Topic: Kururin Squash Webpage Live

Crazy spinning puzzle action is coming to a Japanese GameCube near you this October.  Oh and there's a mini-site with all the goodies.

Nintendo and Eighting's wacky spinning birds are back for their first outing on Nintendo GameCube which looks to have multiplayer and GBA connectivity features.  In anticipation of this hot October release, NCL has put up a bit of a webpage about the game. There are Heririn of all sorts with flamethrowers, paddles, and boxing gloves, and judging by some of the screens, you might just need them since there are some pretty major boss-looking characters too.  Multiplayer screens show off both battle and race modes, so get on over there and check it out!

Why hasn't Nintendo brought these games to North America yet?  I'm aware the first game's initials were KKK but that's a pretty stupid reason.  What's stopping them from changing the name?

I'm glad this is coming to the Cube though I would like to know why it took so long.  Nintendo seems to be inexcusably slow when it comes to bringing popular GBA series to the Cube.  Advance Wars and Fire Emblem for example are just now being developed for the Cube and Golden Sun has yet to be brought over.  Considering how well these games sold on the GBA wouldn't it be a high priority to bring them to the struggling Cube?

Kururin owns. One of my friends was totally hooked on it. Funny enough it was the same friend who told me when I got a Cube: "Why don't you get a real console, like a PS2?"...
This game has the potential to be one of the greatest sleeper hits* on the system. Hehe, Kururin multiplayer deathmatch...

*= Kururin GBA apparently didn't sell. I got it for a tenner from an otherwise expensive store (they had tons of copies lying around in their "this didn't sell" corner). Okay, so the same store had an overstock on SSBM...

Hey KDR, did the sequel come out in Europe?  I need to get my hands on Kururin Paradise.
