Am I the only one who likes Brain Training and More Brain Training for the DS (Brain Age and Brain Age 2 for the US)? These titles seem to be underappreciated on these forums for some reason. I hadn't tried much Sudoku before Brain Training and now I'm addicted.

They're not traditional games. Probably wouldn't even call it a game, but anyway, I thought this titles were pretty fun.

What do you guys think?

I actually heard Brain Age can rasie your overall IQ as high as 10 points. If I see Brain Age on the DS discounted I'd buy it. Most people would say "oh I hate using my brain to play games" though.

And wow a 3+ rating? Lol, I've never seen that before. I couldn't imagine a situation where you'd have to pull out ID to prove you're 3 or older. :lol:

lol, I thought it might be because they'd be worried under 3 year olds would chew/eat the DS' touch pen.

My little cousin who's like 5 adores this game for some reason.

My brother has it, but I'm not a fan.

Likewise he is not a fan of Phoenix Write, but I love it. I just imported number 3 from Play Asia for £15. :)

I was a big fan of the first one played it regularly for about 2 months and traded it in once I had done pretty much everything.

I bought the second one as well but it hasn't hooked me in quite the same way.

Pegi isn't their for age verification. It is their to advise the purchaser what age groups it is suitable for (like you get on board games)

Yup. I have the first one. I enjoyed it a lot. I don't know what's stopping me getting the second.

Yeah, it's really smart of Nintendo. This and Nintendogs have brought so many new people into gaming. Very nice.

I think you are the only one in the entire universe (including parallel universes) that could possibly enjoy this game. There is no one else that has ever enjoyed these titles ever. Forget the millions of copies sold in Japan. They all hated it. You are indeed the only sole that has ever enjoyed this game. Forget the popularity of this game in the United States as well. No one liked it but you. Only you. You are the only one ever to like this game.
