ocre Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 New Rhythm Heaven game coming out for the Wii on February 13th(Ship date)! You pay $29.99! From the makers of the WarioWare series and Rhythm Heaven on the Nintendo DS, comes this game where you play through 50 rhythm-based stages (each stage features some form of narrative or zany activity presented with catchy music and great visual style!) by keeping the beat of the catchy song and attempting as few mistakes as possible. For those of you worried that this game might be hindered by questionable motion controls? Fear not! You input your beats with the A and B buttons exclusively! Also, new to this game are some stages where 2 people can play! February 13(ship date)! $29.99! No waggle! What's to think about? Gameplay Video -NEW!-: Gamexplain Video Review: (this guy claims he is horrible at keeping a beat but still loves the game, so I imagine us music-afficionados will be far more adept at it! I've played and loved the original and I'm not a musician by any means)Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhythm_Heaven_Fever Quote
Arek the Absolute Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 ocre told me to reply to this thread also this games going to be really amazing and you should buy it Quote
Modus Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 This is going to be really embarrassing to explain to my roommate but nothing will stop me from buying this. Quote
Drakken Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Super excited for this game. The original Rhythm Tengoku is one of my favorites of all time; the first time I played it I couldn't stop cracking up. Such a genius concept. Quote
Gollgagh Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 I'll probably buy the game then play the japanese version on my computer Quote
Ethan Rex Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Guys this game is just a ploy for ocre to brainwashing you into being a part of his secret army. its true no lie i swear Quote
ocre Posted February 6, 2012 Author Posted February 6, 2012 This just in! $5 off if you preorder from Canadian BestBuy.com! Note: Only works for Canadians! Quote
SenPi Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Already played through the Japanese version of this game. Soooo gooood. Without knowing *much* japanese it was easy as hell to figure everything out (except that one level that gives you orders in japanese lol) BUY THIS GAME! *DJ SymBiotiX Seal of Approval Quote
Gollgagh Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Without knowing *much* japanese it was easy as hell to figure everything out this is generally true of rhythm games I mean I am pretty okay (for an american) at Taiko no Tatsujin and I can't even pick out a single kanji; I can complete most Oni level tracks but for the hardest 10's and have even gotten several full combos on 9's. Quote
SenPi Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 haha well actually. I was playing the japanese version on my US Wii, and the US Wii doesn't have any japanese characters installed, so whenever there was dynamic text (i.e. not pictures), it would just show nothing, or a question mark. Good times Quote
ocre Posted February 10, 2012 Author Posted February 10, 2012 :3 (Note that, again, this game is not played using gestures, but with button presses!) Quote
ocre Posted February 13, 2012 Author Posted February 13, 2012 Ok, so maybe Feb 13 was the ship date. Tomorrow the game comes out! $29.99! Get pumped! Anyone else getting it? Quote
Thalzon Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Yeah, I think I will, along with Tales of the Abyss and Amalur. The niece will like it for certain, and it'll be a game I won't mind her playing. Quote
Thalzon Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 So, did anyone else get this? It's a fun little game but also freakin' hard! I didn't think I'd be having this much trouble. I'm stuck on that freakin' monkey clock. That one is killer. Quote
eternal Zero Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 I got as far as you could get on the emulator set up I have. That's just a little past Remix 5. There are a few scenarios that are as memorable as the original DS ones like the monkey clock but I really enjoy the throwbacks like the pins and spinning squares and the date situation but instead of the potions you have the ball kicking. Also I'm also kind of disappointed in the difficulty. Outside of emulator desync I've only been tripped up by the stupid fork challenge and the cellular swimmers cause I don't think they were very well conceived. Nothing's been particularly difficult to keep up with in a good way like marching in time or galactic soccer. Biggest advice for the monkey clock: close your eyes. Actually that's the best solution for every issue you'll have with this game. It's all in the music. Edit: Also I should note I'm playing the japanese version. I don't have a Wii or I would have totally picked this up. Also also: Remix 3 is probably the best thing ever forever. Quote
SenPi Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 I wouldn't say that the galactic soccer was very hard, but lockstep definitely. At first I couldn't watch it because the background changing screwed me up lol. Honestly the hardest one for me on the DS was the ping pong one. As for this one, things get a bit harder later on. Remix 10 is a bit of a beating actually. Quote

ocre Posted March 5, 2012 Author Posted March 5, 2012 So I finally got around to getting the game and I'm absolutely enjoying it. I pretty much like every rhythm game included, except for the Love Rap (the 'Fo sho!'s don't seem to be very accurately timed). My favorite one is probably the Tap Troupe one. :3 Quote

My favorite one is probably the Tap Troupe one. :3 I thought they were saying "boat show". That said I still haven't gotten past Monkey Watch. Goddamn thing only lets you miss like 10 times. Brutal.

SenPi Posted March 28, 2012 Posted March 28, 2012 I thought they were saying "boat show". HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA That's actually a joke me and some friends have going. That being said.. the english translation for that song is horrendous! Quote
Gollgagh Posted April 12, 2012 Posted April 12, 2012 So I bought this a couple weeks ago and made it all the way to the Love Rap in one sitting, getting medals on everything; but that damned song is a brick fucking wall to me, so I got the Japanese version to play instead. I actually attempted to play the game using Dolphin before buying the game, but emulation is nowhere near tight enough for a rhythm game, and that is what gave me the impetus to finally hack my Wii. a hacked Wii is a wondrous thing Quote
ocre Posted August 10, 2012 Author Posted August 10, 2012 Okay, so this game will be on sale for $4.99 at Best Buy from 8/12 - 8/18 for their big Games Blowout or whatever. Get on it, YOU CHEAPSKATES! Quote
Jamphibious Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 Yep, $5 is an AMAZING deal for this game. Its an overall charming package, with some wonderfully creative rhythm games using such a simple control scheme. Do iiiiiit. Quote
