Fans of Doraemon will rejoice knowing that there is a new Doraemon-based game in town that uses the "takekoputa" as a navigation device. The control scheme goes one up on the Nintendo Wii as you are required to wear the takekoputa on your head, leaning in all four directions like a traditional D-pad to control Doraemon as he flies through the air. The game consists of a primary story mode, 10 minigames, and a free mode that enables you to explore beautiful Japan from the skies. This Japan-only game is powered by 4 batteries. Here's a little trivia: The word "takekoputa" is actually a combination of Japanese words that mean a flying helicopter contraption, but you guys already know that, don't you?
