Best import game of the year Award:

Kuru Kuru Kururin

The first time I played this game, I knew I had to import it. It’s truly a shame this game has never made it to North America. Fun and addictive, with an excellent 1 cartridge multiplayer setup…Kuru Kuru Kurin is a definite winner. – Billy Berghammer

Japan gets it, Europe gets it, America gets shafted. This game was so fun!!! My other choice would be the Japanese Advance GTA because it's not published by THQ so it DOES have a battery save. – Mike Sklens

I will never forgive NOA for not releasing it here in America. - Jonathan Metts

Did I spell that right? The only game I honestly imported was Mario Advance (and that was only because I needed something to play on my import GBA). That said, Kuru Kuru Kururin is the game that I regret not importing. I'm sure someone else will back me up on this. – David Trammell

Kuru Kuru Kururin. If you don't have this game for Game Boy Advance, than you need to get off your ass and get it. With no territory lockout, there's no reason for anyone stateside not to own this addictive title. – Rick Powers

I have no idea why I still haven't bought this game. In fact, I think I don't own as many games as most people on staff. Anyway, my brief experience against Billy was great, even if I didn't know about the speed-up feature until near the end... – Michael Cole

Not only does it feature the same great gameplay as the Japanese version, but now you can read about the plight of the duckycopter in English! – Colin Taibi
