Joystiq: Brain Training creator refuses millions in royalties
And their source:
PhysOrg: ‘Brain training’ Dr Kawashima has no time for games

Royalties from the brain training software for the Nintendo DS alone have reached 2.4 billion yen (22 million dollars), with 17 million titles sold worldwide since its debut in Japan in May 2005.

Under the rules of his employer, state-funded Tohoku University, Kawashima could take up to half the proceeds with the rest going to the school.

But Kawashima, married to a high-school classmate with four sons, is happy to live on his annual salary of around 11 million yen (100,000 dollars).

…Kawashima pours his portion of the royalties from his work into funding research. He has built a 300-million-yen laboratory at the university’s Institute of Development, Aging and Cancer where he works, and another lab worth 400 million yen is due to be completed in March.

Interesting o_o
