Update: April 25, 2007
«©NCSX» Brain games took Japan by storm a couple of years ago thanks to the pioneering efforts of Nintendo's "Nou wo Kitaeru Otona no DS Training" or "Brain Age" as it is known in the USA. As is routine when a new product finds a massive audience, clones and copycats hit the market with alarming speed. Yawaraka Atama Juku is one such clone that was originally released on the Nintendo DS where the software teased young minds with simple brain games. The Wii update is targeted at a general audience from children to teenagers to adults who can all partake of the exercises. Upon starting the interaction, five categories are presented which test skills such as language comprehension, relative analysis, memory skills, perception, and simple arithmetic. Presented in a colorful and attractive environment, the questions should prove more enticing to young and old minds than a non-interactive book. Exercises are broken up into five main categories as mentioned above. Under the threshold of each category is a subset of four games for a total of 20 brain challenges. Up to 8 players may join in the action and individualized Miis may be used to differentiate players from each other. View the back cover and screenshots on the main NCSX website.
NCS Game Notes
» Some examples of the games are as follows:- A picture slowly forms and you'll have to figure out what it is as quickly as possible. - A portion of an image with patterns on top is missing. Point and click on the tile that fills in the image correctly from three multiple choices. - Covered bird cages appear and are uncovered. They are then shuffled around. Tap on the cages which had the birds after the scrambling action. - A top image is shown. A bottom image of blocks is also shown. Demolish the blocks on the lower image by pointing and clicking around until the structure matches the top image structure. - A construct made of blocks is shown on the top screen as viewed from one perspective. Four choices are shown below it but viewed from different perspectives. Point and click on the matching construct. - Numbers are shown on blocks which are stacked up. A sum amount is shown on the upper right corner. Use a hammer to knock blocks out until the remaining blocks show numbers that total the sum amount. Japanese Region Alert
