Help Me Pick This Up

I was going around online today and I was looking at a lot of stuff for Taiko no Tatsujin and it looks very fun, but the problem is, is that I don't know where to start.
I saw something about the English version was also released in Japan with even more stuff on it, so I'll probably get that one first if possible, but here's my question-
Where can I purchase a game with the drum as well? Could someone give me a link to a place where I can purchase a combo with Taiko no Tatsujin (The first one preferably or if any other are better than those) and the drum?

www.play-asia-com

In search box type Taiko no Tatsujin

Every game for domestic consoles should be there

That helps for buying the games and all, but I don't have a controller and they're controller is out of stock. :/

It's getting harder and harder to find the Tatakon, it seems, since the latest game isn't even available bundled with the controller. Your best bet is to look at other import sites, but I don't remember any off the top of my head, aside from YesAsia, but they have Rokudaime and drum bundle for $104 (down from $119), so try looking someplace else. I knew another site, but the name escapes me.

I found and bought Taiko no Tatsujin (The Japanese adaption of the American one) bundled with the controller for $120 bucks with insured shipping from GameBaz.com.

May be a bit pricey, but heck, I get the controller and a game to play it with.

Can you guys recommend me which Taiko no Tatsujin's to buy after this one?

I may have a spare Taiko American bundle (US game + drum) i'm willing to part with?

"Atsumare! Matsuri da! Yondaime" is what I'd recommend as your next game. You'll notice some songs in there that are in Taiko no Tatsujin - Taiko Drum Master (JP), but definitely some other ones as well, like the J-Pop songs. Then just go up from there, (Go! Go! Godaime, Tobbikiri! Anime Special, Wai Wai Happy Rokudaime, and Doka! to Oomori Nanadaime )

Wow, I ordered that Japanese version of the American Taiko no Tatsujin on December 14th, and I still haven't got it from GameBaz. Any of you guys ever buy from there? Do they usually take forever?
