Siliconera reports: "Treasure had an extra few months to work on Bangai-O Spirits for North America. During that time they crafted eight new levels: YAMATO, The Earth, Move the Box, Which is Moved?, Bullet's Reach, The Face, Sabu, and Sessyu. These levels can be found in the Treasure's Best (first two), Puzzle Stages (next three), and Other Stages (final three). All of the stages in Bangai-O Spirits are split into four groups in North America opposed to just ROM stages and Custom levels like in the Japanese build. Just to be clear, the fourth group in the North American build is Custom."

VG247: D3Publisher of Europe just confirmed that Bangai-O Spirits will be released in Europe this August. The DS Treasure shooter will be priced at £24.99.
D3Publisher of America has picked up the distribution rights to both Puzzle Quest: Galactrix and Bangai-O Spirits.
The DS may be capable of connecting to Wi-Fi for cooperative play and data transfers over long distance, but the folks at Treasure have decided to take a markedly different approach to get players connected for Bangai-o, the upcoming DS remake of the classic N64 and Dreamcast shooter.
