I could pick this up for you. It'll be expensive, though. The full pack with 2 mics is AU$109.95 (about US$95). That's not counting (i'd guess) about $20 postage.

Let me know.

That's for this:

Just found this, though...and it seems JB will do international mailorder, though they're a pretty big B&M chain...

Considering the number of times I've seen the microphone in Rock Band sit unused while people wait for a chance at an instrument I can't see this taking off in the same way. The picture and video sharing is a neat idea and would probably be a lot of fun for middle school girls who are bored with myspace.

Not sure why that it is. I suspect sexual frustration.

It's already a massive hit in Europe though. Thinks there's been 4 or 5 versions already, and they're all million+ sellers.

Correct, Singstar is bigger than Guitar Hero and Rock Band combined.

I'm sure this will still sell more than anything PS3 related though.

Not a bad gift. 2 mics, a karaoke machine, a game machine, and a dvd player for 150 bucks.

I would've bought that if it were the new PS2 revision with the power supply built in.

In my limited experience it seems that most (sober) people are too self conscious to make themselves the center of attention by singing. I'm interested to see how US sales compare early next year. Its definitely a better price point than having to buy instruments with the game if all you want to do is sing.

I can't get people to shut up myself! Problem is getting them to buy games.
