More DS Witching Touching

Brian Ashcraft — Wed, 15 Apr 2009 05:00:00 MDT

This spring, SNK's witch touching series for the DS Doki Doki Majo Shinpan is getting another feely touchy title this summer with Doki Majo Plus.

The series has players search for a "witch mark" on various junior high students by utlizing the touch pen to probe. Doki Majo Plus uses the first title Doki Doki Majo Shinpan as its base, but adopts the "evolution system" of the second game, Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 2 Duo.

Doki Majo Plus has new characters, a new story and a new setting — the game takes place on a south island during vacation break.

First Doki Doki Majo Shinpan Duo Goods Hit

Brian Ashcraft — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 07:00:00 MDT

Later this month, SNK's school girl witch DS touching game Doki Doki Majo Shinpan Duo goes on sale in Japan. To commemorate the event, the first Duo goods have been going on sale, like these illustrated collectible phone cards. They're available individually for pre-order at various Akihabara retailers. Some of the phone cards are riskier than the others. (The maximum one is placed safely after the jump — maybe NSFW, you have been warned!) There's a gallery below if you are curious and the bum bouncing jubblie jubbling trailer above in case you've forgotten exactly what Doki Doki Majo Shinpan is — touching girls to see if they are witches. But, really, how could you forget something like this? Oh, and keep in mind: The pics below are samples, hence the word "SAMPLE."

Witch Touching DS Game Inspires Dirty PC Game

Brian Ashcraft — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 05:00:00 MDT

SNK DS title Doki Doki Majo Shinpan let players touch young witches via the DS's touch screen. Using the stylus you can jiggle the witch jubblies! Saucy stuff, but not pornography. Still, it seems to have inspired computer erotic game Majo Michi, which is also set against vaguely reminiscent story plots and character designs, but also lets players touch young witches. It also possible to do other things as well. Players use their mouse for touching — which isn't as lighthearted as the DS stylus. Then again, Majo Michi makes up for the discrepancy other ways, we guess.

This Doki Doki Majo Shinpan Duo Cover Is Not Correct

Brian Ashcraft — Mon, 12 May 2008 05:00:00 MDT

Something is missing. If those blue bars on the Doki Doki Majo Shinpan Duo are x-ray and make it possible to see through clothes, then yes, something is indeed missing. Somethings, rather. Also, note that the Doki Doki sequel is rated "CERO D" (17 and up) while the earlier game was rated only "CERO C" (15 and up). Infer what you like! Game's out July 31st.

Yet Another Girl Touching DS Game

Brian Ashcraft — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 04:00:19 MDT

Blame SNK and its witching touching game Doki Doki Majo Shinpan, because the floodgates have been opened. Wide. Saucy manga/anime To LOVEru is getting PSP and DS games this summer. To LOVEru follows a high school boy and an alien girl. Both the PSP and the DS games are rated 15 and up, but the DS version seems a tad riskier with its touching mini-games. Hit the jump for the inevitable Penguin pink pantsu poking that heals her injuries. 'Cause, you know.

The DS game is out this August in Japan, with the PSP game out in September.

Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 2 Offers Better Butt Touching

Brian Ashcraft — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 03:00:58 MDT

Was SNK satisfied with Doki Doki Majo Shinpan's schoolgal boob flicking? No, SNK was not. What about with the boy butt touching? No, SNK was not. So for the DS game's sequel, Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 2 Duo, the developer vamped things up. Yes, it added better butt touching (hello butt flicking!). This leaves us wonder: How will SNK ever top this innovation? We fear SNK might've shot its load prematurely with Duo. Please, think of the next sequel!

First Look At Witch Touching Game Sequel

Brian Ashcraft — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 07:00:14 MDT

You thought SNK would stop at only one witch touching game? You thought wrong! That's right, SNK's Akihabara branch brings us Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 2 Duo. That's right, we're once again witch hunting and poking boobs, but this time around there are twins and a red-headed chick with swords! From the looks of these SNK certainly seems to have turned up the risky channel on the erotic game dial. Screens below.

Dirty Doki Doki Manga Almost Sells Out

Brian Ashcraft — Tue, 22 Jan 2008 06:00:21 MST

That dirty Doki Doki Majo Shinpan manga we featured yesterday? Selling like hotcakes. Originally published in comic book Red Champion, the manga is based on the SNK Japan only DS game by the same name and is the work of Ken Yagami, who cut his teeth on erotic games and adult comics. The first volume of the Doki Majo comic has gotten good online reviews. It even apparently almost racked up an Akihabara sell out. Not sure about in Den-Den Town, though. Two things we sure about: 1). SNK should churn out more Doki Doki Majo Shinpan. 2). SNK will churn out more Doki Doki Majo Shinpan.

Doki Doki Majo Manga Out Dirties DS Game

Brian Ashcraft — Mon, 21 Jan 2008 03:00:18 MST

We're overdue, it's been too long. Time for a Doki Doki Majo Shinpan post! The naughty DS game that let players "touch" 13 year old witches wasn't nearly as dirty as it sounds. That's what the Doki Doki Majo manga is for! The comic version has been serialized, but now a book collection is on sale in Den-Den Town and Akihabara. It's not totally explicit, it's just rather slimy.

Gallery after the jump. Proceed with caution!

Doki Doki Majo Producer Dishes

Brian Ashcraft — Thu, 20 Sep 2007 09:40:15 MDT

What SNK used to be know for? Fighters and Metal Slug. Witch-touching adventure game Doki Doki Majo Shinpan has changed that. The title has been a sleeper hit. SNK isn't forsaking the fighters, but is branching out. This February, the Osaka-based developer opened an Akihabara development branch. Doki Doki Majo Shinpan was originally conceived as an adventure cell phone game, but later shifted to the DS and subsequently reworked. "I was inspired by the touch panel, and it was a good fit," says producer Yoshiyasu Matsushita.

The game was unveiled at last year's TGS and snowballed. Just before release, the game posted higher on the Amazon Japan charts than The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. The game has launched a line of products that range from pillows to coffee mugs. "The reaction really surprised me," Matsushita says. "I wasn't expecting that. I was trying to make an adventure game." What about a possible English localization? "I don't know if it would suit American or European tastes. The game is designed for Japanese players," says Matsushita. A DS Doki Doki Majo Shinpan sequel was announced today. Does that mean Doki Doki is a new series, and we can expect endless sequels? "I don't think about it," he says. "I'm just trying to make Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 2. Then we'll see how that does." Matsushita is keen on a Wii version, "I am interested in doing a Wii version, but right now, I am very busy with Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 2."

The sexual themes have raised some eyebrows, but Matsushita says he was never concerned what rating the game was going to get. "If you make something that's interesting," he says, "people will play it no matter what."

Doki Doki Mouse Pad Invites Suggestive Poking

Brian Ashcraft — Fri, 31 Aug 2007 11:00:15 MDT

Doki Doki Majo Shinpan mouse pads aren't only out, but available for some serious "testing." The SNK witch touching game hit DSes a while back and noteworthy for being the closest thing to an erotic game the DS has seen. And this mouse pad? Well, it has jubblies for you to rest your wrist (like mouse pads do). This Akihabara had a small sign which read in English:

Touch Free!

There was also a DS touch pen for, well, touching (poking?). A picture display guided along those who still didn't geddit. Like us.

This One Has Soccer Balls!

Brian Ashcraft — Thu, 26 Jul 2007 03:00:02 MDT

Think Doki Doki Majo Shinpan is the only girl touching DS game in town? Wrong! Upcoming title Kouenji Jyoshi Soccer 2, the DS sequel to the PS2 erotic game, apparently lets players touch young female soccer players. In it, you guide your school team to victory while trying to put your moves on the student body. The game is only 60 percent done, but when getting manhandled the female characters say things like "Teacher? Is there something on my clothes?" So smooth.

"No Plans to Localize Doki Doki Majo Shinpan"

Brian Ashcraft — Thu, 19 Jul 2007 06:40:37 MDT

Want to play SNK's sleeper hit Doki Doki Majo Shinpan? Start learning Japanese. Even though it's rated 15 years-old and up, the witch toucher has the distinction of being the DS's first "adult" title — complete with boob flicking. An SNK spokesperson told me today:

...this title is only for Japanese market. We do not have any plan for localize to the other versions.

A damn shame! I was looking forward to seeing how SNK would slip this one under the radar and get this on Western store shelves. Like I said, a damn shame.

Features Boy Butt Touching

Brian Ashcraft — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 07:00:10 MDT

As boring as the Doki Doki Majo Shinpan "Witch Check" is, know that it not only features boob flicking, but also tush touching. Players also get up close and personal with thirteen year-old Yuuma Mochizuki, who exclaims: "Hmm!? Witch!? That cannot be me...you see, I am a boy."

Yes, you are. A thirteen year-old boy.

Boy touching and all, the game seems to be a smash — SNK's biggest since, geez, I dunno... a long time! Well, a smash in nerd hubs like Den-Den Town and Akihabara, where the game has been selling out. No clue how it's doing in the rest of the country. Remember when SNK used to make fighting games? I don't!

Hit the jump for saucy sell out images.

Doki Doki Majo Shinpan Goods Rush

Michael McWhertor — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 20:40:37 MDT

SNK Playmore's inappropriate touching game is getting the useless trinkets ("goods") treatment with Doki Doki Majo Shinpan crap flying at us from all angles. Following the game's release to the delight of Japan's horniest creeps comes the t-shirt, the mouse pad, the cell phone strap, the mug and five types of phone cards. An art book and the already revealed CD soundtrack are also available.

The mouse pad is, of course, of the soft breast design, providing ample support for your wrist between the questionably legal boobs of one of the game's molestation candidates. The t-shirt reads "Touch! Catch! Witch!" and sports a dual-screened design for proudly displaying one's unfortunate game purchasing choices.

We have already put our orders in with Bashcraft, hoping that he'll secure at least one of each for his trip across the Pacific. Fingers crossed that Customs lets them pass!

Doki Doki Majo Shinpan Released to Humanity

Brian Ashcraft — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 04:00:56 MDT

The wait is over. SNK's witch touching DS game Doki Doki Majo Shinpan has hit Japanese store shelves, and a limited number of official Doki Doki Majo talisman and stickers were given to customers on drop-date. Inevitable clips of the the "Witch Check" have of course popped up online. As far as erotic games go, this seems tame —even somewhat dull. During the "Witch Check," 14 year-old cheerleader Maho Akai keeps saying things like "That's bad," "Please stop" or "Gross." At the end, the girl goes "I don't know! I am not a witch" and then starts breathing heavily. Well then!
