Students Must have DS for School!

This is one of those articles that will make you happy, and very angry at the same time. About ten elementary and middle schools in the Osaka area will begin plans to distribute Nintendo DS consoles, plus educational software, to their students; though the kids won’t get their grubby hands on them until January. Surprisingly the Osaka Board of Education approved of this teaching method; probably after playing a round of Brain Age.
To no surprise, not everyone is happy about this. The biggest complaint is about the use of taxpayer’s money going straight into Nintendo’s deep pockets. Hell, if they are going to go this far why not just make Nintendo part of the Japanese government? What’s next, Wii Fit in gym class?

*shakes hand at Japan* Damn you all to heck!
