Nintendo just announced that in cooperation with the opening of a retirement community in the "gated country club community" Stallion Mountain in Las Vegas, this weekend will be host to a Brain Age soiree of methuselan proportions. Says Gamasutra:

During the event, hundreds of seniors aged 55 and older will have an opportunity to play Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day, a game designed to keep people's minds active with mental workouts that incorporate the voice-command and touch-screen capabilities of Nintendo DS.

In addition, Nintendo noted that ten individuals will win a Nintendo DS Lite and a copy of Brain Age. The event will take place Saturday, July 15, between 11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. PDT.

So pack up grandma and tell her she's going to Vegas. Pick up an extra stylus or two because they're bound to be dropped and forgotten, buy the old girl a martini and peel out. Your family won't blame you for long. Eliza gauger
