Ubisoft to teach DS owners French and Spanish?

Ubisoft to teach DS owners French and Spanish?It looks like Ubisoft might be developing language training software for the Nintendo DS. Listings for My Spanish Coach and My French Coach appeared on GameFly for the Nintendo DS. Nintendo made a pretty penny with English Training and if Ubisoft can team up with a University or High School their “coach” games could be a success. Ubisoft also has another language title, My Word Coach for the DS and the Wii, which sounds like it could be a vocabulary teaching program. If you add these titles with Imagine Master Chef (a cooking title?) and Jam Sessions Ubisoft is on their way to becoming the biggest publisher of edutainment software for the Nintendo DS in North America.

    A Japanese-esq coach already exists for the Nintendo DS. My sister bought it while in Japan. I’m not sure who the maker of it is, but I know one does exist.

    My German Coach would be awesome. I am taking it at my school, but they are trying to cut the program to bring Mandarin Chinese in. MGC would be great for review for me ^.^

    I would love to see a My Japanese Coach, as would everyone else, however I do agree that there might be a bit of a wait time (Maybe late 2009?!) I plan on getting My French Coach, to see if I like it. I’m half french and am currently taking french in school. I’d love to use it to study.

    I would also like to see a Chinese version, Polish Version, even Arabic! If they made an arabic version we could use them as preliminary training for the troops. :- D

    Both French and Spanish Coach are great game. I think this series is a great opportunity to learn other languages as my school only offers French. I would appreciate many of the above languages to be made.

    I would LOVE to see “My Italian Coach” get made. It has been confirmed though that Ubisoft’s next installment will be “My Japanese Coach”… most online game websites are already talking about it.

    So far I have seen My Coach software for English (for Spanish speaking individuals), Spanish, French, Chinese (Mandarin) and Japanese. I have both the Spanish and the Japanese. An Italian one would be a great idea. I would really like to see an Irish one though-I love this language and would like to learn it and I think a My Irish Coach would help me make a step forward into learning it.

    Probably one of the hardest things anyone can do is try and learn something new. Congrats to anyone who tries.
