While news about a touchable version of Love Plus is already running rampant through the internet, TK-Nation's Cassandra Khaw goes one step further and investigates exactly how this was accomplished.
Warning: Potentially Very Technical Data Ahead
Love Plus sure is getting alot of bizarre Valentines Day promotions.
A few days ago, Konami hired a bunch of girls in Japanese school uniforms to hand out chocolates to random men in the spirit of Valentine's Day.
I'm not sure if this will help sell the game, but it's a nice sentiment nontheless.
