That's really cool. I haven't played any LocoRoco games, but the art looks really stylized and just all around awesome, especially for a kid's room.

Seeing this I can't help but wonder how much more creative he might grow up to be compared to living in a room with just regular old white walls.

I'm just saying that a kid who is around colorful playful things is probably more likely to grow up creatively influenced than a kid who lives in a plain boring area. Of course most of this will factor into things like toys, what he sees on TV (if he sees TV at all), what books he reads, etc.

It just seems like giving a kid a bright and colorful place to live in would benefit him much more than giving him a dull white room devoid of personality (you know, until he grows up and gets stuff to hang on the walls).

It's not much different from letting employees decorate their office cubicle.

I don't think the parents even knew about this, the article says they where away so it was probably as surprise.

I wish somebody broke into my house while I was gone and painted my walls with a Patapon theme.

I'm loving this on so many levels, not the least of which being that it gives me affirmation; I'm not the only nutjob parent in this world.

I did the same thing for my daughter in the last house we lived in. As a baby she used to sit on my knee, completely entranced as I played Locoroco. She even learned a couple of the songs.

It was to her delight that I decorated her room in bright primary colours, Locoroco's of every shape, colour and size and flower shaped lighting just to set it all off.

It was a far cry from this in terms of quality and scale, but four years on she still remembers it fondly.

Now I will have the LocoRoco theme song stuck in my head for the rest of the day.

I love that design. We are currently trying to figure out how to paint the nursery for our upcoming son, and honestly I wish I had the talent to do something like that. It's amazing.

That's an awfully odd interpretation.

They were away -- because they were adopting their child from India -- while it was done. There's no implication that it was a surprise, so that's your own inference. People in Marin County (my own inference) have alarm systems.

Further, Dad works for PIXAR, which is just about the coolest job a kid's Dad could have, short of being Ben and/or Jerry.

So, LocoRoco room + adoption + Pixar = cool as funk parents.
