#1: I do not know.
#2: I don't recall any kanji, but some do require basic hiragana.
#3: Seems a lot easier overall, but there are about a billion things to unlock. Most of them are briefly amusing, but some of the "gba" games are fun (Nekoroid!!!)

There are elevator stages, but I haven't unlocked the hard one yet (if it's there, I'm guessing it is). I have three yet to unlock, so it's probable.

GameFAQs maybe? I dunno, I haven't checked since the game came out.
The little yellow dude's games are kind of tricky to unlock; they're randomly inserted into the other characters' levels (I can't confirm this 100%, but it seems to be the case), so just keep playing though various stages until you get them all.
To unlock the bonus games and other miscellaneous things, just play through any character's stage repeatedly. Every time you complete a boss stage you'll earn a random unlockable.

The game is fun. Crazy fun.
It's also pretty easy since the control scheme is so limited.
Yeah, there are four or so minigames that require you to know japanese. One does require kanji but mostly just requires you to know the difference between kanji, hiragana, and katakana. I imagine you can probably figure all of these out by trial and error eventually if you don't know Japanese.

I have it on good authority that the game is coming to America, but I can't confirm it with any sort of traceable source, nor do I have any idea when it would be released. The DS game is coming out Q1 2005, though.

1) I'd say there is a very good chance.
2) Perhaps, but some did for the original Wario Ware, can you can stumble through them pretty easily. There are a very few microgames that rely on kanji. Who knows, you might even learn some!
3) The game is absolutly excellent. I just wrote my review, and it'll be up probably tomorrow on PlanetGameCube.com. I gave it an excellent score. It's equally as fun, or possibly more fun, than the original.
Although you can probably figure most of the games out without having to read the "What to do" text, there are a fair amount of word-games that will require some knowledge of Japanese. For example, there are 4 characters on the screen (Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji and Roman Characters). Each of the characters is a different color. Somtimes you will be asked to point to the RED one, other times you will be asked to point to the KANJI character.
The 1-banana elevator game is still in there... it is HARD. You have to beat that level in order to unlock the last character.

Are import games readily playable on DS? Like Gameboy systems.

I really think that despite the lack of sales of the first game, it would be rather disappointing to not get the release of this one. It looks like quite a lot of fun, and it's definitely a true sequel. All new mini-games and none of this "games with a different skin" Mario Party-syndrome. If we're going to be getting Wario Ware DS, I really think we should get this one as well. The first Wario Ware definitely seems like the greatest of all the GBA games, in my eyes.
