Nintendo flashes us with Vision Training

Halfway through its E3 2007 media briefing today, Nintendo announced that it will expanding its line of casual titles in the US with Strengthen Your Visual Power through Practice: Vision Training (Miru Chikara wo Jissen de Kitearu: DS Ganriki Training), retitling the game as Flash Focus: Vision Training in Minutes a Day.

If neither of the titles suitably sum up the game for you, it is a collection of exercises and minigames that test you on field of vision and eye-hand coordination, using the results to determine the age of your eyes. Shift your eyes past the post break for some video impressions of the Japanese demo from CAG's CheapyD!

- So, vision age. Why don't they just make a giant Every Part of Your Body Age Training. I mean, they're making a lot. I thought Face was pushing it.
- Wasn't there a study showing video games in general train your eyes? In which case, I could just play any game instead of a quick mini-game version.
