Who would have guessed that our little witch-hunting game, Doki Doki Majo Shinpan, would explode like this? Now it's a ridiculously blatant preorder bonus offered at selected retailers. What goes perfectly with adventure games about witches? That's right: phone cards. It was so obvious that we're surprised we didn't think of it ourselves.
We're starting to wonder if the witches are even bad witches -- they look kinda sweet (and top heavy) to us. Maybe the hero is hunting them to see who he should take to the beach. Got a "witch crest?" Great, grab your bikini and get in the van!

DS Fanboy needs better access to Japanese speakers. The phone card is old info, even on your own site. The image in a recent post (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2007/06/12/doki-majo-ads-to-make-shoppers-uncomfortable-in-public/) says it's a phone card (right under where it says "BOOBIES! BOOBIES!").

NeverSage -
Doki doki majo shinpan = Heartbeat Witch Judgment
Doki doki = heartbeat (lit. a heart going "ba-thump ba-thump")
majo = witch (or magic user)
shinpan = judgment

The character's a teenage boy. He's still in high school.
Obviously he wants a girlfriend with bouncy boobs who'll let him pass his exams without cram school.
She'll get her little wand out and go "Passus!" Hogwarts style.
