“Dr Kawashima will see you now.”
Released in 2005 for the Nintendo DS, Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain was an edutainment puzzle game, developed by Nintendo, inspired by Professor Ryuta Kawashima of Tohoku University and his work on neuroscience. It was a great way of keeping one’s brain healthy and now its music can live on thanks to 14 tracks being added to the Nintendo Music app.
Of the 14 tracks added, 35 minutes are needed to listen to the complete playlist, with 7 of those tracks able to be extended. As for which tracks made it in, we have the complete list here:
