Brain Age 2 Released: Twice The Fun, Twice As Hard?
Earlier this summer Nicole Kidman had signed on as Nintendo's television ad spokesperson in Europe for More Brain Training from Dr Kawashima: How Old Is Your Brain?, prompting a renewed interest in the series here in the U.S. Of course Brain Age, was already a bona fide hit with Nintendo DS fans around the globe, so everyone has been abuzz about the series' next US feature.
Yesterday, Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day was released for DS, and let me tell you, it does not disappoint.

Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box Game Review
The next time you're going on a trip and you need something skill-testing and fun to play while in the car or on a plane, I urge you to check out Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box ($30) for the Nintendo DS (OK, I'll admit, I'm a sucker for playing it right before bed). Being one of those people who loves mini-games and brainteasers (Rhythm Heaven and Brain Age 2 being two of my favorite games), I knew I had to take Professor Layton for a test drive when I found out it has 150 puzzles to solve.
When you first turn on the game, you can't help but think it's designed for a child and wonder if the mini games are actually going to be challenging to solve.
Geeks We Love: Kevin Hall of Dvice
I check in daily with Dvice, not only because of its gadget coverage, but also because of its sweet sci-fi influence. So just in case you aren't familiar (and if not, why?), let me introduce you to one of Dvice's endearingly geeky contributors — and one of this year's Geeks We Love — Kevin Hall. Recent Brooklyn transplant, this geek hottie has traveled the world, seen (almost) everything, and can still say that robots are his favorite thing .
Top 100 Games Sold in Past 12 Months = Shocking
Well, maybe not so shocking to some of you who need their Sims fix on the daily (hey, I'm not hating, just sayin'), but when I read over Next-Gen's list of the top 100 games sold in the past 12 months throughout the US and Europe, I was a little surprised. Why? Well, because if you were one of the fans of Heavenly Sword or even Burnout Paradise that made numbers 78 and 71 respectively, then you will be shaking your head to know that games like Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End made the top 20 in sales for the past year.

In case you missed it, here's the adorable Liv Tyler commercial as she geeks out with Brain Age 2.

Picross DS: Another Fun Brain Teaser
The fact that all the hot fall video game releases have hit the shelves means most of us closet gamers are now in full video game mode.
After reading an Amazon review that called Picross DS "a worthy follow-up to one of the best brain-teaser puzzle games I've played" I decided to give the game a go. It isn't as challenging as the newly released Brain Age 2 — which I assume is the "best-teaser" game the Amazon reviewer was referencing — but it is fun.
Airlines Passes Out DS Lites Instead of Peanuts - Kinda
At the risk of sounding like an exaggerator, I would like to announce the best airline news ever. Nintendo and Southwest Airlines have teamed up to give some of the airline's most-traveled flyers a surprise gift, and it's not peanuts, stale cookies or free booze. Fifty of Southwest's Rapid Rewards Members have been mailed a Nintendo DS(TM) Lite and a copy of Brain Age(TM): Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day.
DK Jungle Climber: Who Won't Go Bananas For It?
Fresh off my mental high from playing too much Brain Age 2, I tested out DK Jungle Climber, which releases next week. Boy is it ever fun.
The game, which will be available for Nintendo DS, is the sequel to DK: King of Swing for the Game Boy Advance.
