After I saw the commercial on TV I had to investigate the Personal Trainer Cooking video game for myself. Actually, Personal Trainer: Cooking isn’t really a video game at all, even though it was manufactured and developed by the folks at Nintendo.

Personal Trainer Cooking is like a cookbook that comes to life, complete with audio and video instructions. This is a great idea for those new to working in the kitchen or if you’re just interested in checking out some new recipes. You can learn how to make over 245 recipes from 30 different countries.

Most people have questions about how to do certain tasks in the kitchen (how to clean a fish, or cut up a special type of vegetable) and unfortunately don’t have easy access to a computer near the countertop! Cookbooks often omit crucial steps and can be clumsy to work with. The Nintendo DS Lite and Personal Trainer Cooking make it easier for you to work in the kitchen, view tutorials, and follow instructions all at the same time.

Here’s a video demonstration of how it all works:
