A newly released DS game in Japan focuses on telling you(the gamer) how you feel and what your emotions are. SEGA has created Heart Scan, a game that uses the DS' mic to tell you how you feel. It can also act as a sort of lie detector test, telling people what words they are nervous on saying. There is no word whether the game is going to ship overseas.

Its "sensibility technology" was codeveloped by Advanced Generation Interface Japan Inc. and SGI Japan, to monitor the moods of workers who answer phones and those making complaint calls, said AGI engineer Fumiaki Monma.

But developers warn against jumping to conclusions about someone's actions, such as infidelity, just because a voice sounds nervous.
