Herpit (ハーピット)

Exciting fortune-telling for two (ふたりのときめき占い)

Released by Bandai these were a Game & Watch style LCD game that could do fortune-telling. Tomy had a simliar toy called the Tarot Star. ¥5,980

 

Everything I can find states Herpits were first released in 1983 but here is a Herpit from 1981 featuring Pino Pino of Creamy Mami fame. This predates the show by two years, as Pino Pino was released by Bandai first in 1981. Text on the box is as follows:

Pino Pino, a little friend from an outer planet, tells the luck on your precious day with horoscope, or shows your affinity with the boy friend judging from birthdays and bloodtypes of the two. You can play an exciting game with it as well.
