Let your DS tell you what to do: Personal Trainer series details

The Nintendo Media Summit brings about more news, including details on the newly announced Personal Trainer games for the DS. 

As a foodie, I’ve always been jealous of the great selection of cooking tutorials available for the DS in Japan. The new Personal Trainer: Cooking looks like it might take the sting off. It’s an electronic cookbook, complete with videos and a glossary. This launches November 24th in the US. 

After all that eating, you’ll need the Personal Trainer: Walking title Like Ubisoft’s My Weight Loss Coach, this will include a pedometer, though this one is “wireless.” This title promises to turn “walking into interactive entertainment.” Ooh.

One I’ll pass on might be good for you book nerds. Personal Trainer: Math hits in 2009. It’s a collection of math drills based on the Kageyama method, whatever the hell that is. I use the Calculator method.
