The first of three videos that demonstrate all the wonderful possibilities that are contained within the iPhone version of Noby Noby Boy!
The wait’s been so long that it almost felt like it would never happen, but alas, that day is almost here. And it looks to be just whimsical as the PS3 original, yet is totally its own animal, which is a very good thing; console to iPhone ports are generally trainwrecks, with the virtually unplayable iPhone version of Katamari coming instantly to mind (though oddly enough, the iPhone treatment of Metal Gear Solid 4 is actually excellent).
Part one is simply a primer, part two shows all the odd little activities that should appeal to kindergartners and make it more of a “game” than the original, and part three touches upon its integration with the iPhone’s camera. More than anything, these videos demonstrate how any boardroom meeting would be far less tedious if puppets were involved.

Custom Noby Noby Boy and Katamari Damacy PSP-3000. I have no idea where this grainy image came from, but I spotted it in Fort90’s latest round-up of alternative gaming news/media. I wouldn’t mind owning this, though the (cute) faces and lines painted on the screen would make it hard to actually play games with the system.
[Update: Brandon, who posted the photos combo, pointed out in the comments that Katamari/NNB creator Keita Takahashi himself painted the PSP for a giveaway.]

Boing Boing Offworld’s holiday greeting, from Katamari Damacy/ Noby Noby Boy creator Keita Takahashi. It inspires my upcoming New Year’s resolution: to stop being jealous of Offworld.
Honestly, I feel lucky to live in a world that has Keita Takahashi in it. We <3 Takahashi.
