Since we can run stuff from SD cards now, I went ahead and put it on my Wii again. The first things I noticed were the new Zelda trailer (a train?

) and a note that there was a Rythm Heaven demo offered on the service.

Just thought I'd share that for anyone curious about this game like I am.

I was looking for the Nintendo Channel topic to put this info in it but I went back 30 pages or so and couldn't find it. I guess we can turn this into the offical topic.

Stratos · « **Reply #2 on:** March 25, 2009, 04:56:55 PM »

I was thinking about that myself. I looked back a couple pages to find either the Rhythm Heaven page or the Nintendo Channel topic but didn't find it either. Should I rename it to be the Nintendo Channel demo thread?

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #3 on:** March 25, 2009, 05:03:34 PM »

No there is actually a topic about DS demos.The Nintendo channel was in Nintendo console.It has been a while since it was updated. Just change this to the Rhythm Heaven topic.One of my recent Nintendo Power has an article on this game.I'll post the info when I get home.

How can you create a topic about Rhythm Heaven and fail to mention my infamous Rhythm Tengoku thread? You should be ashamed.

I played the demo for Rhythm Heaven yesterday. I really liked the first two "games". I'm going to pick this up when it comes out.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #6 on:** March 26, 2009, 05:30:16 PM »

Vudu that is the first time I saw that topic.

vudu · « **Reply #7 on:** March 26, 2009, 05:35:37 PM »

Well, it is over 2.5 years old. It died long before you got here.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #8 on:** March 26, 2009, 05:39:14 PM »

Yes that was my point.

So Vudu what is this game about?

vudu · « **Reply #9 on:** March 26, 2009, 06:00:33 PM »

RHYTHM

RHYTHM

In Heaven!

I played the demo and I just loved it! It's hilarious. The Glee Club one was great. I haven't smiled like this from a game in ages.

I played the demo on the Nintendo Channel, I wasn't too impressed to be honest. It seems alright, but not something I would pay $30 for.

Stratos · « **Reply #16 on:** March 30, 2009, 03:19:27 AM »

It strikes me as a musical based Wario Ware.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #17 on:** March 30, 2009, 04:01:34 AM »

I played the demo and how Stratos describes it is how I would sum up my feelings on it.
It is a pretty unique concept.

Spak-Spang · « **Reply #18 on:** March 30, 2009, 12:33:06 PM »

Exactly. It is a pretty fun game. I do not feel it is as complicated as many of the other music games, but I can see some of the games getting difficult, and you definitely play to the Rhythm of the game. I beat you could play some of the levels blind.

This question is directed to the users who played the Japanese version and the English version: How does the English vocals stand up to the Japanese vocals? Better, same, or worse?

Watched a video on Youtube with the Frog Dancing game. Loved that song to peices. =D

That's because the game is made by the same team at Nintendo that makes the Wario Ware games.

Correct, R&D1 developed the GBA/DS/Wii Wario Ware games along with both Rhythm Tengoku/Gold. And the Metriod games outside of the Prime series... and I think they supervised Good Feel for Wario Land: Shake It.

Though I'm not sure on the last one. Might be wrong.

I bet you could play some of the levels blind.

This is true of almost all of the levels. Aside from the initial pass through to learn the controls, everything can be done by simply listening. As a matter of fact in some levels I HAVE TO close my eyes and play or else I can't do it. It's a pretty bizarre experience.

Overall, I'm enjoying the game thus far. It's very addicting and it's really quirky and unique. For someone like me I'd gladly drop $30 on it because these offbeat titles are right up my alley. Others may not find it quite as endearing, but the rhythm gameplay is definitely unique even amongst a sea of similar titles.

For those who have played the demo, keep in mind what was showcased there was only 1 of many mini games. You'll definitely be surprised by some of the cool ideas they came up with for the mini games.
