and when its coming out here ?

 

[explodet]

I believe in Japan it's coming in the bundled and non-bundled variety.
So the bongos aren't necessarily free, as the non-bundled package will be cheaper.

 

[GDJustin]

I hope they offer a konga-less package. I have two sets, one for me, one for my GF, and that's all I really need/want. It'd be awesome to pick up jungle beat for $30 without a set of drums...

 

[BuddyC]

March for US, I believe.

JB will definately hit the US in non-bundle form.

I remember the buzz was that they wanted to sell DK:JB at full price without the Kongas, but then again, that was May. We'll have to wait and see, but personally, I really wouldn't be surprised to see both bundled and non-bundled forms (a la Sony's EyeToy games).

In Japan, it'll be 5800 Yen standalone and 6800 Yen with the Tarukongas. So, it's as if you're going to get Tarukongas for $9 or so. I'm not sure which set will be more abundant in Japan, probably standalone because the original Donkey Konga sold 450K there.

Damn, nearly half a million copies there? It's only at like a little over 100,000 in the US, isn't it? The Japanese love their music.. and drums.. and dancing.. and fruity things of that nature. Hell, I like it too!

If it comes with the bongos, +1 sales

If not, oh well I'll just sell my Gamecube

No offense but that's really starting to get old. :lol

110K, but that's in 5 weeks.

Nothing comes with a FREE anything.

my happy meal would like a word with you.

and yeah, i hope they don't try to sell jungle beat by itself for $50. particularly given how long it takes nintendo games to drop in price. i could go for another set of bongos.

 

[Deku Tree]

They should bundle Jungle Beat with the Konga for $60 in the US.
If they do it for JPN they should do it for the US too.
Any higher price and Nintendo is just begging for a bomb
(unless the controller works good too).

 

[border]

What is the difference between Jungle Beat and the game that's already out? New songs or a different playstyle or what?

 

[duderon]

Jungle Beat's a platformer.

 

[border]

And you control it with bongos? No option for standard control?

 

[duderon]

Not that i know of. Most people that have played it are hooked, though, for what it's worth

Sounds interesting enough.
