My Japanese Coach will probably be the most appealing of Sensory Sweep's language tutors simply because of how import Japanese is to the gaming industry. Maybe this game will be your gateway into importing (and actually understand the words on the screen) games. There're a few minor flaws, but the balance of Romanji, Japanese Characters and English is nicely done, and the vocal aspects of the game are amongst the sharpest and cleanest out there.
NoBSGamers writes: "There was a time when the purpose of a video game was simple. It existed solely to entertain you. Sure, companies were in it for profit, but the product was all about fun. Today however, the sirens song of self improvement has warmed its way into the ears of game makers, and games that also teach have gone from Pre-K to a multi-million dollar industry."
Jessica Chobot shares some travel stories and gives her take on whether My Japanese Coach is for you.
With the Wii ushering in a new era of gaming for people who aren't adolescent and college kids, gamers may be surprised to see a sudden increase of real girls at their local Gamestop. The retailer is teaming up with feminine magazines for its "Sharpen the Mind, Shape the Body" promotion.
I really don't think this is going to work on most people. Then again, it's probably a very cheap promotion to run.
When you're stores look like most GameStop's do, I don't think many females will want to go in. Probably a worthless promotion.
I wonder if they'll try to pawn off that used game membership card on those poor, unsuspecting females.
