Train your brains in minutes a day, or start right now by reading the updated facts on Brain Age: Train your brains in minutes a day.
Give your gray matter the workout that it needs to stay sharp, focused and young. Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day is inspired by a book that was written by Professor Ryuta Kawashima, a prominent Japanese neurologist. His theories revolve around keeping brains young by performing mental activities quickly.
Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day is a series of mini-games designed to give brains a workout. Activities include performing simple math problems, counting people going in and out of a house, drawing pictures on the touch screen and reading classic literature out loud.
When users start a new game, they will take a series of tests and get a score that shows how old their brains are. This number is called the "Brain Age." As they use the software over a series weeks and months, their mental acuity will improve and the Brain Age will drop, indicating a younger, healthier brain. Progress is charted in graph form.
Users can keep up to four save files on one game card. Sharing a game allows them to compare their results with those of family and friends. Users also can send a demo version of Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day to friends or compete with up to 16 players in a battle to see who can solve math problems the fastest.
A few of the activities in the game:
Syllable Count – Count the syllables in well-known phrases.
Reading Aloud – Read classic literature as fast as possible.
Stroop Test – Say the names of colors as they appear.
Word Memory – Memorize words that appear on screen.
Speed Counting – Count to 120 as fast as you can.
Connect Maze – Draw lines to connect letters and numbers in alphabetical and numeric order.
Calculation – Perform simple math problems quickly.
Head Count – Count people as they enter and exit a house.
Triangle Math – Solve math problems in a certain pattern.
Low to High – Memorize the position of numbers, then touch them in order from lowest to highest. ...by Published on March 16th, 2006 21:09

DSMultTouch 3:
Faster screen clearing code thanks to DragonMin, Joat, and LiraNuna.
memset(VRAM_A, 0, 98304) FTW!
Pressure Detection based on one line of Natrium’s “UnderPressureDemo“.
Also removed almost ALL sparse readings due to light touches.
TouchDetection = if((touchXY.py>0) && (pressure < 192))
Note, stylus has a pressure of around 140, and thumb around 40.
Two fingers give different results.
Pressure Indication circle thanks to Bresenham’s Algorithm and StoneCypher’s hint of its existence.
Better Interface.
Re-Wrote code completely without any while loops.
In normal touchscreen detection code, my code can be dropped in for global reporting of Dual and Single touch and all 3 points.
Simply copy DSMultiTouch.cpp to an NDSLib template project to compile. Comment out screenshot a fat driver unless you know where to get them. (Chism and DesktopMan/LiraNuna)

kotami, the console hacker behind the NEStation (NES styled after the PS2) and the Mini Sega MegaDrive/Genesis , is back again with a detailed re-creation of the original NES style on a Nintendo DS. (more pictures here)
His original post is in French, but I'll do my best to translates his thoughts on the project. He wanted to show of the design of the original NES controller when you open the DS up. It alse sports the simple style of the NES console on the outer shell.
He painted the top with a clear grey paint and the lower part of the DS in a dark grey to match that of the NES's base. It may seem simple, but it closely matches the overall style of the NES. Once opened, you can see the famous grey band and red lettering. The buttons were also colored carefully.
