New Brain Training on DSiWare today

Nintendo has added a new Brain Training game to DSiWare today, based around learning through music, pictures and words.

A new Themes mode allows drawing and even acting to be polished, plus there's a Germ Buster mini-game packed in for light relief. A Little Bit of... Dr Kawashima's Brain Training: Arts Edition costs 800 DSi Points (approx. £7/€8).

Also on DSiWare is Combat of Giants: Dragons - Bronze Edition, which sounds brilliant. The aim is to fly around as a dragon and kill other dragons - either your friends' or the computer's. Combat of Giants: Dragons costs 800 DSi Points (approx. £7/€8).

Over on WiiWare you will find PictureBook Games: A Pop-Up Adventure, a boardgame with animated pop-up paper characters. There's multiplayer so a gaggle can play together, and game costs 800 Wii Points (approx. £5.40/€8).

Finally, on Virtual Console Arcade, is the mighty Shinobi, which offers a slice of the distant past for 800 Wii Points (approx. £5.40/€8).
