Brain Training proves that brunettes are smarter than blondes

At a recent Brain Training-event in the Netherlands, Nintendo organized a contest between brunette and blonde girls to check out what the average Brain Age is. The contest, which had 20 brunettes and 20 blondines set up against each other, proved that brunettes had a younger brain age, with a gap of ten years, compared to the blondes.

they think they can get through life with just that.

I disagree. I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder, but I'm more attracted to brunettes. Plus, blondes seem much more likely to be ditzy, which is a big turn-off for me.

Anyway, I don't know that "Brain Training" is a very accurate measure of intelligence...at all. I mean, how does a game of Paper, Rock, Scissors show intelligence?

If Nintendo rolled out VC two years ago like they should have, there would probably be DS and 3DS games on the Switch by now. But yeah, I think DS and 3DS are something they should do.

It would be nice to see both Bravely titles on the Switch.

What an interesting article. I played brain training a few times when it first came out, and I actually liked it a lot, despite the fact that it was basically the same kind of stuff that I was doing (and hating) at school.
And wow, 9 people worked on it and it only took 3 months? Then it went on to sell 19 million copies! That's just incredible! It must have had a massive profit margin.

I love these kinds of games, not sure how accurate they are but its usually a lot of fun for a little while.
