After the intro there are a few options.

The first bubble seems to be gameplay footage.

Teh second buble seems to be other gameplay

The third bubble shows people playing it together with some interesting vids.

The fourth bubble is an interview and a neet concept video. Click right above the middle blue writing to see the video very interesting.

The sixth bubble is more gameplay I believe.

Check out the fourth video at least.

just saw it today, and all I can say is that this is the direction games need to be heading into... I see more games on the DS are 50X more creative than system games... one more reason why I am a proud DS owner

is it announced that this WILL come to america?

Click on the fourth bubble on the top, and then from there, click the third link and watch the video. Now that art is very beuatiful.

both my sisters are proffessional artists, and from what I know and have seen, this is good stuff


note: alot of people will disagree with me, but Nintendogs is a very creative game also http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/adgj/index.html

looks very interesting....

From IGN's news story about it:

Originally Posted by IGN.com Electro Plankton is being produced by Japanese contemporary musician Toshio Iwai, designer of SimTunes as well as other crazy interactive music devices, for release through Nintendo. The game is being referred to as a "Touchable Media Art" game. Electro Plankton places players in a water-based world. Within that world there exists ten types of "electric plankton" creatures. These creatures react to your touch and voice. Based on your touches and voice inputs, the game will output different video and audio patterns, modifying your voice with a variety of effects. This game seems to be designed for all players, from veterans to newbies. Game fanatics will find bonuses like classic NES music, with the game supposedly including the theme from Super Mario Bros. and other titles. You won't have to even play the game to enjoy it, as the included Audience Mode outputs endlessly changing audio automatically with no player input. Definitely something we'll have to see for ourselves in order to fully appreciate.

Looks cool. the last bubble has some nice downloadable Desktop Images.

While it looks pretty I'm still left feeling like it's yet another puzzle like game. For me the DS is quickly becoming a puzzleplayers system. My wife loves it!

yeah,.... oddly it seems all my friends can't keep their wives/girlfriends away from the DS... even my sister (whos 25) keeps asking me if she can play around with the DS...

Posted that article there. The NES music sounds cool though.

this definitely helps pave the way for interactive electronic art.

Man this is SO TRUE!!

My girlfriend who doesn't play console games because they're "to hard" plays my DS all the time. She played Wario Touched last night for the 1st time and scored like a 50 on the Jimmy charecter.

interesting note: my sisters and I are actually trying to pull art into video games. Both Art Indusrty wise and Game Industry wise... my sisters and I have a few huge projects in the works, and one work in proggress at the moment...

I hate to say it, but it looks boring and simplistic... I don't think it's that original...

:?

well then all I can say is wait till it's released and play for yourself. to the majority of the public, it will be hard to accept this game, but in the underground market it will most likely do very well...

Is this coming to the US?

I read on Jan issue of Nintendo Power that the game would only be available through Nintendo.com store in January but I just saw it on ebgames.com

Yeah, it popped up on Amazon/TRU this morning:

You must buy Electoplankton. That is all.

Seriosuly, though, it is just awsome. If you are at all into the non-game games or just software toys or music, pick this one up. It's just great. :-D
