So does this get any different or am I just tapping in bunches and flicking for the whole game?

It's a rhythm game, so that is it

I got mine at GDC. It is pretty okay, seems a bit more forgiving than the Japanese version for some reason. The GBA version is still the best, buttons>pen

The translated lyrics are REALLY lame

Sho Nuff were you the one who leaked it to the internet

played the import and wasn't really feeling it much. I really liked the GBA game though, so I don't get why this one didn't do it for me.

btw, the drums in the GBA game are more advanced than the drums in Wii Music. True story.

The GBA game was awesomesauce.

i wonder how expensive the GBA version of this is now

Rman · « **Reply #9 on:** March 31, 2009, 12:18:04 AM »

It's 35 bucks on play-asia right now.

It's pretty much a rhythm mini-game collection.
But it's awesome, i should get back into the JP version someday, i got stuck on one level because it was to hard.

Rhythm heaven is better because it's japanese.

Rock Band shits all over this. I did like the Glee Club initially since they give you dirty looks if you fuck up.

EmCeeGrammar · « **Reply #15 on:** March 31, 2009, 02:45:14 AM »

I don't know why you guys are comparing this to Rockband. Grasping at straws? I'm sure its cool though, hoping for a console version one day.

pilonv1 · « **Reply #16 on:** March 31, 2009, 02:47:34 AM »

well someone else brought up rock band. its fun in short bursts though

Band Brothers, Wii Music, Ouendan, and Rhythm Tengoku are all more mechanically interesting (Band Brothers is a close comparison). The only feature of guitar hero/rock band that would separate it from the countless fake instrument games before it is managing the star power and deciding when to activate it. Which unfortuneatly doesn't affect anything other than points. So dull. -_-

EmCeeGrammar · « **Reply #21 on:** March 31, 2009, 07:33:24 AM »

I'm sure you understand by now that true gamers wont accept any input devices besides buttons and keyboard mouse. So I'm sure its good, but you know
"I have to use the touchscreen FUCK THIS MY DS"

pilonv1 · « **Reply #22 on:** March 31, 2009, 07:52:32 AM »

I dont mind using the DS. I just find it a bit repetitive.

The touch screen controls worked fine for me, better than expected. It just made it more confusing that I didn't think it was nearly as good as the GBA game.

You make it seem like the fake instruments still amount to just pressing a button on a large plastic object, but they actually mimic the real instruments in both feel and play style for the most part. Like, It's one thing to press a button that's coming down the screen, it's another to strum to time the note and learn pull on/off movies. The drums are also not just pressing a different button for the base peddle, you need to use hands and feet together to properly play. I have played all those games you listed and Guitar Freaks, Hero, Rock Band are much more than Band Brothers and Ouendan. The other two can't really be compared, especially Wii Music.

I guess, but I've had gh3 and played it at some acquantices places. It never really clicked with me. Not entirely sure why.

I hate how you can only go for certain perfects at certain times and you only get three attempts. Stupid japanese game design.

It's like Rhythm Tengoku, once you gold all the minigames you get to try for perfects on all of them anyway.
