Instant makeover with Nintendo DS

Sega and cosmetics giant Shiseido have created a software that will allow women in Japan to use their Nintendo DS for a beauty makeover, AFP reports.

The product is known as Project Beauty. It uses a scanning device to feed digital images of the user's face into the DS. The software matches the face to one of four groups: cool, active, cute and feminine, and produces a suggested makeover. Project Beauty will be released in Japan in November.
