Are you a silly man? In just 10 minutes a day, this DS Lite game will teach you basic manners and social skills. Using what Nintendo calls a Common Sense Chart, your knowledge of everything from classical music to where to sit when sharing a cab with your superiors from work will be carefully charted.
On the one hand, I'm a huge advocate of this game. I wish it had a component on how to treat women, and I wish there was a US version so I don't have to hear any more stupid pick up lines from tactless guys.
But I think it also stinks of politics. My wonderfully delicious conspiracy theory: fearful of declining social morale and the culturally confused youth, the ministries teamed up with Nintendo to create this game and put Japanese society back on their track. Maybe those conniving prime minister candidates are behind it too. I think I'll call them up tomorrow and ask--you know, just in case.
hehe interesting! i want to play this game! do you have it?
