Newbie family

The Newbie family is a pre-made family that appears in most games in The Sims series. The family name is a pun of "newbie", which means a newcomer or novice. This is a reference since they are commonly used as a tutorial family, most notably in The Sims. The family name is also a placeholder name in most console games when players create a Sim, which is usually Chris Newbie.

The Sims 3
The Newbie family lives at 509 Farmer Valley Road in Riverview, a downloadable town for The Sims 3. The family includes Robert and Mags Newbie, and their teen son Bob. The Newbies are new in town, and they don't appear as a tutorial family in this neighborhood.

The Newbies' house is small but rather fashionably decorated, though they only have §2,000 in their household funds. They also have a swimming pool and an expensive car. This will usually mean that when the first lot of household bills arrives on the second in-game day, before Robert and Mags have been to work for the first time, the bills will take up over half of their small savings. This apparent over-spending may explain why the Newbie family are not very well off in future games, despite seeming to be in a good financial situation at the moment.

The Sims
The Newbie family, consisting of Bob and Betty Newbie Simovich, lives at 7 Sim Lane in The Sims. In this game, the Newbies are used as a tutorial family. This tutorial must be completed before the Newbie family can be played.

The Sims 2
In The Sims 2, the Newbies are no longer playable, as they are already deceased. Their only daughter, Brandi Broke, and their grandchildren Dustin, Beau, and the unborn baby Broke are the descendant of the Newbies, and are now known as the Broke family in Pleasantview. Bob and Betty only appear in Brandi's family tree.

The Newbie family appears in The Sims 2 for console. They also appear in The Sims 2 Pets for console as a tutorial family as well. The playable members are Bob and Betty, as well as Buddy Newbie in Pets for console. Their appearances, however, are very different than the previous games. Both of their skin tones are darker than the other games.

Glitches

 * In The Sims, the player can start the tutorial at 7 Sim Lane and end it before the introduction of Betty Newbie so that life goes on for Bob without her. Bob can be played as a normal Sim character then, free to marry another Sim.
 * If one rushes through the tutorial too quickly, the player can encounter the section about finding a job before the papergirl arrives which causes the tutorial to end on an error.
