Comments on ‘Sega hopes to score with homely Japanese women’

Looks like an ideal basis for a homebrew hack

Virtua Bukake, anyone?

I'm looking forward to:

Wii on my Face!

Mines the dirty mac!

from those photos 

Thumb Down

90% of it should be called "project airbrush"

aka

"you too could look great if every photo of you was airbrushed to oblivion like every sodding picture you see in the press".

Pic AT LAST!!!!

So we see the Ms Bees at last!

Always knew she was an Amine for Lester!

Every Little Princess's Dream? 

Bravo Sega and Shiseido. A Peach of an Application.

There's already a game out like this... 

It's called "face training" and is part of the "Adult's DS" series. Comes with a camera that goes in slot 2 and a stand for the DS + camera combo.

@Ian re. Amine 

Thumb Up

"Always knew she was an Amine for Lester!"

Is that like an Amiga, but smaller and faster and more powerful?

Having seen her Playmobile representation, I can believe that's the case.

But seriously folks, isn't this a bit sexist? Where are the facilities and advice for men? I've spent years worrying about the dark circles under my eyes and just can't get rid of them.

The only problem I see 

Is "hardcore" players will HATE this. You know the type... "I hate the wii. Its distroying gaming by making other people like games. Why is Cooking Mama not an FPS." I think there heads will explode over this one... Possibly a good thing.

Up shoot shoot shoot down shoot shoot 

Ulala was awesome.

That is all.

Heh 

it'll probably go down a bomb, Japanese (well I think it's that region in general) have a thing for those photo things where they put little pictures and drawings all over the photo. I can't remember what they're called.

@@Ian re. Amine

Nothing stopping boys from tarting themselves up if they like, besides I think the boy market is amply catered for.

Full body version? 

Happy

Surely there's more fun to be had with the full body version?!?!?!

@Frank 

You need a foundation with a slighly sparkly finish. And lots of uplifting cream at night.

Homely? 

Paris Hilton

Tsk tsk El Reg

Whilst I accept it's vital for a UK-based tech website to have colonial correspondents, nevertheless perhaps you could brief them on different definitions for words on this side of the pond.

'Homely' does not mean ugly in the UK, it means something more akin to caring and house-proud, even pleasant.

Paris because she isn't homely by either definition.

Oh, and she's gote my vote.

Homely means 'plain/unattractive' on both sides of the pond 

(But not ugly, I should point out. Just plain.)

That is all.

@AC 

They're called purikura ("print club").

Incidentally, you can fit sixteen people inside one of those things.

Which top-of-the-line graphics card should I buy?

I play Crysis and Half-Life 2-based games on a PC connected to a 50in Pioneer Kuro plasma, but my old GPU is starting to show it's age. What should I replace it with?
