DS Gets Speech Analyzer

How are you? No, how are you really? Thanks to a sophisticated tech called "Sensibility Technology," upcoming DS non-game Kokoro Scan employs the handheld's mic and spiffy voice recognition software that can decipher if a person is truly happy, sad, stressed out, etc. Users can scan friends and fam as well. Taking its page from the Brain Age playbook, the game features the obligatory "Kokoro Age," which measures how well users can control their feelings while talking. The title also features relaxing mini-games like chucking bottles and plates. That's how I like to unwind! The game, which goes on sale this August, was developed by Japanese company AGI Inc. and Sega. Quick, somebody ask Sega what they really think of the recent Sonic games!
