Worldwide release date and price
May 31st 2010 – BARCELONA
“Music on: Electronic Keyboard” for Nintendo DSiWareTM will be available for the European and Australian users on June 4th, and for the Americas on June 14th.
It is priced at only 200 Nintendo DSi PointsTM.
This application, first of the “Music on” series, will transform your Nintendo DSiTM in a complete electronic keyboard with a great variety of instruments and rhythms.
There have been a few rumors here and there that Epic Mickey has received an overhaul of sorts and that the game’s visual appearance has changed quite a bit since it was announced last October. The retooling apparently comes as a result of backlash from fans. Concept images were leaked prior to the title’s official reveal, but Epic Mickey’s in-game graphics disappointed fans as they failed to live up to the hype created by the impressive art.
A few weeks ago, the IGN Nintendo Voice Chat crew said that Junction Point Studios has been redeveloping certain aspects of the title, which backed up the initial speculation. Even though most of what has been said about Epic Mickey recently should be considered gossip for now, a confirmation may be on the horizon. E3 is a little over two weeks away, and rumor has it that Disney will be showcasing the updated build of the game at the event. Considering it’s the biggest gaming event of the year, it would be a wise choice to show off the game’s new look at the trade show.

Temperatures aren’t the only thing heating up this season as Nintendo celebrates the unofficial onset of summer with another round of red-hot game downloads. May has been an especially big month for the Nintendo DSiWare™ service, with notable recent releases such as Photo Dojo™, Frogger Returns and Metal Torrent™. This week’s additions keep the momentum going strong with awesome hand-held games like X-Scape™ and Hero of Sparta. X-Scape is developed by Q Games, the same team that created Trajectile™ and STARSHIP DEFENSE™. (Also, remember that Photo Dojo™ is available for zero Nintendo DSi Points™ through June 10. The game will require 200 Nintendo DSi Points for download as of June 11.) Of course, Wii™ owners have plenty to be excited about too: New offerings include a Ben 10 Alien Force adventure for the WiiWare™ service and the Virtual Console™ debut of a classic cowboy shooter from the Super NES™ era.
It’s also time to announce a new addition to the “Big Name Games” section of the WarioWare™: D.I.Y. series, which features downloadable microgames from some of the industry’s most talented figures. Created by Nintendo Power™ magazine staffer Steve Thomason, this week’s featured game, Revenge, puts an unusual spin on familiar characters from the Mushroom Kingdom. New “Big Name Games” will be added every Monday through July 26, all available to download for zero Nintendo DSi Points to anyone with broadband Internet access and a copy of either WarioWare: D.I.Y. for the Nintendo DS™ family of systems or WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase software for the WiiWare service. Visit the Nintendo Channel on your Wii system today to learn more about these games.
