They are still taking custom sprite orders!!
I guess this means it's still not 100% finished, but probably that's the only thing delaying production at the moment.
I wonder why they didn't just included an option to load a custom sprite from your VMU. They could have left the many homebrew developers to code some app that loads the sprites from the CD it was burned on and transfer it to the VMU, no?
That way they could still make money buy selling custom sprites way after the game's release.
I have already received my custom sprite.
Hurry up if you haven't yet!
