505 Games brings Kira Kira Pop Princess to Europe
Posted by Kerri on January 17th, 2008
Going with the recent spurt of ‘casual’ games under the marketing umbrella, 505 Games will be bringing Japanese game ‘Pinky Street Kira Kira Music Hour’ to European DS’s very soon.
Originally based on the highly collectible toy range in Japan (Pinky Street), the game has you play the role of young madam ‘Gaby’ on her search for notoriety, fame and a pair of new shoes, all around the city. I actually had a chance to play this game last year, and past all of the speaking that goes on, is a pretty solid rhythm game. You hold the DS vertically with the touch screen on your right and with an onscreen guitar, you strum away and somehow manage to dance the night away.

With collectable clothes, shoes and accessories, this is sure to go down nicely with the ‘Imagine’ and ‘Petz’ crowd and will most probably head straight into GAME’s Buy One Get One Free offer. However, if you still can’t stop spinning your way through Ouendan’s dance moves and aren’t afraid of your more feminine side, you should probably think about giving this one a try when it hits store shelfs on the 7th of March.

Man, Europe gets this game, and America doesn’t. I played the Japanese version and loved it, actually working my way through the Japanese sequel Kira Kira Music Night. I am such a girl.
