The '''Newbie family''' is a premade family who appear in most [[The Sims series|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 central storyline of the family involves [[Bob Newbie|Bob]] and [[Betty Newbie]]. During their teenage years, they lived in [[Riverview]], a downloadable [[neighborhood]] from [[The Sims 3 Store|''The Sims 3'' Store]]. Since both of them were still teenagers, they lived apart. Bob lived with his parents, [[Robert Newbie|Robert]] and [[Mags Newbie]], while Betty, whose maiden name is [[Simovitch family|Simovitch]], lived with her parents, [[Vadim Simovitch|Vadim]] and [[Fatima Simovitch]]. The Newbies were new in town, and they didn't appear as a tutorial family in this neighborhood. Bob seemed to have found his lovelife in Riverview. The Newbies' house was small but rather fashionably decorated, though they only had §2,000 in their household funds.
Years later in ''[[The Sims]]'', they are grown up. Betty was married to Bob, and took Bob's surname as Newbie. They moved to [[Neighborhood 1]] and lived in [[7 Sim Lane]]. In this game, the Newbies are used as a tutorial family. Players need to follow the tutorial first at the start of the game.
