Nicole Kidman Training Brain for Nintendo

Nicole Kidman and Nintendo Brain Age
Nintendo's 'Brain Age' series of games for their DS handheld has been a massive success in Japan. The games haven't done as well in the west despite some unusual efforts to get us playing. Nintendo is hoping to change that with with a little help from Aussie hottie Nicole Kidman who has signed on to promote the games.

The game series purports to keep your brain "young" by having you to play a series of headache-inducing mini-games. Each time you play, your supposed brain age is rated and tracked so you can see how much smarter (or stupider) you're getting as you train. Kidman, who turned 40 on June 20, certainly doesn't need any help looking young. And, by ditching Tom Cruise before he went completely and publicly insane, she seems to be doing fine between the ears too.
