Game Watch just gave me another reason to want a Japanese DSi. This newly announced bit of DSiWare, entitled Time Diagnosis, looks like it could easily fill the WarioWare shaped hole that (in my opinion) the service currently suffers from.
My Japanese is awful, so I asked around the Dtoid offices to see what this game's all about. According to Topher, the site says that Time Diagnosis is a collection of "chicken" mini-games: see how long you can drop out of a plane before pulling your parachute, see how far you can fill a glass without it spilling over, drive as fast as you can toward a cliff and try to stop at the last possible second, etc. If you manage to pull out win time, the game gives you a percentage score to rate how chicken you are.
Also, something in the description says "chicky chicky down." Don't be surprised to hear me saying that over and over again for the next couple of years.
So yeah, I want this game. Get on that, Western videogame publishers.

It's funny you should bring this game up since I've been looking all over for more info on the game on the JPN shop. Maybe I'll try it out and let you know!
