The central storyline of the family involves [[Bob Newbie|Bob]] and [[Betty Newbie]]. During their teenage, they lived in [[Riverview]], a downloadable [[neighborhood]] from [[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.
Bob and Betty do not appear as playable Sims within a neighbourhood in ''[[The Sims 2]]'' family of games apart from ''[[The Sims 2 Pets (console)|The Sims 2 Pets for console]]''. As former residents of [[Pleasantview]] , the now-deceased Bob and Betty appear in the family tree view as mother and father of the playable Sim [[Brandi Broke]], and as the grandparents of her two sons.
 
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.
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', the family lives in [[Riverview]], and consists of teenage Bob and his parents [[Robert Newbie|Robert]] and [[Mags Newbie|Mags]]. Their house is small but expensively and fashionably decorated, and they own a middle-range car. However, they only have §2,000 in their household funds and neither Robert nor Mags earns much money. Their first bill payment will usually cost more than half of the money they have, suggesting that they may be living beyond their means. This may be the reason why the Newbies are poor later in the series chronology.
 
In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', the Newbies are no longer playable, as they are already deceased. Their only daughter [[Brandi Broke]], and their grandchildren [[Dustin Broke|Dustin]], [[Beau Broke|Beau]], and the [[unborn baby Broke]] are the descendant of the Newbies, who 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 (console)|''The Sims 2'' for console]]. They also appear in [[The Sims 2 Pets (console)|''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.

The Newbie family is the one used in The Sims by "novice and inexperienced" players. When the player first begins the game, they are prompted to go to the Newbie household. Bob's name suits him, seeing as he is famous in the sense that all Sims players are aware of him.
