Patapon coming to the US?

Not too long ago we told you about a SCEJ’s upcoming rhythm game that features marching, spear-wielding eyeballs. This title, called Patapon, will be released in Japan this month, but we have yet to anything of release dates outside of Japan.

Siliconera’s sharp and beady eyes noticed that Gamefly has a listing for the title. Of course, this could end up being nothing, and there’s no release date listed, but it gives us hope. SCEJ did release Piyotama (meh) and LocoRoco (bleh) in the US, so I see no reason why we shouldn’t see this title later on.

If not, you may remember that I mentioned that all of the dialog and text we’ve seen so far is in English, which would make this an import friendly title.
