Gamers who are still having trouble justifying their purchase of Sega's expensive (but oh-so-worth-it) maracas for Samba de Amigo will be pleased to learn that the company has announced a U.S. release for the game's arcade sequel, Samba de Amigo 2000. As previously reported, the update will feature new modes, new moves, and, most importantly, 40 new songs. Though no tracklist has been announced, Sega is promising a change of pace from the original's Latin flavor with a "more Caribbean feel."
