DS Rumble Pack On Sale In Japan

The vibrations cartridge for the Nintendo DS has gone on sale in Japan. The cartridge, as you can see, fits in the GBA slot on the DS unit, and from what we have been told, provides a heck of a lot of rumble. Check it out.
The web page is in Japanese, but this is what the google translator was able to make out for us. Any help with a better translation?

The " DS vibrating cartridge " is the cartridge in order to  enjoy vibrating function in the DS series. As for vibrating function the software below is corresponding. * The DS vibrating cartridge corresponding title * マリオ & Louis - the G  RPG2 * メトロイドプライム pin ball (however, the DS vibrating cartridge bundled is done in the software.)  * Instant impression  パズループ.  It said somewhere there that it was selling for 1200 Yen.

It appears to be the same Rumble Pak that came bundled with Metroid Prime Pinball in the US and Japan. It provides very little rumble and is noisy as hell. They just updated the manual to say that it works with the DS Lite, though it sticks out 1cm (as do all GBA carts). It currently works with Mario & Luigi RPG 2, Metroid Pinball, and Shunkan Puzloop.

I am not buying it. Bored as hell and the Rumble Pack is not necessarily.

Metroid Pinball was actually quite fun with all the rumbling, but it worn out fast so I returned it and got Sonic Rush (which was dissapointing as well).

Yeah, the rumble pack kinda sucks. I was really hoping for more. If it didn't make so much noise, it'd be okay for what it is.
