Spotted this in the free apps section of the Japan iTunes App Store. It's not just one app, but 16 free apps which make up the face of Doraemon on your iPhone. Made by Yahoo! Japan, it's a promotion for the new Doraemon movie called "Nobita's Great Battle of the Mermaid King".

There are many small manga apps, which gives me something else to study, but also there's a calculator, Jan Ken Pon game, timer, date/time counter and battery info app.

J-List have Instructions for getting a free iTunes Japan account, whether you're in Japan or not.

The official site for the movie: http://doraeiga.com/2010/

    Kids in Japan these days now have iPhones? I am jealous.

    nice one! I can't believe you downloaded them all!
    because I'm such a lazy mofo, I thought I'd just have to wonder how they looked on an iPhone!
    Thanks for solving that one :)
