Got this the other day. I love it. A great little thing to keep the brain going from day to day. Slowly unlocking more and more excercises too, some are definately more fun than others...

I intend to get this when I finally buy a DS Lite. I think my dad needs it, since his memory is getting, shall we say, a little rusty. I recall seeing it reviewed on breakfast TV a while ago by some shrink and it's supposed to be quite good.

I got this last week, it is very cool. I do my brain exercises on the train every morning while the hideous polygonal head goads me on to ever greater feats of mental agility.
Some of the excercises are really tough though - the one where you have to count people coming in and out of a house and keep track of the number inside starts deceptively easy, but the speed ramps up towards the end and I always lose count.
I like some of the other little things it does too, like last week it asked me what I had for dinner on a certain evening - then this week it popped up and asked me what I had for dinner that same night again, which ofcourse I had forgotten.

It's called "Brain Age" here in the US and it's pretty good.

There's another one called Big Brain Academy that I have. It's really good, and surprisingly addictive.

I got my Brain Age down to 20 recently. "Low to High" is a real bitch
Big Brain Academy really doesn't impress me as much.

That game is pretty fun. The Sukoku is a ton o' fun. I plan on getting it when I get my lite, when ever that is...
