2DBoy’s World of Goo has been released in Japan today, on WiiWare, as “Planet of Goo.” It’s even got it’s own page on Nintendo’s website. Okay, now that is just really cool – congratulations, Kyle and Ron!

What does the name sound like in Japanese?

As far as I can make out, it sounds like:

Guu no Wakusei

roughly.

It would sound like Puraneto obu Goo if you wanted to use a heavy Japanese accent on the English.
none

or if they used katakana

probably more like Puranetto. The extra ‘t’ is important.

but yeah, this is all digression
