Reading Japanese Literary Works with Nintendo DS

I heard the video game software “Ichido ha yondeokitai nihon bungaku hyakusen” (“the 100 Works of Japanese Literature that You Have to Read Once”) of Nintendo DS. It is a collection of famous Japanese literary works in the Meiji, Taisho and Showa period. With Nintendo DS we can read Ryunosuke Akutagawa's “Rashomon”, Sosuke Natsume's “Bocchan”, Ogai Mori's “Maihime”, for example. Besides, we can chage the size of letters or BGM and read its outline. The price is about 4,000 yen. What do you think of it? I agreed to this software. Certainly, I feel that we will have a poor eyesight if we always watch a liquid crystal display. But we can control the time to use it. Also, there are some good points of it. First, this software records 100 literary works. It is convenient to carry and we can read it easily while we wait for the next train. Second, everyone including children or old people can read it. Even if you have no time to go to library, this software doesn't need it. And, it might be easy than collecting books. Finally, it goes with times. Recently, some junior high school have started the attempt to study English words with Nintendo DS in Japan. Young people read novels with cellular phone. If “the collection of good old Japanese picture books” or “the collection of literary works in the textbooks” are released, I want to buy them.
