GameSpot Brain Training

GameSpot Reviews Brain Age from Dr. Ryutu Kawashima. The reviewer reports that after seven days, he is improving in some areas but not in others. As you may have heard, this Nintendo DS title is excelling in Japan and will hit the U.S. market in later April. Clearly, there will be a huge increase in global demand for cognitive games and exercises - those with credited studies behind them and academic support will offer the most long-term value. Kawashima has adopted the idea of cognitive cross training - working the mind with different kind of exercises.

I guess they are hoping that this will create a new market for Nintendo DS ( on top of Nintendogs ). For ease of accesibility, casual games anywhere should be the philosophy.
