The original game in the series,''{{s|wikipedia|Kuru Kuru Kururin}}'' was first revealed at Space World 2000. The game released on Japan on March 21, 2001 and in Europe & Australia on June 22, 2001 as a Game Boy Advance launch title. The game did not officially release in North America until February 11, 2016 on [[Wii U]] [[Virtual Console]].
