More info on Anan
NamcoBandai shed some light on its collaboration with Magazine House, the Japanese publisher behind anan, which is a monthly periodical aimed at the Japanese female public. While we already knew this was coming, however now we have more information on the title courtesy of Joystiq's man in Japan Jonti Davies. Just like the magazine itself, the soon-to-be anan-licensed DS game (which is translated as anan Supervision: Quick Female Power Boost) is set up to help women achieve what they perceive to be their ultimate selves.The end product will offer up 50 types of "ideal woman" and encourages self-reinvention through its three-month training course. How does the game do this, you ask? Well, it teaches qualities such as strength, cuteness and beauty through a series of daily lessons. The game is currently set for release this Summer.

Japanese women's mag turns to gaming
We can see it now: Cosmo DS, complete with thousands of relationship quizzes, hairstyle tips, and healthy recipes. Could it work? Maybe not here, unfortunately (this blogger might, y'know, rent it), but a women's magazine in Japan is gonna give it a go. Anan, a fashion-and-more mag, has hooked up with Namco Bandai to produce the latest female-friendly craze (at least, they hope) in Japan. A few screens have surfaced -- hit the jump to give 'em a peep.
