Japan has received some strange DS software when it comes to the "non-games" segment, including training in everything from foreign languages to your face, but this may just top them all. IGN reports on a newly announced game from Bandai Namco Japan called 99 Tears. The goal of the game is to make the player cry. No, seriously, don't leave yet. The plot of the game involves a fictional city where people have forgotten how to cry. As the protagonist you discover an aptly-named "Source of Tears" store. The store deals in sad stories and swift kicks to the groin. The game analyzes the player's personality and selects a story (from over 200 possibilities) that is most likely to make the player cry. Over the course of the game, you'll hear 99 of the stories, hence the title. Players are encouraged to read a story at the end of each day and have a good cry, which amounts to about 3 months of straight bawling. What could possibly be more fun than that? At the end of each story, there's a Q&A that helps the game determine what story to tell the next day. We can presume one of the questions is, "did you cry?" No word on a US release, and given the bizarre concept it's unlikely that there ever will be. Still this game does provide a nice look at the absolutely insane ideas that crop up when a system is owned by almost 20% of the population.

It liiives! In the latest issue of Weekly Famitsu, Sega announced that another spinoff of their wonderfully campy House of the Dead series, English of the Dead, is on its way to the Nintendo DS. The premise is simple: as with the series' last entry - the words-per-minute-building Typing of the Dead - a horde of zombies threatens to descend on you and tear you apart. Only the "hidden power of English" can fend them off. Japanese words appear on the top screen next to each zombie, along with a few letters of the English translation. Players use the bottom screen to write the English in its entirety, and they can also touch buttons to switch targets or get hints. Answer correctly, and the zombie will die. Gamers can also practice their listening: a slain zombie will scream the word you entered as it goes down. ("Vocabularyyyyyy!") The game mixes in some multiple choice and other types of questions throughout its six harrowing stages, and also includes a separate training mode for more leisurely practice. Robust settings allow players to set the difficulty of words (up to a pre-university level) and adjust how many letters are revealed. English of the Dead, which bears the endearing subtitle "Reanimation of English Skills, Zombie-style," is due out in Japan sometime this spring.

I'm sure there are weirder games out there (like those gay wrestler games) but these are just two of the new games coming out soon that I just thought were weird.
