Amazon dates, prices maraca attachments for Samba de Amigo

It would seem the final maraca attachments for Samba de Amigo on the Wii have been leaked over at Amazon (you can catch an eyeful above, obviously). For those of you who've been following the title, you already caught a glimpse of the earlier version. We guess those were just prototypes. Personally, we dig the red.

Amazon has a date on these for September 23rd, along with a price of $14.99, should you need that extra pair for some multiplayer action. Obviously, the game will release in a bundled form for those of you that absolutely need these hunks of plastic with your game.

These things are just lame. Really? Maracas? The attachments are completely out of hand already, but seriously Nintendo? Maracas?

Oh wow. I never got a first before. First First.

........ where do you guys get this idea that Nintendo made these? It's made by SEGA.

Yea really man, chill out. It's not Nintendo doing anything, and if you seriously know anything about Sega games you'd know this is a nod to the Dreamcast version.

Also, last I checked, no one put a gun to your head to buy any of the attachments. I haven't bought the Wii Fit board or the Wii Zapper for instance, because I don't want them. See.. that was easy....

Btw, these look infinately better than the white ones. I like that they made these look a little more authentic than making it the typical "wii white".

I for one am really excited about this game.. though I thought it was supposed to come out already (the 19th). Does anyone know the new release date?

These ones are filled with beans and in my humble opinion look better than the orange ones. They have them at HMV so you can try them.

Yeah, yeah it's a gimmick....but who cares.
