richard recently bought me cooking mama for the nintendo ds. it is no less embarrassing to play in public than phoenix wright ace attorney was. at least with phoenix i could turn down the volume so people couldn't hear the cheesy music and random legalese. with this game, which i have to admit is really fun, i have to frenetically cut and flip and chop food with the stylus by tapping, tapping, tapping on the screen as fast as i can. not really something you can subtly do on the crowded train into london.
my biggest issue with cooking mama is that i can't use the vegetable peeler. i had richard try it out to see if he was more successful and he seemed to be. this is ironic, since i have trouble with peelers in real life too. i have always blamed the fact that i am left handed. anyway, in this game, i have to avoid all foods that have peeled vegetables in them.
