SPOnG endured watching Coronation Street for the first time in years last night for one reason – to catch our favourite Antipodean yummy mummy Hollywood divorcee Nicole Kidman flogging Nintendo’s new More Brain Training in the ad break.
Kidman, who has just turned 40, appears to have a 52-year-old brain in the ad and not be particularly clever.
However, her acting skills clearly cannot be doubted and she can’t be that daft, as she was reportedly paid $12 million to appear in a Chanel ad recently. Rest assured that SPOnG will be digging about in the coming days to find out how many dollars Nintendo has thrown at her to pimp More Brain Training.
Whatever, it was money well spent. The ad is bound to take the already massively successful brain-training series to even greater heights, which can only be A Good Thing, even if Nicole’s funny Stepford-Wife-ian giggle results in us feeling an odd mixture of guilty horniness and embarrassment.
Oh, and More Brain Training is finally out on Friday. Buy it for your partner, your wife, your mum or your gran and they'll soon be hopelessly addicted. It's wonderful.

Pleasant enough ad, that will strike more ground for the DS. I can see sales shooting up,. and more women swarming to invade Game.

Yeh! Mine too!
Perhaps Nintendo could design some DS software that improves basic map-reading skills, removes the desire to nag about housework and teaches better blow job techniques. Just suggestions... AND FERVENT WISHES!

I think this can be backed up by her decision to take the lead role in Moulin Rouge.
