Yeah seriously, what happened to Italian, Spanish, French, etc? I have a feeling after everyone buys it, they'll release one with all those languages and give it a fancy name.

this game/software sounds great! i can get better at japanese and learn chinese and korean while im at it :)
im more interested at the moment in getting better at reading japanese but hopefully this program can help with that too. :D

i think its understandable that this software, made by japanese developers, initially to be released in japan, should be made for those four languages and not french, german, spanish and italian... i think its probably unlikely it will be remade for those languages as well.

the game has been made so that the user can choose their own language and then choose the foreign language to learn... japanese -> korean, english -> japanese, etc...

All the advertisements I've seen around here in Tokyo market Talk Man as a kind of phrase translator rather than an education tool. It seems geared more towards someone traveling abroad than someone trying to learn another language. It does say it has over 3,000 phrases available, but I would keep in mind its intention if you plan to purchase.
