Cooking Navi goes high-end

by JC Fletcher { Apr 5th 2007 at 12:00PM }

Cooking Navi has been a smash in Japan, so it's hardly a surprise that the game would get a sequel. This particular sequel, however, is somewhat of a surprise. Shaberu! DS O-Ryouri Navi Marugoto Teikoku Hotel (Talking DS Cooking Navi Marugoto Teikoku Hotel) is a new version of the game containing recipes from the chefs who cook in the prestigious Japanese hotel.

We're thinking about picking up Koei's latest nongame, since we'd love to try some gourmet Japanese cuisine. But we have a concern: isn't Cooking Navi supposed to be about basic recipes and helping regular people make them? Seriously, look at those seven chefs on the box. This interactive cookbook has the potential to be the hardest game on the system.

What's Navi (fairy)'s name in Japan?

Because i keep thinking this game has something to do with Zelda, and it's starting to bother the hell out of me...

But playing this game would make me hungry for seafood, in all likelihood, it's just like watching food network, you'll gain pounds indirectly doing it...

UNI! Whenever Iron Chef is on my brother, sister, and I would keep saying that. Sea urchin is a delicacy she's always wanted. I've made myself so hungry....

It kind of reminds me of the poses on football games, as if they might blurt out 'Challenge!' at any given moment.
