This week the original Donkey Konga music title and its Conga Drum controller will hit the shelves in Japan (link to game page). Until now, Nintendo had not mentioned an American or European release for the game. However, Nintendo has confirmed with Cube-Europe that it currently is working on a western version of the game.

We were told that 32 different songs are currently being selected for the American and European versions. The release date still remains unclear as it heavily depends on the music license required for all the different songs.
