[edit] As a treatment for Depression and Schizophrenia?

I recently read an article in New Scientist which said that brain training can largely decrease the symptoms of depression and schizophrenia - should this be added here? 88.107.225.14 (talk) 19:38, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Could you provide more information, such as issue, page, perhaps maybe a web site that quotes this? - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:01, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

I thought I'd Google for the article the original person mentioned. I haven't read the whole article, but it may appear to be this one. londonsista | ^Prod 00:22, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Brain age2

my glasses are so dirty I can not see you —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.238.107.15 (talk) 01:51, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sight Training

Was just wondering if it'd be worth mentioning this game? It's not essentially a sequel but it does follow the same principles of training a part of the body (in this case the eyes). I don't know much about it anyway, just thought I'd mention it. :) londonsista | ^Prod 00:33, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Archiving

May I also suggest archiving this talk page, it's rather long (94kb) and takes a bit of time to load. I'm gonna be bold and attempt to do so. :) londonsista | ^Prod 00:52, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about reverting you there. I didn't spot the addition of the archive, I just saw a big red (-95,324) on my watchlist and undid it, and after noticing that you had previously posted, just assumed it was accidental deletion of discussion. Sorry for the inconvenience. Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 01:19, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

No worries, didn't actually notice any reverts anyway, good to see fellow editors keeping a watchful eye though! :)londonsista | ^Prod 20:33, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed move.

Despite the game was being released in North America first, the title should be at Brain Training from Professor Kawashima: How Old Is Your Brain?. A number of reasons add up - for one, Brain Age is still one of the top-selling games in the PAL regions. For another, the sales in the US were the lowest among NA, PAL, and Japan - so much so, Iwata criticized NoA for their marketing, directly comparing them to the divisions of Nintendo in the various PAL regions. For yet another, there are more DSes sold in PAL regions than in North America. Seeing how much the game has dropped in NA and held on in PAL regions, there's even less to argue for the curretn title. - A Link to the Past (talk) 22:57, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

• Support - pretty much per nom, except the page should be Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain?, which is slightly different from the proposed name, but is the actual title in PAL regions. Dreaded Walrus ^{t c} 05:03, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
