With the trickle of DS training games from Japan well on the way to becoming an avalanche, it was always likely that publishers would push their products in increasingly novel ways. At least, that can be the only explanation behind this lovably bonkers advert for Shogakukan's kanji and math trainer Masu x Masu 2.
We haven't the faintest idea about how the creators linked breakdancing with kanji and math, but we do know this: we now very strongly believe that more games should be advertised with breakdancing. Don your helmet and windmill your way past the post break for a second trailer.

Huh, that guy in the maroon shirt dances just like me.
Wouldn't that be great if the DS got this much hype in the U.S.? I think of Japan as this magical wonderland where everyone has a DS and features like the Animal Crossing "Tag Mode" are actually useful.

Wow, it's probably a good thing American commercials aren't this awesome, because I'd never have any money. "Oh Snap! Did you see that synchronized windmill action, I've got to go buy at least 40 rolls of Brawny right now, that was badass."
