Amazon’s Countdown to Black Friday 2008 DS deal: Get a DS and get Personal Trainer: Cooking free

As you probably know, if you’ve been following along with Gamertell’s Black Friday 2008 coverage, Amazon has been doing a countdown to Black Friday 2008 in its video games section. Each day, there’s a different deal going on. Today’s (November 25, 2008) is sort of a “make your own DS bundle” day. If you buy the limited edition pink breast cancer ribbon DS or metallic silver DS for $129.99, you can get a free copy of Personal Trainer: Cooking. So you save $20.

Personal Trainer: Cooking is a Touch Generations DS game which is basically a virtual cookbook. The game will talk to you, it has video demonstrations, it can be navigated with voice commands and it keeps a shopping list of ingredients to buy. It also happens to have over 245 different recipes in there, more than an typical, traditional cookbook. In case you’re curious, the Nintendo Channel on the Wii had a downloadable demo of Personal Trainer: Cooking up when I checked on Monday (November 24, 2008 7pm CST). So if you have a Wii and access to the internet, you may be able to try a Personal Trainer: Cooking recipe demo.

I have to say that this most recent deal seems a bit, feminine. It seems like the sort of bundle I would purchase for my mom or aunt, and not for a friend. I guess it could also work as a gift for someone who’s moved out on their own for the first time as well.
