Good question. I did a quick google and found this:

It's a pretty in-depth review. It says you only need one card, which is nice.

Confirmed we will be getting this in before long - working on logistics right now. If people can give us an idea of what the demand is, we can better gauge how many to bring in.

Thanks!

If it's the normal $35 DS Game I'll definitly be getting one of these!

I'd like one, but only if it's not much more than a regular DS game. It's a fairly simple game which I think would be a fun diversion, but I'm not sure I'm ready to go for it at much more than $30-$35.

These will likely end up being quite a bit higher than $35, sorry. Twice that may be more realistic.

It's an import. We're going to try to bring in about 10 copies for people who really want it.

I saw a used copy selling for about $40 before shipping in the UK. You may want to keep your eye out for something like that if you really want one.

If these are going to be in the $50-60 range can you give a heads up as to when you would be expecting so that we can save up?

We're happy to announce that we have gotten these in at less than we thought they would end up costing, so our price is $55.95.

I believe I've read elsewhere but ds games are region free yes?

Very cool! Oooh, pay day can't come fast enough. I might just have to get one of these.

They are region free, unless you get Chinese DS games which only work in China.

Oh Boy just got mine today! I have to admit I got goose bumps when I fired it up and heard the theme song blarring out of my DS. To me the cartoon graphic are perfectly fine. There are actually snapshot pictures on the 'cards' the game play is obviously simplistic and merely a diversion which to me makes it great for fun at home and work it's nice to have a game that you can pop on have some fun for a few minutes the shut down. There is an adventure mode which gives it levels and boards and power ups which keeps it interesting. Haven't had a chance to do multi-player yet or unlock other mini game modes.Very cool all around.

Do you just pick cards and it compares them with the computers? Is there some sort of strategy or skill involved or is it just luck?
