New Pokemon DS typing game info, first keyboard pictures
Learn to type with all your favourite Pokmon (though Pokmon you hate may be in there too)
First revealed during last years Nintendo Conference, Battle & Get! Pokémon Typing DS (Western title unannounced) is a typing tutor of sorts in which you battle and defeat Pokémon by typing. The game will be bundled with a licensed keyboard, sans numeric pad, which will interface with the game card via Bluetooth.
The exact dimensions of the keyboard are not yet known, but the picture below should give you a fair idea of the size.
According to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, the keyboard may also be used with other devices, however compatibility isnt guaranteed. An alternative would be Nintendos other licensed keyboard, the Logitech Cordless Keyboard for Wii, which is known to work with several devices in addition to the Wii.
The game will be out in Japan in April; releases in other regions have not yet been confirmed.
