This is ののワ / Nonowa, of Idol Master, so called because her face resembles the “ののワ” kana. The chibi version of Haruka, usually drawn as a doodle, the precise details of her creation are obscure, but what is important is to view this page. That is all that is required.
Origin. You can often see Nonowa making appearances in various Idol Master MADs…

A pair of eroge for the iPhone have been released, and the videos below show them in action. They make good use of the touchscreen to spread legs and strip off clothing, so the DS had better watch out.
The games in question involve Yoshika of ストライクウィッチーズ / Strike Witches, and Yunocchi of ひだまりスケッチ×365 / Hidamari Sketch 365.

The second, of what could hopefully be a long line of unofficial Strike Witches shooting games, has been released. It is a vertically scrolling shoot ’em up in the modern style of Touhou and the like, and quite entertaining, so give it a try if you are so inclined. I have also included the first, which is a side scroller, more basic, but with more pantsu.

The latest and eighth DLC for idol manipulation game Idol Master looks set to inflame the proclivities of lolicon, allowing as it does the outfitting of the idols in kindergarten outfits (replete with frocks and yellow hats); since the youngest idol available is twelve, dressing them up as five-year-olds represents something of an interesting new choice of demographic for the title to reach out to. Expect to see Nico videos soon.

As you can see, the 3D version comes of looking like “a gang of cosplayers”, and there is little doubt which version will be selling, in Japan at least.

The Idol Master girls replace the cast of Persona 4 in this recreation of the signature tune “Pursuing My True Self”, certainly a MAD of impressive quality.
The music is great as usual with Shin Megami Tensei, and they are rendered rather convincingly into the distinctive style of the Persona series, complete with retro glasses, along with all the interface touches the series uses to great effect.

And Microsoft’s reply would be “no thanks”? Crooked former billionaire felon Horiemon (堀江貴文 / Takafumi Horie), disgraced former boss of Livedoor, has come out in an interview saying that Sony would be better of selling off its hardware business, including the PS3, and focusing on pursuing its true calling of producing blockbuster movies, going on to claim he was planning to buy Sony and make this so.
