What a load of twaddle.

Northerners speak oddly, that's the start and end of this conversation. They should speak the King's English.

Why do you think industry is suffering so badly in the North and growing steadily in the South?

What about people who are colour blind?
Or mute?
Or who can't even read?

What about the blind?

Or the dead?

Surely they are missing out on this Brain Training?

What about people with no brains

har har.

Last night saw Watchdog struggle to make a programme, having to resort to a new game of "clutching at straws"... As for the comment about needing to be posher, how insane, it's about how to pronounce words correctly. I'm sure my ****ney in-laws would struggle just as much if they started trotting out slang... Madness!

I'm calling Watchdog. MCV's world filter discriminates against the naming of people from the East End !:-D

I am naturally tone deaf....OMG.... Singstar is distriminating against me as I think I am singing correctly!

I am a white male and have no natural rhythm....OMG...Dance Dance Revelution is dicriming against me!

repeat ad infinitum

@5: lol, good point :)

New from Nintendo....

Dr Kawashima's Pronunciation Trainer - Northern Edition

Scouse, West Country and Welsh editions coming soon....

@Reythor- Not the dead. The last thing we need is Zombies with trained brains...

whats her problem. its not picking it up because the word is yellow and not yeller

I can see it now, "Tonight with Trevor MacDonald", cue theatrical drum roll as Dr. Kawashima is summoned to crisis talks with Nintendo the DJ who can't talk proper.

Another group of people looking for Victimhood status chasing the press for a shoulder to cry on.

Maybe the game should be retailed at a higher price point in these regions as it not only trains the brain but it also teaches elocution and pronunciation. Oh.. and it gives them something to winge about. Or what about region specific editions.... hotwiring against the clock for Liverpool (perfect for the touch screen) seems a good starter.

I'm a "Northerner", always have been and always will be. I bet most of the above comments about not being able to speak properly were made by "Southerners". Just because I live north of Watford doesn't mean we don't exist. Every country in the world has regional variations in speech so deal with it.

Well, I'm a Southerner, I have always lived in the South of England and the DS Brain Trainer doesn't recognise me, when I say BLUE, it is very annoying. Any ideas on how I can say Blue I've tried various ways!! Perhaps, I need a Japanese accent!

lol this is stupid, Voice recognition technology is a long way off being able to recognize thousands of the worlds accents.
If it takes pronouncing the word correctly then I don't think there is anything to lose. Just say things properly!!!
