This game out on Dec 5 I think.. and I just picked it up today! Well, more like I bought it for a friend here in Osaka and am currently playing it thru while he's at work.. hehehehe..
controls are pretty tight, they come pretty natural and after 15min feel quite comfortable. The wall climbing ability is amazingly effective and combined with the double jump creates HUGE possibilties. Sometimes u ever surprise urself on how far you can get with the combo Jump-Dash-Jump, Jump-Jump-Dash etc..
The whole game has a mad oldskool feel, from the style of monsters to the background music.. I:m having fun with it! easy to pick up (although a lil frustrating at times with the difficulty of some parts) and a good laugh at the english voice acting. I was surprised to see options for the Eng dub here in Japan. I'm deffinately gonna pick myself a copy before I leave..
The use of special magic seems kinda thrown in.. there weren't too many times when it was actually NEEDED.. it was more just for show. If anything, its more of a time saver if you just cant be screwed killing everything in the area manually.
That cape is so mezmerising. I can watch it alllll night.. MRk MRK n FnK Mz

..found a new move today.. it's actually probably in the manual but seeing as i don't read any Japanese hehe.. kinda useless..!
double jump and shiruken at the right time does a mad Special with multiple shiruken thrown. Stuns surrounding enemies.. very handy in the later stages.MRk MRK n FnK Mz

If you want Jap cds, let me warn you now: they are more expensive than the imports over here!
You would probably be better off just importing them from Japan thru a local dealer in Bris. It costs around AU$50 for a new CD here. Plus postage for me to send to Bris, hrmmm..
If you only want a few CDs, I think you're better off importing yourself.
