Pocket Gamer: My Japanese Coach Review

With its touchscreen and easy portability, the DS is a perfect system for a really good language-learning game. All it needs is some clearly-explained grammar lessons, arranged in a logical order, punctuated by a good mix of mini-games; a spaced repetition flashcard game for learning vocab; more and better grammar games tied to the new points in each lesson; and a more systematised approach to learning kanji (perhaps even tied in to a decent kanji textbook, such as Remembering the Kanji, or Basic Kanji). That would make a really good language learning game. Unfortunately, My Japanese Coach doesn't.
