Sega creating surgery game for DS

It appears that one Osamu Tezuka license wasn't enough as they've acquired the license for Black Jack to keep Astro Boy company. In Black Jack, you play as Dr. Jotaro Honma, who can best be described as a medical mercenary, selling his talents to those who are willing to pay the most.

The operation takes place on the touch-screen, tasking the player with drawing shapes over manga panels to successfully complete the operation. Siliconera describes the system as being "sort of like Jet Set Radio's graffiti system except instead of turning the analog stick you draw patterns."

2. Trauma Center-beater? I'll be keeping my eye on this.

3. Mother Trucking awesome! I've always loved the original Manga series created by Osamu Tezuka. I hope Phoenix Wright and Trauma Center's new found fame in america will persuade Sega to release this game in an english speaking country. If not I'll have to import this just like Ouendan, and Jump Superstars.

4. This should have been a given from day one, but at least it's finally being made!

5. Looks a lot like Ouendan to me. Not that there's anything wrong with that. ;)
