The Japanese arcade scene is crazy. Here’s some more proof: there’s a multi-station training game that’s like the Brain Age for shooter games.

From FortNinety on the NeoGaf forums:

Basically, it’s a series of tests, presented in the form of short exercises to flex one’s various shump related skills, like dodging, hit box targeting, and the such. Kinda like Brain Age… but for shooters! Each game is packed with all sorts of references and in-jokes… one had you simply shooting at tokens, with the boss being some old sit-down, 80’s bar-style Space Invaders machines, pictured in the first snapshot. In the third is another game in which you have to shoot the garbage into the trash bin. I couldn’t really understand what was going on since it was heavy text-wise, at least the in-between rounds, analysis portion of the game.

Sounds pretty damn interesting. I wish the arcade scene would take off here in the US. I miss throwing down some quarters with friends.
