Nintendo's hot Touch Generations lineup of games and non-games will be expanding into new territory over in Japan later this year. The latest from the company that brought us million sellers like Brain Age and Common Knowledge Trainer is Ganbaru Watashi no Kakei Diary. We hereby unofficially westernize the name as "My Household Budget Diary."
As suggested by the name, this new non-game promises to assist in planning a household budget. You use the stylus to directly input costs for eighteen areas of your life, including food, fashion and entertainment. The software helps you analyze your spending habits through monthly comparison charts. Also included is a mode that helps when planning for a loan.
Obviously, a title designed for a crowd outside of the millions who picked up New Super Mario Bros. And in case you were wondering, it's not the first of its kind. Last December, Bandai Namco released its own budgeting app for the DS, Dokodemo Raku Raku Kakeibo.
Nintendo's take on household planning will hit Japan on 7/12 at a price of 3800 yen.
