Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training - DS

Does anyone have this yet?

Not out until 19th May over the pond, but i've read about it and it sounds really cool. You can play sudoku!

Who says video games aren't healthy...  :D
 
I saw this on the shelf at Best Buy ( I didn't realize it was out yet ) and I was like, "Hmm!". My keen eyes then located the 19.99 price tag. "Hmm!" My swift fingers then picked it up and carried it off to the cashier on a whim. I knew millions of Japanese liked this game - the box looked appealing. .

And yes. It's great. It's really quick, quirky, and fun. I've been playing it every day and so has my girlfriend. It's a virus and it's solid and good. The price tag makes it fair and I concur greatly, doctor.
 
I downloaded the demo at a DS Download Station recently... it seemed fun, and a nice price tag too :p The demo had a game in which you stated the color of a word, you know... the old trick. Example: What color is the font here: Green Red right? It's the old brain trick :p But what was cool was the fact you shouted the word into the microphone. Interesting.
 
I need to try this game. I guess all the reviews say it's good and all but it doesn't have any replay value. Let me know if this is true!

Depends on how you mean it.. I only play it for a short amount of time, but I've yet to fail (aside from yesterday! Doh!) to fire it up every day since I bought it last week. It's just fun, I think about it a lot, and if you have people around who can play on the same cart with you to compare things it's a lot of fun to keep up.

Plus there's Sudoku, which I've recently been introduced to and it's fantastic. I love that little game and there are plenty of Sudoku puzzles in Brain Age to play for many hours at least.
 
A friend of mine showed it to me, I did pretty good, except the one where you had to count how many people went in and out of a house kinda tripped me up

it's a good excuse to fire up your DS everyday for a little bit
 
I love it! It's really fun, and I love the challenge of getting my brain age to 20. My favorite test is the Syllable Count, mostly because I rock at it. I performed it at Rocket Speed once! It was cool.

For $20 guys, you really can't go wrong with Brain Age. If you don't like it, you can probably trade it back to BV without a huge loss.
