I am reminded of the copy protection method used in the floppy disk release of TIE Fighter.

Monkey Island's code wheel was quite memorable from back in the day. Would be a sweet piece of nostalgia to have about

@Jetup Its an easy joke to make because you know JC titled the article this way on purpose. Was about to post it myself if I hadn't seen your post.
Do enjoy the reference though. Miss that show. : starts humming theme song:
"Butterfly in the sky
I can go twice as high
Take a look
It's in a book
A Reading Rainbow!"

so, umm, a nintendo ds game, that you need to haul a book around to play? yay?
requiring to look up stuff from a book sounds exactly like old game copy protections, with some old games however there was another reason to ship a book: memory. you could fit a lot more of pictures and text to the experience that way.

I'm actually surprised that they weren't just showing a trailer of the PS3 version at the DS game demo.

Now lets play, "Guess which feature will be cut from the American release?"
Bonus Points: What will happen to the main characters eyebrows on the American boxart?

Seems like this book would work better as an out-of-game puzzle solving experience whilst still maintaining a semblance of immersion as opposed to an MMO I read about that has you do an actual google search.
