[B]We don't normally talk about new games on these pages unless they have a novel twist. And yess we have seen Guitar Hero peripherals for the DS. So indulge me when I show off this intersting little product that will teach you piano basics on your Nintendo handheld.[/B]

Called [I]Easy Piano[/I], the game comes with a 13-note full octave keyboard and comes with 36 songs ranging from pop to classical. It started shipping last week from Valcon Games and is being sold in Wal-Mart, Toys 'R Us and on Amazon.com for $39.99.

Players can learn the piano by playing mini-games or choose from 10 actual piano lessons. The game also has a record mode where players can save any 3-minute composition.

If your parents insist on you taking piano lessons, then see if you can get this to assist with your studies.
