VALCON Games today announced it will be distributing the Nintendo DS title Easy Piano in North America. The title is being developed by Game Life and features a 13-note keyboard on the Nintendo DS touchscreen. To make the title even more unique, the company is touting an external keyboard peripheral for use with the game on the Nintendo DS system.

The title aims to teach users how to play the piano through 10 lessons and a number of mini-games. Not only will the title have tutorials, but, also, a quickplay game where Easy Piano displays prompts to hit certain keys “similar to other popular music games currently on the market.” A U.S. KeyboardMania? Perhaps. With that, the title will feature “some of the world’s most famous songs, spanning time and genres.” The game will feature two difficulty levels, a creation mode to allow players to record up to four three-minute-long songs and a number of other musical instruments will be featured along with the piano.

Right now, the goal for VALCON is to have the title out in the territory in early 2010. If you live in Europe, however, you only have a couple of weeks to wait for this one – Game Life is releasing the PAL version on Nov. 20th
