Your answer is indeed near cake rock in the zone called navel of Gatama. As the name says it's right in the middle of the map, I don't think you need to dive with someone in particular for that one.

Also this
cave in the
south west of Gatama Atoll. Where? Anyone got co-ordinates?
Why, thanks for the info. Actually that was exactly what I feared That's the one thing in the game that bother me to no end, I guess I'll have to take some time to do it :/
Beat me, I tried to befriend them a lots of time but didn't managed to do anything :/
If I'm not mistaken:

I don't have the coordinate, but you can find it quite easily if you
check carefully the drop off, the cave is near the pinkish coral, on its left I think
remember to take a dolphin with you.
The third? If I remember well the third clue talks about frozen land, and there's only one frozen land for sure
I can't wait to pick this up (along with Heavy Rain) this coming Tuesday. i love that they price this title perfectly. That price point will sell this game to those who are curious about it but not sure if they would spend $50 on the experience.
Training dolphins is so boring... If only you could change the music for it, but no, it's the same tune, over and over :'(
How long do you stay in your private reef? I spend way too long time in it, trying to make some decoration theme. My actual is named "Tapis rouge" I will send the picture later. So, do you try to make something pretty? Or just put coral where there's place?

Train the dolphins and you'll start getting requests to do dolphin shows. Eventually, this leads to you being able to befriend practically every dolphin/small whale in the game.
Befriendable animals only show up when you unlock the ability to befriend that particular one, and it ALWAYS looks different to the others... for example, the river dolphins you come accross in the game are a pinky/purple colour wheras the one you can befriend is entirely pink.
When I got the Wii this past Christmas, I had looked for EO but couldn't find it locally and its gone up in price a bit online. I saw the sequel was only $29.99 and already considered a superior game so I preordered it last week.
I love Aquanauts Holiday for the PS3, wish they had a domestic DLC release for the game a la Siren. I'm looking forward to EO 2.
You answered your own question, unwittingly 2 lines lower...

Ah crap I was afraid of that. How often and what are the conditions for your dolphins to learn new tricks? And how much do you have to train those guys each day?
To unlock the befriending stuff, I thing training a dolphin to level 2 is enough. If you really want to make it fast, train each trick until Océane tells you it's not necessary any more, then repeat and rinse until Hayako tells you about the test. Then... it's a long way
especially because you have to make 1 + 3 + 20 shows to have the trainer's secret >_>

I dunno how often, but it took me about 30mins to train 1 dolphin up enough to unlock the dude who comes to see how well you've trained it. Once that happens you can talk to Hayako for dolphin show requests.
The way I did it was to keep doing tricks until it unloicked "free train" where your dolphin goes nuts and just performs random tricks till you tell it to stop. Then I left it a few mins on auto while I made a cuppa. Once I was back in control I just kept repeating the same trick untill Oceane tells you she doesn't think that trick will get any better. Then I moved onto the next one, and so on untill they were all as good as they'll get.
So my preorder and various sites have it coming out March 2nd, did a too small of a shipment happen or something? I'd like to think it's because its going to unexpectedly do 3 million in month 1 and break SSBB's Wii sales record, but I'm, you know, sane. Anyhow that's really annoying since it'll be arriving right before my final final, and I'm going to need some time alone with the game once I start playing.
I know this game might be fun in terms of co-op with a friend over Wii Speak but how about single player. I heard there was something like a story in the game but is that true? Would it be enjoyable single player if only for it's relaxing nature of exploring the ocean in the game?

Yeah it has a very involved story mode that will take about 10 hrs to complete. Game has tons of features and quests and you can do all the stuff and it has hours upon hours of content.
My order doesn't either but I'm hoping it will somehow magically come with it anyway....but i have my doubts. OH WELL, I'm sure this game with be well worth the $30 even without Wii speak.
Never know though, we might get lucky. *crosses fingers*

Yeah mine doesn't say anything about the WiiSpeak deal either. I got my conformation e-mail yesterday and the estimated ship date isn't until Monday...

Recieved this today and all I can say is awesome, awesome game. The controls/camera in cramped environments are not very good but few games manage to pull that off.
Question: How do you guys take pictures? Game says it's better to focus on fish and then take some shots, but I feel like it's better with free camera. Oh, and are you guys using that focus option (red square)?
My pics looks blurry, and I feel like having no chance at incoming GAf contests. :'(
Haven't played the first one, thinking on picking this up to play with my daughter ..how kid friendly is this game, are the swimming controls easy to master?
I'm tired of buying Wii games supposedly targeted at 5 years old with platforming elements as hard as Mario games, this one might fit the bill.

Depends on whether you're free swimming or in zoom mode. In free swimming you can get better shots just using the free camera and not locking on. But you have to lock on first and then take pictures to unlock more info about some creatures, or to submit creature pics to Jean Eric.
On zoom mode its better to lock onto the first first. I use the focus mode on the furthest right.

You literally just point on the screen and your diver follows the pointer. It's not a kids game though, there are d-pad functions and options and camera controls. It's not complicated but its not some wii friendly casual fest either. The first game is probably better for someone younger as there are no air limits or danger. Its all about discovering and the experience.

I've come across 5 and 6 year-olds enjoying the first game just fine, the biggest complaint was not the controls but the amount of text to be read.
Less in this one, but a bit more danger - though once you know where it is (none in the first main area) it is easily avoided, besides it gives an excuse for Dad to take over a bit and be all protective.
