Donkey Konga, so, I really am desperate to get my hands on, or slapping away at, this game. I was initially going to get it for my PAL console, but a change of heart means I might get it on both, due to wanting two sets of drums anyway, and being desperate old me. Therefore, I have a couple of questions if anyone here happens to know the answers to them...

1. I assume this is right, but a US pair of bongos will also work with a PAL console, right? And the other way round too? Yeah?

2. Has anyone got any exact release dates for both areas, both the US and the UK? I've heard August and September/October but I'm just checking?

Cheers, my fellow bongo-ers.

I'm p!ssed off because I thought Donkey Konga was already out in America, so I was gonna buy it while I'm over in the States in a few weeks.

Ah well, Spider-Man 2's coming at the end of the week, which I cannae wait for...

Yeah but the drums are included in the price in SR's deal. So if you order it from here you'll get both for £30ish, the price of your average game. And then there is always Donkey Konga 2/Donkey Kong Adventure machig.

Tell me thats not a good deal...

Yup, all peripherals are multi-region so to speak. Don't know the release dates myself, but I'm keeping an eye on this game as I may just like it.

I feel it'll be a waste of money for the drums though - they won't get much use after that game seeing as the next gen is round the corner...

The bongos should work on both consoles, and I think the release is 15th October. I does look pretty cool, but I don't know if i'll get it.
