The game could have been purchased on its own and/or have been part of a compilation of titles accessible via subscription called Namco EZ Games. The ports were never released outside of Japan. The developer of the ports was Windream, who had also done mobile ports of other Namco titles. The game was later released as a S! App and as an EZ app for their respective phones. The port doubled as a way to promote the then upcoming Nintendo Wii remake of the game.
