DS Daily: Call me now

Yesterday, we showed you Let's Tarot, a tarot trainer/simulator, and mentioned its Rare-developed NES counterpart Taboo: the Sixth Sense. WordJong dispenses fortunes, which can either tell you your future or describe character traits about you in the wonderful mystically-generic fortune cookie style.

We figure that, for reasons we won't even bother making up, the DS has enough otherworldly power to support some other methods of divination. In real life, they're all consulted in earnest by some, treated with mocking amusement by others, but there's no doubt that any kind of paranormal phenomenon reproduced on the DS is For Entertainment Purposes Only.

What kind of virtual oracle would you like to see on the DS? Magic 8-Ball? Automatic writing? Or do you agree with Morrissey's suggestion, provided in the video above? What are ya waitin' fi'?

Finally, a spiritual successor to Taboo: the Sixth Sense

Do you know how embarrassing it is to have to get your fortune told by an NES game? We're terribly behind the times in that regard. We're afraid we might accidentally, through taking the game's advice, end up leaving our lives behind to join Color Me Badd or something.

That's why we're so pleased to see an updated tarot program for the DS. Of course, being the DS, Let's Tarot doesn't just perform a virtual tarot reading for you. Led by a Cooking Mama-esque medium, the program actually teaches you how to interpret the cards drawn, and teaches you the origins and meanings of the cards. It's Tarot Training, basically.

We don't want to get your hopes up, but we used our own mystical fortunetelling method to determine if this game was coming to the U.S., and it told us "yes" in no uncertain terms. But then we asked again and it said "My sources say no." There are none who can understand the wisdom of the ball.
