  The Nintendo 3DS has a camera. Two of them, in fact. One on the inner face and one facing outward. Project LovePlus for Nintendo 3DS uses the inner-facing camera to recognize your face and make sure your virtual girlfriend stays loyal to you.
  
  Famitsu reports that if someone else picks up your Project LovePlus game, your girl won’t recognize them, and say things like: “Who are you?” Konami are calling this feature the “Boyfriend Lock,” and say it’ll help players feel closer to their virtual girlfriends.
  
  Fascinating. This is another one of those innovations that’s sure to garner attention from Japanese art and media communities, the way the current versions of LovePlus have. For instance, LovePlus + on the DSi won two awards in 2010, for romance and excellence.
  
  The franchise’s contribution goes beyond just innovation, too. The dating-sim genre saw an 83% increase in market growth in 2009, owing largely to LovePlus. In case you missed the very first trailer Konami released for Project LovePlus for Nintendo 3DS, you can check it out here.

  You probably just delete the save data.

  Was talking about playing the game when it was previously used before, but okay.

  Interesting. This could be their solution to the used game market.

  The girl will ask a stranger who is not their boyfriend who they are? Can the stranger continue talking with her and get to know her too? and then they'll be close, and then there'll be a love triangle, and then it all becomes a tragedy? -cough-
