Loco Roco to spread joy in Japanese mobile phones

Gamespot reports that the Sony Ericsson SO703i will be released in Japan preloaded with a mobile version of the beloved PSP “joy-fest” of a game, Loco Roco.

The SO703i is also known as the “smell’O’phone” due to a series of interchangeable fragranced “aroma sheet” faceplates, which smell when the user opens up the phone. Another thing about the phone worth mentioning is that the display of the phone utilises some of the technology already implemented in Sony’s Bravia HDTVs. The cellphone will be available on the NTT Docomo network.

Sony has yet to confirm if LocoRoco will also grace Sony Ericsson phones in Europe and the US. Moreover, there is still no word if a custom LocoRoco faceplate will be available. We’ve always wondered what that yellow blob of joy smelled like.
