Following the huge success of its Brain Training franchise, Nintendo is to expand the series with a new game that comes bundled with a special DS camera add-on.
Face Training is a game where the object is to make your face become more attractive on-screen using the game's built-in technology.
Wired's Chris Kohler reports the game will allow players to use their face to play the game, with the overall aim being to make your face a but prettier through a regime of facial excercises.
The game is played using the bundled camera, which clips into the Game Boy Advance slot on the Nintendo DS and films your face as you follow the exercises.
In Japan, a so-called 'facening expert' named Fumiko Inudo has lent her name to the game as Nintendo bid to continue to appeal to the female demographic.
Face Training is due out in Japan on August 2. No UK release date has yet been announced.
