For those of you who have it, is it worth the money? Should I buy it?
It looks very good, and it comes out on my birthday, so I could ask for it.
Also, what's the Wi-Fi like?

Its fun for a week or so but then it gets old real fast. Especially with that demonic timer on the side.

That's the reason I never got Koroinpa, it just looks so short lived.

If you just try to complete the levels. There are only 65 in the game. But trying to get a golden cup on each level is pretty hard, frustrating and time consuming.

So....Eledees is coming to Europe in a bunch of days, and I'd like to know something more about it.
These comments are not so useful.
Anyone else got this game?
I'm interested in the puzzle-like design of the levels (this is what I understood).
Since I really suck at FPS, and can't stand the challenge against the weaker AI of any game, this may be the opportunity to fully enjoy this kind of games, as Eledees is quite different and it seems not to put the player into rooms filled with Imps and Cacodemons (and their fireballs).
For what I saw on the Internet, I'm gonna buy it, please talk about it!
slightly OT:
Mastering Kororinpa is a hard and long task, that's a kind of game which I think actually begins when you firstly complete them. I don't think games end when you unlock all the unlockables (or worse: the main unlockables).

I'm getting either this, pokemon ranger or diddy kong racing DS on Saturday. What one should I get?

Nice line-up to chose from.
Personally, I hope someone will come and clear my doubts about Eledees.
For Pokemon Ranger, my only interest is Manaphy, so I'm waiting past the summer and look for a pre-owned copy.
And about Diddy Kong Racing, looking at footage on the internet I had the feeling it's a bit different from MKDS, I don't know, if it needed tech-driving-skills as MKDS (or its 16 bit predecessors), I may end up buying it.

I think I might rent this game for a few days.

What's the level-swapping WFC thing like?
Oh, and Mendez, Koroinpa is fantastic. Ok, it's fairly short, but if you can pick it up for £20 (which you should be able to) it's the perfect price.

Actually, I think I probably will get koroinpa or eledees now, I have 29 DS games and 4 Wii games. Though I'll probably trade in a couple of those...

I don't know how release dates work for non-blockbuster titles.
Hell, this has to be available today, but an EB-Lames store which I phoned to, said that they're having it on June, 15th !!!!!!!!!!
I really think that this only happens in Italy and for big distribution stores. It happened the same with Hotel Dusk. I ended up buying on a small and private store during the "right" week.
But if EB-Thieves have so much money and importance to buy most of the copies, how the hell can I play this game TODAY????
AAAAAAGH!!
Tell me you saw this released in Europe so I can feel right to insult them every time I go there (yes, I do all the times, people working in these stores in my city are all but videogame experts).

In town today it was £40 everywhere and there was no mention of Wi-Fi anywhere on the box, maybe it was cut out here? :(
I just picked up DKR alone instead, I saw Kororinpa for £25 and thought about getting that too but I decided to leave it.

Thanks, I'm already used to the prices of third party titles. That's not a big problem.
So, you confirmed that it's out in Europe, if you ever hear about Italian EB-Fakes bombing, that's my fault.
Hate them!

I bought this today, just finished the tutorial levels and the first main level.
I love the physics! The story, however, is absolute gash.

I'm getting angrier as hours pass.
Today, in a store, I've been said that "the release deate has been delayed", and when I replied "but English friends got it!", this guy said "Release dates are different from region to region"; this makes no sense to me, so I found myself laughing in his face and leaving the shop.
Is it possible that Konami really plans different release dates inside the Euro zone?
I'm asking you to explain how is text inside the game. If there is a lot of text, or even speech wich may justify the delay.
Or maybe if it's like Nintendo 5 in 1 (5 languages, typical of Euro-PAL version of Nintendo games).
I really hate Italy. Help me giving a sense to my spite.
[EDIT...I don't want to double post]
Thanks everyone, we had to discover things by ourselves: find the game, buy one copy and try it out....
I'm posting my impressions as the game arrives from the UK for those who still are curious.
