Standalone Taiko Drum ON SALE

So, Play-Asia has them in stock now for $60.

Buy Video Games for Consoles and PC - From Japan, Korea and other Regions! - Play-Asia.com

The only problem is shipping. I've been quoted at $34.70. That's more than half the cost of the drum itself. Buying it with the game and drum bundle bumps up the price by almost $130 since it adds another 20 dollars or so to shipping.

I had another link here, but I found out that they were just Chinese knock-offs. Oh, well.

They're limiting you to one drum per order, so might as well save up for getting both unless you already got the game.

Meh play asia rips people off. It's way cheaper in retail stores, the problem is that it's hard to find one that sells these drums. I got mine for 45 bucks

are there retail stores in US that stock it? or did you buy it in Japan retail store?

Thinking about it now, I think you all are confused as to what these drums actually are for. These are the WII Taiko drums, not the PS2 ones. They're expensive because they're new. I wouldn't post an entire thread dedicated to the sale of PS2 taiko drums.

Also, if you're VERY lucky, you might find a new box for Taiko Drum Master somewhere. I haven't seen one in a GameStop in forever, though.

yeah, I'm referring to the wii one. I already have the ps2 one that I got used from ebay. I can't seem to find the wii drum anywhere that's not at least 100 dollars after shipping. Playasia's shipping is ridiculous = (

AFAIK, they're the only ones that ship the legitimate Namco-branded Wii Tatacon. I bet there are others, but there are many places that sell the bootleg ones.

well, i think i would buy a new one since my wii-tatacon have some problems with the right katsu D: can't fc songs easily >.<
