Oeka Kids

[fredJ]

I moved this out of the Game Identification thread.

Oeka Kids: Anpanman to Oekaki Shiyou!! seems to have been sold with an accessory. I don't think I've ever seen that accessory. Anyone knows anything about it? Is it necessary for the game?

There is also another Oeka Kids game, "Oeka Kids: Anpanman no Hiragana Daisuki ".
Are they rare? Any info? Thanks.

wow, it's the THQ tablet 25 years in the past!

I've never seen this either, but I think the games are a bit more common.

very cool, Seen the games all the time, NEVER seen the accessory!

It's been mentioned once before.  I've never seen one in action, just in an article or two:

I know mednafen can emulate it...maybe others can too.  The hiragana training part is actually pretty cool, although I have no idea what the responsiveness is like with the actual hardware vs the emulator.  (also not sure it tracks movement vs drawing...I think that second article explains it, but I could be wrong...).  There's also a "spot the differences" game in it, which is pretty cool.

I eventually found one...
