die on a MAME game. I would like them them to pay to play $.25 but alas I'm not that big of a hard ass. I really think there is some value in knowing that a game costs money to play. That it is a luxury and not a privilige.

Oh my god, I fricken love hat trick. Many resent drunken' battles between me and my brother on this game.

My nephew (3) was a bit difficult to teach that he had to wait his turn when his dad and I were going at it on "Marvel vs Capcom 2", but it finally stuck this last time I was over. Now after either character dies, even though you get two characters a match, he thinks it is his turn.
