Japanese Nintendo DS games

Postby halpin » September 8th, 2008 3:17 pm

Mina-san,

Can anyone recommend some good Japanese DS games, which would have a sufficient amount of Japanese for practice (JLPT level 3)?

By the way, I don't mean kanji or language learning tool.

Has anyone played the Japanese version of Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (Wish Room Tenshi no Kioku - http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/awij/index.html); would a more advanced level of the language be nescessary?

How about Zelda in Japanese?

If anyone has some good recommendations, please share.

Thanks,
Brian

If you are looking for kana-only games, Apparently Rockman and Pokemon are great.

If you're looking for easy ones with Kanji, the only 'easy' one I know is Zelda, since it does the kana thing when you tap on them.

Otherwise, if you're looking for game-games, and not educational games, just try to pick games aimed at kids. Anything for teens or adults is going to be kanji- and vocab-heavy.
