Tap Into Rhythm Heaven In April?

Nintendo’s official stance for Rhythm Heaven’s release date is the “first half of 2009.” However, three retailers claim Rhythm Heaven is due out the first week of April. That sure beats the “rumored” November release date and fits into neatly into Nintendo’s plan to release Rhythm Heaven in the next fiscal year (read: after March 31).

Seeing Rhythm Heaven in April also fits into Nintendo of America’s trend of releasing one first party Nintendo DS title a month. This year’s plan so far is Personal Trainer: Math (Jan), Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (Feb), Pokemon: Platinum (March), and perhaps Rhythm Heaven, the only other DS game announced by Nintendo, in April.
