Man, the boxart (http://www.dsfanboy.com/tag/boxart/) for this Japanese baby-care game (or whatever you call that kind of thing) is totally cute. We didn't think there was a way to get jaded non-little-girl gamers like us interested in seeing screens of a baby game, but publisher Brain Toys has done just that for Konnichiwa Akachan (Hello Baby). If the whole game were to look like this, it would be a confirmed Cute Overload (http://cuteoverload.com/).
We have got to see screenshots right -- oh, no, it's Baby Pals (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2007/10/20/baby-pals-creeps-the-hell-out-of-us/). Oh, man, they got us to look at Baby Pals again. That's like the baby-game equivalent of the Rickroll (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/05/05/this-homebrew-release-is-never-going-to-let-you-down/). There hasn't been this much of a mismatch between boxart and a game's real appearance since Dragon Power (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2008/03/27/virtually-overlooked-dragon-power/).
