Scribblenauts NDS - wonderflex - 2009-08-21
I'm not sure who all has heard of Scribblenauts (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scribblenauts) before. It is a new game on the DS where anything you write will appear and aid you in finishing a level. I highly suggest looking it up on Youtube to get an idea for what I mean.
So, if this game ever comes out in Japan do you think it would be a great learning tool? You would have to solve complex puzzles using your knowledge of Japanese words, so I can only imagine that it would help you to stretch out your vocabulary some. Especially that of nouns, seeing how they are all you can write.

I've seen the game and it looks amazing. I'd rather just play it in English though; a game like that will lose something in translation.

Probably not, as it will heavily depend on vocabulary you can produce, I don't think you'll be learning anything new.

I figured though that it would encourage me to search my mind for for words that I may not use on a regular basis, but are needed to complete the level.
