(AFP) - Professor for Tohoku University's Institute of Development, Aging and Cancer, Ryuta Kawashima, poses for a photo as he shows various language versions of "brain-training" game software for Nintendo's DS portable video game console, at his laboratory in Sendai, Miyagi prefecture, northern Japan, December 2007. The smash-hit brain-training software, consisting of quizzes and other simple stimulation, is credited with bringing a new demographic to video-game machines as older people try to prevent senility.
