It’s more or less exactly like it sounds. Japanese McDonalds is now developing software to use with the Nintendo DS in order to better train it’s employees. Just when you thought the Japanese couldn’t get any more Nintendo DS obsessed we find out about this.

The software, called “eSmart,” is going to cost 200 million yen to develop. Which is just over $2 Million dollars. All of this in an effort to cut down training time and costs.

Which begs the bigger question, how long does it actually take to train a new McDonald’s employee? Apparently long enough to so justify spending $2 million dollars on some software. Either way my chicken sandwiches always seem to have mayo on them when I always ask for none.
