Posted this a while back, but ad posters for Onna Jikara ("Woman Power") DS game have surfaced. It's being published by Bandai and branded with female magazine An An — think Japan's answer to Cosmopolitan. Kind of amazing that magazine like An An would put its name on a DS game. Wait, no. In DS-crazy Japan, that is not amazing. That is smart.

The game offers 54 types of women that players can aspire to be. Once they select the type they'd like to become, a tailor-made training program is developed. Gals take tests on their DSes and keep track of their progress. I'm sure people will buy this. An An readers, even.
