  • Taito Unveils Air Guitar for Mobile Phones

    Talk about Mega Games, wish we had seen this at TGS in Sept., Taito has announced it will release a motion sensitive music application for DoCoMo 904i-series handsets (D904i excluded) in December. Their so-called “Intuition Band” game also makes use of the built-in camera sensor and a/v output allowing ‘players’ to create their very own mobile music! It will apparently also do other instruments, such as drum tracks (not sure about vocals?), and the company will be offering a free trial version via the i-mode menu from early November.

    This looks like a blast and it could certainly be a popular offering for the wakamonos. We wonder how long it will be before someone releases the first CD made entirely on a mobile phone.!?!

    Thank the guys over at Infinita for the heads-up.. 8-)
