Game Synopsis
«©NCSX»
The term
"common sense" implies a universal understanding
or knowledge that should be second nature to anyone
of average intelligence. Some examples: Walking when
the light is green, avoiding 20' boa constrictors,
wearing woolens when cold winds blow, eating when
hungry, washing when dirty, and so on and so forth.
To test the common sense of everyday Japanese folk,
Nintendo releases a common sense trainer which
features about 2000 questions that test the acumen
of players in such areas as manners,
economic principles, and other social intelligence
questions which don't hew to a cut and dry academic
background. Five genres of questions are featured
which test questions in quiz form as follows:
Propriety", "Wisdom", "Society", "Regulations", and
"Education". Within these main genres, categories of
questions range from "Physiology", "Geography", "Art",
"Language," and "Music".
For multiple player quiz action, up to
four players may link up to 1 NDS with the game and
see who can answer the questions the fastest. As
tests are taken, players view their development
and progress through the charting utility of the
software which keeps track of one's performance.
Please note this product is entirely in Japanese and
character input and entry may be made in kanji.
Nintendo recommends practicing and testing 10
minutes each day which is sufficient to build up
one's common sense if you've little to begin with.
After a test, players may review their answers and
look at what was answered wrong and learn what the
answer was along with a detailed explanation so
you'll know next time and have the common sense for every day usage.

» Questions consists of a question and 4 multiple
choices. Please note that the program is entirely in
kanji which limits its utility to kanji reading
players only. Tap on the right answer and a red
circle pops up. Answer wrong and an "X" shows. Each question
is given 60 seconds to answer. After each series
of questions, your scoring position is shown on a bell
curve. If you score a 50/80, your position on the
bell curve will be squarely in the middle which is
where most people range.
