A typical Frenchman, yesterday
Are you sick of visiting France or Spain and being able to ask for little more than a large beer and “a hotel room for two please?”
If, like us, your French and Spanish skills cause you embarrassment and annoyance on holidays and business trips abroad, then fear no more, as Ubisoft is planning to release My Spanish Coach and My French Coach and vocab-trainer My Word Coach for Nintendo DS.
The three titles have yet to be ‘officially’ announced but have popped up on a number of US retail sites’ listings, but we expect to hear more from the Ubisoft PR event in Paris early next week.
Indeed, ideally we would like to be given a copy of My French Coach to use on the trip, as we really would like to be able to order something other than beer for breakfast.
You may remember that Nintendo in Japan is cashing-in with English Training. We imagine that we will see Ubisoft promoting the software in schools and colleges in addition to the usual videogame and ‘edutainment’ marketing channels.
US retailer have also listed two other titles called Imagine Master Chef and Jam Sessions for DS. Both of which are pretty much self-explanatory.
Expect more details and plenty more new Ubi announcements from Paris next Monday.

I second that Sora. I'd really like a japanese one so I can understand my anime and import games more. I'm sure Ubisoft will see the potential eventually.
Spanish and french would be good to learn though. Went to Ibiza last year and still got by while not knowing spanish, but its always better if you can communicate well in the local tongue..
