The Bouncer release Local Toys R Us stores have posted Square's first domestic PS2 title, The Bouncer as having a January 2001 release. The Bouncer is still scheduled for a simultaneous North American and Japanese launch.

The Bouncer delayed... Despite recent news that The Bouncer would ship in Japan on December 21, Japanese sources now say that the Square-developed beat-em-up will be released Spring 2001. What does this mean for the supposed January North American release?
Random Quotation "Listen SquareSoft, I'll do anything, anything to get your games on the Gamecube.
