DS #1519: Flash Focus: Vision Training in Minutes a Day (USA)

[wrathek]

eh. its for old people to get their coordination back.

I actually think this game handles the "daily" aspect better than the other Touch Generation games.

It was nice to see them have the exercise thing after training.

I like it and would like to see what else they can come up with.

Let's all stick screwdrivers in our eyes and start a class action lawsuit against Nintendo, stating that we had to gouge our eyes out to alleviate the pain caused by the game. We'll be blind, but we'll be RICH!

 

[sigmax]

[WeaponXxX]

I was gonna get lasik eye surgery next week...but maybe I will save my money and try this game instead?

 

[JacobReaper]

[moozxy]

I´m having trouble with this game.
I have a Supercard micro sd, and when patching, I get a OPEN FILE ERROR.
Anyone knows what it means?

And this is yet another proof that Nintendo is singlehandedly killing gaming. This is why I'll never ever be a Nintendo fanboy.

Well as long as you continue to purchas their hardware I thiink they could care less. Plus, as a flash card owner, you aren't exactly their best customer so I'm sure they will be crying over the loss of your fandom.


Anyway I've been waiting for this game since...Saturday when my little brother first asked me if I had it after seeing a commercial for it.

Anyway from what I've played so far I plan on getting my training in daily...that also means my poor ds will be kidnapped even more on a daily basis by my mother and brother.

Indeed, it does.

The IGN review is moronic, the reviewer makes a whole argument based on Brain Age 2 and the erroneous concept that the game's aim is to improve the vision (LOL), it seems that he didn't even read the intro to the game.

As soon as you start the little character explains the objectives of the game: focus, concentration and coordination. The exercises are vision based and that's where it differs from all the Brain Training games, well, actually, some are very similar to Big Brain Academy (which is better then Brain Age in my opinion).

The game has a wonderful interface, the design is minimalist and adapts well to the gameplay and also the instrucions are quite clear.
As a bonus there is a "eye relaxation" exercise that is the best

That's all, I really had to jump in and defend this game from those who keep bashing it thinking it's for improving eye sight (LOL dumb)

 

[pkprostudio]

I like this game.

 

[Trulen]

Haha. Awesome little game.
Too bad it won't let me do more training for unlockables.

And I brung it to play practice. In the dressing room.
And imagine the pure confusion when we all heard the lady speaking for the eye relaxation thing.

WOO!

I'll admit it looks almost identical to Brain Age, but that's no reason to dismiss the game. My wife tried it yesterday and she was immediately hooked! While she was playing I watched the game and just knew IGN would give it a bad score, because it's "more of the same". Well "more of the same quality" is never a bad in my book! I thought the Eye relaxation training was pretty original.

 

[Masked]

It's a pretty good training game with a cool UI, but I'm guessing not meant for young people or people who already have a quick response time. My friend tried the quick test option and got a 20 even while missing a few things and I scored a 27 on the more detailed test (the best score is 20). I remember I had something in the 40/50s for Brain Age.

Also, the eye relaxation didn't help me at all... I'm guessing it's supposed to be a joke.

 

[test84]

if this is just about reactions, i prefer Wario games.

 

[BoneMonkey]

this game isnt as good as smooth moves
