To coincide with the official US game release today, Nintendo has launched a very slick Electroplankton site, complete with an in depth look at the game, it's creator, the sounds, and DJ Holland who performed at last year's E3 via the plankton. Extras include wallpapers, a screensaver, and an English manual PDF for any importers out there.2. That's one helluva website. I gather the game is actually on sale right now?

3. I'm in Canada(Mississauga) and I just bought it in the Nintendo online store a earlier this morning... Might as well grab it online, as EB Games can be slow :P

5. EB got theirs Monday, and ONLY PEOPLE WHO PRE-ORDERED it will get one. They got the memo Sunday that they won't be able to seel units for walk-ins because of this whole online-thing. But Nintendo was nice enough to ship units for their pre-orders. Now if only Microsoft would do that with their Xbox 360s....

6. YES, Nintendo Thought About Us Importers Out There..
Now I Can Understand What It's Saying..
Kinda Dissapointed Into The Site, It's Basically A Bad Carbon Copy Of The Japan Site ( http://electroplankton.com/ ), But Still Good Enough.. It Still Talks About Toshio Iwai, But Nooot Too Good Enough..

1. Can't wait for this gem myself..
I heard a rumour that the game is actually to be sold in EB Games stores in Canada, so I've held off on ordering it just yet. I'm also pretty annoyed with the fact that it doesn't come with the headphones like the Japanese version.. almost tempted to import because the boxart is sexier, too.
