Game & Watch games on DS (on Kanji sonomama Rakubiki Jiten) #1

http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/arjj/gamewatch/index.html

You can actually find fully playable Game & Watch games inside Kanji sonomama Rakubiki Jiten. If you just search for the name of the Game & Watch games, then just click on the game's name in the dictionary, it will launch the Game & Watch game within the dictionary.

Currently confirmed games include Man Hole and Judge. There seems to be plenty more.

There are five games in it. I can't remember what they are though but the list below is probably correct.
- Manhole
- Judge
- Juggler(Calling Ball I believe)
- Flag( Something like Simon says)

Oh yeah I forgot. Many other early games will be in the dictionary as well such as "DonkeyKong", "Mario", "The Legend of Zelda" etc.

DK, MB, & LoZ are in it? Now I'm considering it as well.

They're not. You can look the games up in the dictionary, and there are little encyclopedia style entries about them. But the games aren't there.

Sorry for the confusion. I said they were in the dictionary, but I didn't say it was playable. It's still cool to have a dictionary that have so many games that you can look up though.

PS1: Sorry for the language, english is not my own language.
PS2: Hudson just release a new Bomberman for PSP called "Bomberman Portable" Here

This makes me happy. I bought a damn E-Reader just because they were supposed to release a collection of Game & Watch games for it, and the Reader itself game with Manhole which was awesome. And then it just...never came out. It needs to have more games though.

So along with stuff like this, did Nintendo actually put useful extra options into the dictionary this time? A world clock worth a damn? Maybe a unit converter?

Well, let's see.

The world clock, I think, still bites. Unless I'm missing something, it just assumes that you're in Japan, and there's no way to set your home country, which means that it's 2:09 AM in San Francisco right now hahahaa.

The calculator isn't scientific. No unit convertor. There's a "Nihongo quiz," but it's Nihongo for Nihonjin, like, stupid hard questions probably for college entrance exam study. There's a TOEIC flash card section that gives you the 1000 words you need to know.
