It's old but very good! Gives you a blue grid of japanese characters of which you must identify by voice.
When you can read a raw scanlation without twitching your eyes you've won the game.
Gah i forgot, there is Katakana, Kanji then Hiragana ( : :) i don't even know what is the popular manga choice

Save up money and go with a tour group. You won't need to know any language.
Or, buy a book and study. I've heard lots of praise about the Genki series, and the "minna no nihongo" book.

your missing the point here ... i want to actually learn the language

Rosetta Stone isn't bad so far (level 1 unit 3) although there are a few flaws.
1) It does not show how to write/draw hiragana and katakana.
2) By its very nature, it doesn't explain counter words http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_counter_word.

hiragana is used for particles, endings and some other things. katakana is used for foreign words. kanji is used for regular words.
as far as i know, the above is the norm.
