Game came out 5 years ago this month, this is definitely a case of expired licenses for some of the music.
I bought the box set for this game which came with a cartridge a couple years ago. Good thing I’ve got that, now, welp.
Does it need accessories?
Not really, the Switch Taiko games work with either button presses or gyroscope. But Hori does have a taiko drum controller that was bundled with the box set in Asia and Europe. For some reason it’s harder to get the drum in America.
I wish I could feel anything as strongly as the amount Bandai Namco hates it when people play Taiko no Tatsujin. Especially the arcade machines, I feel like they’d lay down their lives rather than allow a Taiko machine to reach American soil.
For all the talk the Japanese gov’t makes of using pop culture like anime, manga and video games to introduce people to other more traditional parts of Japanese culture (such as taiko), Japanese gaming companies sure aren’t buying into it. Oh no, someone’s eating an onigiri! Quick, make it a doughnut before it gets to the West!
ikr? I have a Don Wada plush on pre-order since early October and the vendor had to delay it to this month. The hell is going on?
Do I need to download the game or will I be able to redownload it?
It seems you will be able to re-download it, as well as buy DLC later on.
Thanks!
