You'll all be familiar with Dr. Kawashima by now, right? Angular, disembodied head, constructed entirely from polygons? Can't miss him. Oh, hai Dr. Kawashima!
Anyway, the video above introduces us to his arch-rival in the rapidly expanding world of Nintendo non-games. Round of face and blue of hair, math genius Dr. Kageyama may look like a slightly different proposition to Dr. Kawashima, but his reassuring words and friendly tone makes one think of the Brain Training doc, and that in turn makes us want to relearn all of that long division we forgot in our late teens. Or until we get bored of doing so after, like, three minutes. Math ain't our thang, see. We am writers.
Any of you European folk plan to get your math on when Professor Kageyama's Maths Training launches next month?

I won't be buying it for one simple reason: It's maths!!! Bloody maths for Christ's sake! Why would anyone apart from sado-masochists want to do maths in their free time?

I've been waiting for a non-game for math that had quality in it. I kinda like the idea of being able to just brush up on basic arithmetic every so often.
