Tiny Diggers – An iPad Construction Truck Game for Kids Age 2-5

I guess I’m not too surprised to see that Electroplankton has slipped off the face of the earth, relegated after not a year on the shelf to people asking hundreds of dollars for a copy on eBay. However, if I’d known Nintendo would stop making the game so soon, I might have picked up a copy when it was showing up used at Gamestop. Both the retailers linked to the official website, Circuit City and Toys ‘R’ Us, play dumb when you click through to them, and Amazon and Target’s websites both simply say it’s out of stock, though you can pay way too much for it in an Amazon auction, if anyone trusts those.

Initially Nintendo was only making this available online via a couple of retailers, I’m guessing it was because they didn’t think it would achieve commercial success. Looks like we’ll never know if it would have if they’d advertised. I was considering picking this up as a gift for someone I though might find it pretty peachy. Did anyone manage to grab this title while it lasted? What did you think?
