Happy to see a Western release at least be close to the Jaoanese one (especially after the last Dr Kawashima game...)
Release date may seem strange but at a decent price it could be quite an impulse "got a Switch for Christmas, what else can I get" buy

There's no way that rock paper scissors game will read clearly, you'll have to do the hand gesture like five times in a row. It's Brain Training tradition.
The Japanese site had a disclaimer saying some games wouldn't work with the Lite, yeah.
4 or 5 minigames have joycon needed to be played, but all the others are compatible
Thanks guys, so the game itself is compatible with Lite but not certain minigames, got it :-)
Interested to see if the game is able to differentiate when you have a Switch Lite. My partner would love this, but I'm getting her a Lite for Xmas. If it just suddenly comes across games that aren't properly playable that would be pretty frustrating.
Man, how I liked it back when I had my DS Lite...
Edit: Literally scanning ebay right now for used DS's :/

I'm glad there's a retail version. No, seriously I'm happy that this is coming. I have fond memories of playing that game in summer 2006 (The time it came out in Europe). It came out around the same time as the DS lite. It was the time when the DS really took off.
Maybe you can play it if you buy and use a pair of Joy-con separately?
It doesn't need to. The game will just tell you there aren't enough paired controllers.
I still have fond memories of my mom claiming my ds for a couple months when the first Brain Age came out. I might get her a Switch lite with Brain Age.
Yes it s the case. It s clearly stated in the pr (at least the french one)
The number recognition is pretty broken. Does someone else experience issues with it?
I hope they will deliver a patch, fast. My current Version is 1.1.0.

It's been a long time since I played the DS version but I would say it depends. There are (so far) 2 exercises where the answer could be a double-digit and this is where the software struggles the most in my opinion. For example I wrote a 4 and on screen came something like 23 or 12.
4s and 8s, sometimes 2s are the most difficult for the game with my handwriting. After practicing a bit it gets better because I get used to "what the game wants" but it shouldn't be like that.
