Pokémon Typing DS to get new keyboard: Re-release scheduled for autumn

According to Famicom Plaza, Battle & Get! Pokémon Typing DS will be repackaged with a black keyboard in Japan this autumn.

Read more on Bulbanews
 
......any particular reason for a repackaging?

Other than that, sounds cool. After all, black is always much cooler!
 
Why should we give a shit...? It's not like it's going to be released outside Japan anyway... though it would be cool to learn Japanese
 
I may be wrong, but I think this was supposed to be an English Language course for the DS.

Kinda makes me wonder what that game's actually like.

Oh yeah I forgot it teaches Romanji -_-; If they do release it here they should make it so we can learn Kanji
 
I already have a big suspition that this game is not gonna be released in America, if it's already been released in Japan twice with minimal changes.
 
Wow, a black keyboard now?

Any particular reason why? Like any faults with the original white one?
 
This game should come out on PC also because of the keyboard. No offense but, this game sounds stupid.
 
Geez, what's the problem of you guys? If you don't find it interesting, you don't need to leave such comments.

I wanted to add this to the Bulbanews article, but I no longer have the right to edit articles or so:
The game has been pretty much sold out since it was released in April. Amazon.co.jp has been stating a couple dates for when they were supposed to get new stock, the latest says August 14.
It's probably not due to extreme high demand but probably more due to some kind of supply/manufacturing issue. At least that's my guess.
If it turns out to be true that they are rereleasing it with a different keyboard, the reason that makes most sense would be that they had trouble manufacturing the current keyboard and now perhaps have contracted another manufacturer.

We'll have to wait for the official announcement, since so far only this one blog of a small Japanese online shop is claiming this.
 
The only question is, why is it on the PC? I thought Nintendo games are exclusive only to their own systems, unless it's made by a different company like the CD-i games.

It's not on PC... it's on the DS.
I WANT THIS IN EUROPE, PLEASE!!!!
 
It appears Amazon.co.jp really did get the game back in stock this time, but who knows how long their new supply lasts. If Nintendo can supply more of the current version of the keyboard now, I wonder if and why they'd actually need to start selling the game with a different keyboard. o.o
 
No......

Edit: Amazon.co.jp is out of stock again, lol. They state August 26 as the restock date. o.o

Edit: Noe they state August 21 and offer it with a 19 % discount. o.o
