The game was released on ([[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer and we aren't joking about this]]) September 11, 2001, with it releasing in Europe a month later on October 19, being available on the Platform/Playstation2 and the Platform/GameBoyColor. And yes, the two versions of the game play differently from each other.
