DS Brain TrainingYou frantically search for those darn glasses of yours only to realize that they are only placed in your shirt. You happen to bump into an acquaintance and you were so embarrassed because you can't even remember his name. You were writing an amount in your cheque book and you suddenly get confused, is 40 spelled as 'forty' or 'fourty'...Sound familiar? Well, maybe you can use a little help from Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain? which will be launched in the United Kingdom tomorrow.

The game was already a phenomenal success in Japan and it already sold 2.4 million copies. The game allegedly stimulates your brain and helps train mental awareness and your long-term memory by being used for a few minutes each day...that is according to its creators.

Dr. Ryuta Kawashima is a respected neuroscientist and he developed a series of quick but challenging exercises designed to energize the brain. The game will go on sale tomorrow (Friday, June 9) on U.K. and it would have an estimated retail price of around £20 Pounds (or roughly $37 U.S. bucks).

» Bought it last week

I wonder though why it gets released in the UK one week after the rest of Europe? Nevertheless it's a fun "game".
