Item Condition

Game only: the cartridge in a protective holder, no box or manual. The photos are of the exact item you'll receive — look them over closely for its condition, packaging and details. Every cartridge's shell, label and board are checked for authenticity when it comes into the store, and it's tested before it's listed. It ships in a collector's bag or a hard plastic case.

Item Description

Ordering dinner in Rome, finding the train in Tokyo, asking for directions in Madrid: Just In Time Translations turns the Nintendo DS into a pocket phrasebook built for exactly those moments. Rather than a game in the usual sense, it is a portable language companion that teaches words and phrases for travel and everyday conversation across six languages: Spanish, French, Chinese, German, Japanese and Italian.

Phrases are organized around practical travel situations so you can jump straight to what you need, and built-in calculators convert Fahrenheit to Celsius and miles to kilometers for the moments a phrasebook alone can't cover. Each phrase comes with a phonetic pronunciation to help you say it yourself, or you can let the DS speak it aloud for you, which is handy when you want to hear how a sentence should sound before you try it. Mini-games help the vocabulary stick, turning practice into something a little more playful than flipping through a printed book.

Released by THQ in 2009, it belongs to the wave of practical software that made the DS more than a game machine, alongside brain trainers, cookbooks and language tools that took advantage of the system's portability and dual screens.

For a traveler, a student brushing up before a trip, or a collector rounding out the stranger corners of the DS library, it is a fun, useful piece of the system's history and a reminder of how far the handheld reached beyond games.
