The game was initially announced at Nintendo's 2008 Fall Conference in Japan and was later shown off during the 2009 E3 expo in June. Since then, no mention of the title has been made. Now, however, Nintendo Company Ltd. of Japan has confirmed that the game has today launched in the region - as a WiiWare title.

The game appears to have made a smooth transition over to WiiWare: details confirmed by the game's E3 2009 fact sheet still stand true. However, the game will now cost just 1000 Nintendo Points (£7, $10) rather than being a full-price retail title.

There is no word yet on an international release, although a financial statement released by Nintendo Company Ltd. earlier this year confirmed that Nintendo of America were planning on releasing the title in North America. The game was not listed for release by Nintendo of Europe, who have yet to comment.
