The mere thought of a new D3 Publisher game tends to cause panic in that small group of people who update videogame databases either professionally or as a hobby. One always has to wonder, will the new game's name be too long to fit?
D3 has gotten pretty darn close to breaking databases in the past, but with its latest game, it may have crossed the barrier. Take a deep breath, and try reading this: Simple DS Series Vol.14 The Jidousha Kyoushuujo DS -- Gendoukitsuki Jidousha, Futsuu Jidou Nirin, Oogata Jidou Nirin, Futsuu Jidousha, Fusuu Jidousha Nishuu, Chuugata Jidousha, Oogata Jidousha, Oogata Jidousha Nishuu, Oogata Tokuchuu Jidousha, Kenbiki.
That's the full name for D3's latest DS title, D3's latest simple series budget title, and the DS's latest non-game, all of which can be yours on 5/31 (only if you import, of course). A translation of the first part of the name should give a hint as to the content: Simple DS Series Vol.13: The Vehicle Learning DS.
Yes, the system that already has right brain trainers, left brain trainers, cooking trainers, walking trainers, language trainers, and even two different types of manner trainers (one for business manners, one for standard social manners), now has its first driving tutorial. Meant for those studying away for Japan's tough license tests, this edutainment title includes 4,000 questions pulled from a test preparation book published by Natsume Publishing. Outside of questions and answers, the game also includes a 2D overhead driving mode which allows you to practice the rules of the road a bit more directly (although we'd suggest that you try out the real 3D type of driving before actually taking your license test; do be sure and bring your DS with you to the test, though, as your middle-aged tester probably has one!).
As for all that junk that makes up the rest of the name, those are just the different types of license tests that are included in the game. You'll find everything from standard cars to motorcycles. The fact that D3 decided to put this extraneous information in the title suggests that they're either out to drive database masters to insanity, or they're planning another volume with an entirely different set of cars and an even longer name. .
